# setup-cpp
|
|
|
|
Install all the tools required for building and testing C++/C projects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting up a **cross-platform** environment for building and testing C++/C projects is a bit tricky. Each platform has its own compilers, and each of them requires a different installation procedure. This package aims to fix this issue.
|
|
|
|
This package is designed to be **modular** and as **minimal** as possible. This will allow you to install the tools you want. It is continuously tested on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
|
|
|
|
The package can be used locally or from CI services like GitHub Actions.
|
|
|
|

|
# Usage
|
|
|
|
# From Terminal
|
|
|
|
You should download the executable file or the js file (if Nodejs installed), and run it with the available options.
|
|
|
|
Tip: You can automate downloading using `wget`, `curl`, or other similar tools.
|
|
|
|
### Executable
|
|
|
|
Download the executable for your platform from [here](https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/tag/v0.5.5), and run it with the available options.
|
|
|
|
An example that installs llvm, cmake, ninja, ccache, and vcpkg:
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
# windows example (open shell as admin)
|
|
curl -LJO "https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/download/v0.5.5/setup_cpp_windows.exe"
|
|
./setup_cpp_windows --compiler llvm --cmake true --ninja true --ccache true --vcpkg true
|
|
|
|
RefreshEnv.cmd # reload the environment
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
# linux example
|
|
wget "https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/download/v0.5.5/setup_cpp_linux"
|
|
chmod +x setup_cpp_linux
|
|
sudo ./setup_cpp_linux --compiler llvm --cmake true --ninja true --ccache true --vcpkg true
|
|
|
|
source ~/.profile # reload the environment
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
# mac example
|
|
wget "https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/download/v0.5.5/setup_cpp_mac"
|
|
chmod +x setup_cpp_mac
|
|
sudo ./setup_cpp_mac --compiler llvm --cmake true --ninja true --ccache true --vcpkg true
|
|
|
|
source ~/.profile # reload the environment
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
NOTE: In the `compiler` entry, you can specify the version after `-` like `llvm-11.0.0`.
|
|
For the tools, instead of `true` that chooses the default version, you can pass a specific version.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: you will not need `sudo` if you are already a root user (e.g., in a GitLab runner).
|
|
|
|
### With Nodejs
|
|
|
|
Download the `setup_cpp.js` file form [here](https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/download/v0.5.5/setup_cpp.js), and run it with the available options.
|
|
|
|
On Windows:
|
|
|
|
Open the shell as admin, download via `curl`, then install
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
# open shell as admin
|
|
curl -LJO "https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/download/v0.5.5/setup_cpp.js"
|
|
node ./setup_cpp.js --compiler llvm --cmake true --ninja true --ccache true --vcpkg true
|
|
|
|
RefreshEnv.cmd # reload the environment
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On Linux or Mac:
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
wget "https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/download/v0.5.5/setup_cpp.js"
|
|
sudo node ./setup_cpp.js --compiler llvm --cmake true --ninja true --ccache true --vcpkg true
|
|
|
|
source ~/.profile # reload the environment
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Inside GitHub Actions
|
|
|
|
Here is a complete cross-platform example that tests llvm, gcc, and msvc. It also uses cmake, ninja, vcpkg, and cppcheck.
|
|
|
|
`.github/workflows/ci.yml`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
compiler:
|
|

|
|
- gcc
|
|
# you can specify the version after `-` like `llvm-13.0.0`.
|
|
include:
|
|
- os: "windows-latest"
|
|
compiler: "msvc"
|
|
steps:
|
|

|
|
uses: actions/cache@v2
|
|

|
|

|
|

|

|
|
restore-keys: |
|
|
${{ runner.os }}-${{ env.BUILD_TYPE }}
|
|
|
|
- name: Setup Cpp
|
|
uses: aminya/setup-cpp@v1
|
|
with:
|
|
compiler: ${{ matrix.compiler }}
|
|
cmake: true
|
|
ninja: true
|
|
vcpkg: true
|
|
cppcheck: true # instead of `true`, which chooses the default version, you can pass a specific version.
|
|
# add any tool that you need here...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Inside Docker
|
|
|
|
Here is an example for using setup_cpp to make a builder image that has the Cpp tools you need.
|
|
|
|
```dockerfile
|
|
# debian
|
|
FROM debian:bullseye
|
|
|
|
# add setup_cpp
|
|
WORKDIR "/"
|
|
RUN apt-get update -qq
|
|
RUN apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends wget
|
|
RUN wget --no-verbose "https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/releases/download/v0.5.5/setup_cpp_linux"
|
|
RUN chmod +x ./setup_cpp_linux
|
|
|
|
# install llvm, cmake, ninja, and ccache
|
|
RUN ./setup_cpp_linux --compiler llvm --cmake true --ninja true --ccache true
|
|
|
|
# reload the environment
|
|
RUN source ~/.profile
|
|
|
|
ENTRYPOINT [ "/bin/sh" ]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See [this folder](https://github.com/aminya/setup-cpp/tree/master/building/docker), for some dockerfile examples.
|
|
|
|
If you want to build the ones included, then run:
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
docker build -f ./building/docker/debian.dockerfile -t setup_cpp .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Where you should use the path to the docker after `-f`.
|
|
|
|
After build, run the following to start an interactive shell in your container
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
docker run -it setup_cpp
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Inside Docker inside GitHub Actions
|
|
|
|
You can use the docker file discussed in the previous section inside GitHub Actions like the following:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
jobs:
|
|
Docker:
|
|
runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
|
|
strategy:
|
|
matrix:
|
|
os:
|
|
- ubuntu-20.04
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
|
|
- name: Build
|
|
id: docker_build
|
|
run: |
|
|
docker build -f ./building/docker/debian.dockerfile -t setup_cpp .
|
|
env:
|
|
ACTIONS_ALLOW_UNSECURE_COMMANDS: true
|
|
```
