cmake boilerplate for a C++ project. Originally a fork of cpp starter project.

• A C++ compiler
• cmake

• ccache
• clang-format
• clang-tidy
• cmake-format
• cppcheck
• dot
• doxygen

The project is setup as a template and needs to be setup before it can be used:

./setup.sh

Run setup.sh -h for more options

cmake --preset default

cmake --build build

cmake --build build --config Release

Tests are enabled by default in debug mode and disabled by default in release. They can be explicitly controlled with -D<PROJECT_NAME>_BUILD_TESTING.

./build/bin/Debug/<project_name>_test

This command will build (if not built) and run the tests then print a coverage report.

Coverage uses lcov. If lcov is not installed it tries to use nix to run lcov. If neither is found an error is thrown. Disable coverage with -D<PROJECT_NAME>_ENABLE_COVERAGE=NO (off by default in release mode).

cmake --build build -t coverage_<project_name>_test
