Conan package
Closed this issue · 11 comments
Dear ImGui doesn't fit within the traditional "packageable" scheme, it is meant to be copied and compiled by the user inside their project.
If you want to create a Conan setup please feel free to do so, but it's not something I would do or maintain myself seeing I don't know its ecosystem, it's up to Conan users.
Will close this as there is no task/issue for imgui that I can see, but if please us you if you make it, will add it to the Wiki-Links section.
if i create conan package for your library, do you want to support it and update every imgui release?
No I likely won't support it, it has to be supported by people actually using it. Creating a package if you are not a user of the library yourself is possibly not a good idea, if I may say so.
Ok, i understand you.
In case anyone runs across this, don't think conan is the only C++ dependency manager at all. hunter is a pure CMake dependency manager for those that use cmake, it can bring in dependencies from about any source that uses any build system (or embeds straight), no python or anything else needed but CMake itself, in addition, although a library itself can register itself as a dependency into the system, users can do it pretty trivially as well (and grabbing imgui as a dependency is pretty trivial since you can just add it's source and header directories in the single call). This really is something the user community should do either by each just setting up the dependency information in their own projects, or adding a hunter repo that manages it (or PR'ing it into the main repo).
Thanks for the precision @OvermindDL1. Closing this topic as discussed.
Links will be posted in the readme and/or wiki as submitted.
Hi there!
Just reporting about Conan package for imgui.
We provided a recipe to build, package and distribute imgui. The original artifacts were preserved, including the license.
Conan recipe at Github:

Conan package at Bintray:

@FreePhoenix888 Please, open an issue to https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/issues so we can discuss about this. This issue is closed and it's not related to your error.
Plus, something is missing, your conanfile.txt shows imgui, but it does not have zlib listed. At same time, your build output shows zlib from Conan ...
