#[[ Build options: * BUILD_SHARED_LIBS (default off) builds as a shared library (if HTTPLIB_COMPILE is ON) * HTTPLIB_USE_OPENSSL_IF_AVAILABLE (default on) * HTTPLIB_USE_ZLIB_IF_AVAILABLE (default on) * HTTPLIB_REQUIRE_OPENSSL (default off) * HTTPLIB_REQUIRE_ZLIB (default off) * HTTPLIB_USE_BROTLI_IF_AVAILABLE (default on) * HTTPLIB_USE_CERTS_FROM_MACOSX_KEYCHAIN (default on) * HTTPLIB_REQUIRE_BROTLI (default off) * HTTPLIB_COMPILE (default off) * HTTPLIB_INSTALL (default on) * HTTPLIB_TEST (default off) * BROTLI_USE_STATIC_LIBS - tells Cmake to use the static Brotli libs (only works if you have them installed). * OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS - tells Cmake to use the static OpenSSL libs (only works if you have them installed). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After installation with Cmake, a find_package(httplib COMPONENTS OpenSSL ZLIB Brotli) is available. This creates a httplib::httplib target (if found and if listed components are supported). It can be linked like so: target_link_libraries(your_exe httplib::httplib) The following will build & install for later use. Linux/macOS: mkdir -p build cd build cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. sudo cmake --build . --target install Windows: mkdir build cd build cmake .. runas /user:Administrator "cmake --build . --config Release --target install" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These variables are available after you run find_package(httplib) * HTTPLIB_HEADER_PATH - this is the full path to the installed header (e.g. /usr/include/httplib.h). * HTTPLIB_IS_USING_OPENSSL - a bool for if OpenSSL support is enabled. * HTTPLIB_IS_USING_ZLIB - a bool for if ZLIB support is enabled. * HTTPLIB_IS_USING_BROTLI - a bool for if Brotli support is enabled. * HTTPLIB_IS_USING_CERTS_FROM_MACOSX_KEYCHAIN - a bool for if support of loading system certs from the Apple Keychain is enabled. * HTTPLIB_IS_COMPILED - a bool for if the library is compiled, or otherwise header-only. * HTTPLIB_INCLUDE_DIR - the root path to httplib's header (e.g. /usr/include). * HTTPLIB_LIBRARY - the full path to the library if compiled (e.g. /usr/lib/libhttplib.so). * httplib_VERSION or HTTPLIB_VERSION - the project's version string. * HTTPLIB_FOUND - a bool for if the target was found. Want to use precompiled headers (Cmake feature since v3.16)? It's as simple as doing the following (before linking): target_precompile_headers(httplib::httplib INTERFACE "${HTTPLIB_HEADER_PATH}") ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FindPython3 requires Cmake v3.12 ARCH_INDEPENDENT option of write_basic_package_version_file() requires Cmake v3.14 ]] cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14.0 FATAL_ERROR) # Get the CPPHTTPLIB_VERSION value and use it as a version # This gets the string with the CPPHTTPLIB_VERSION value from the header. # This is so the maintainer doesn't actually need to update this manually. file(STRINGS httplib.h _raw_version_string REGEX "CPPHTTPLIB_VERSION \"([0-9]+\\.[0-9]+\\.[0-9]+)\"") # Needed since git tags have "v" prefixing them. # Also used if the fallback to user agent string is being used. string(REGEX MATCH "([0-9]+\\.?)+" _httplib_version "${_raw_version_string}") project(httplib VERSION ${_httplib_version} LANGUAGES CXX) # Change as needed to set an OpenSSL minimum version. # This is used in the installed Cmake config file. set(_HTTPLIB_OPENSSL_MIN_VER "1.1.1") # Allow for a build to require OpenSSL to pass, instead of just being optional option(HTTPLIB_REQUIRE_OPENSSL "Requires OpenSSL to be found & linked, or fails build."
