如何使用 Conan 选择 Ninja 作为 CMake 生成器？

Question

在尝试按照 Conan 的入门指南创建包时，我在尝试运行 conan create . demo/testing 时遇到了困难。它不断尝试使用 MinGW Makefiles 作为 CMake 生成器，但我想改用 Ninja。

我的食谱如下：

from conan import ConanFile
from conan.tools.cmake import CMakeToolchain, CMake, cmake_layout


class HelloConan(ConanFile):
    name = "hello"
    version = "0.1"

    # Optional metadata
    license = "<Put the package license here>"
    author = "<Put your name here> <And your email here>"
    url = "<Package recipe repository url here, for issues about the package>"
    description = "<Description of Hello here>"
    topics = ("<Put some tag here>", "<here>", "<and here>")

    # Binary configuration
    settings = "os", "compiler", "build_type", "arch"
    options = {"shared": [True, False], "fPIC": [True, False]}
    default_options = {"shared": False, "fPIC": True}

    # Sources are located in the same place as this recipe, copy them to the recipe
    exports_sources = "CMakeLists.txt", "src/*", "include/*"

    def config_options(self):
        if self.settings.os == "Windows":
            del self.options.fPIC

    def layout(self):
        cmake_layout(self)

    def generate(self):
        tc = CMakeToolchain(self)
        tc.generate()

    def build(self):
        cmake = CMake(self)
        cmake.configure()
        cmake.build()

    def package(self):
        cmake = CMake(self)
        cmake.install()

    def package_info(self):
        self.cpp_info.libs = ["hello"]

wiki 指定将柯南设置 cmake_generator 设置为 Ninja，如下所示：

$ conan config set general.cmake_generator=Ninja

我已经确认此设置现在在我的 [general] 类别下的 conan.conf 文件中，但似乎没有效果。与 CONAN_CMAKE_GENERATOR 环境变量相同。

我尝试将配方的构建部分更改为：

def build(self):
    cmake = CMake(self, generator="Ninja")
    cmake.configure()
    cmake.build()

但这只会在尝试运行:

时出现此错误

ERROR: hello/0.1@demo/testing: Error in build() method, line 36
        cmake = CMake(self, generator="Ninja")
        TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'generator'

作为参考，我使用的是Python版本3.10.1和柯南版本1.46.0

您正在遵循为柯南 2.0 设计的 CMake helper imported directly from conans. However, you imported the new CMake 助手的方法签名。它们不兼容。

您可以保留新的助手，但您需要在 conanbuild.conf 中定义您的生成器。（尚未记录）

但是，您也可以直接在 CMakeToolchain 构造函数中设置它：

tc = CMakeToolchain(self, generator="Ninja")

但是它很无聊并且硬编码在你的食谱上，所以作为替代方案，你可以直接在你的 global.conf 文件中配置它。

echo tools.cmake.cmaketoolchain:generator=Ninja >> %USERPROFILE%\.conan\global.conf

这些功能是实验性的，应该尽快改进，因为它们将成为柯南 2.0 的标准。阅读文档以防行为发生变化。
