vcpkg_from_github
Download and extract a project from GitHub. Enables support for install --head
.
Usage:
vcpkg_from_github(
OUT_SOURCE_PATH <SOURCE_PATH>
REPO <Microsoft/cpprestsdk>
[REF <v2.0.0>]
[SHA512 <45d0d7f8cc350...>]
[HEAD_REF <master>]
)
Parameters:
OUT_SOURCE_PATH
Specifies the out-variable that will contain the extracted location.
This should be set to SOURCE_PATH
by convention.
REPO
The organization or user and repository on GitHub.
REF
A stable git commit-ish (ideally a tag) that will not change contents. This should not be a branch.
For repositories without official releases, this can be set to the full commit id of the current latest master.
If REF
is specified, SHA512
must also be specified.
SHA512
The SHA512 hash that should match the archive (https://github.com/${REPO}/archive/${REF}.tar.gz).
This is most easily determined by first setting it to 1
, then trying to build the port. The error message will contain the full hash, which can be copied back into the portfile.
HEAD_REF
The unstable git commit-ish (ideally a branch) to pull for --head
builds.
For most projects, this should be master
. The chosen branch should be one that is expected to be always buildable on all supported platforms.
Notes:
At least one of REF
and HEAD_REF
must be specified, however it is preferable for both to be present.
This exports the VCPKG_HEAD_VERSION
variable during head builds.
