Conan

swaggercpp ships a Conan recipe under packaging/conan/. You can consume it from ConanCenter once published, or validate/build locally from the recipe in this repository.

conanfile.txt for consumers

[requires]
swaggercpp/0.2.1

[generators]
CMakeDeps
CMakeToolchain

[options]
&:shared = False

Then:

conan install . --output-folder=build --build=missing -s compiler.cppstd=23
cmake --preset conan-default
cmake --build --preset conan-release

CMake glue

The recipe declares CMake targets that find_package picks up:

find_package(swaggercpp CONFIG REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(my_app PRIVATE swaggercpp::swaggercpp)
target_compile_features(my_app PRIVATE cxx_std_23)

Local validation

To build and test the recipe against a checkout of the source tree:

conan create . --test-folder=packaging/conan/test_package -s compiler.cppstd=23

This creates the package in your local Conan cache and runs the test package (a minimal C++ program that links against swaggercpp::swaggercpp).

conanfile.py highlights

The recipe in packaging/conan/conanfile.py:

• Declares the three runtime dependencies — nlohmann_json, yaml-cpp, httplib — and pins compatible versions.
• Exposes options to toggle tests/benchmarks/examples, all off by default for consumers.
• Emits a CMake package config named swaggercpp with a namespaced target swaggercpp::swaggercpp.
• Marks minimum compiler.cppstd=23.

Typical consumer profile

arch=x86_64
build_type=Release
