auto-cmake

CMakeLists.txt file creation automation written in Python.

Config file

Variable	Definition
project_name	Sets the project name
project_version	Sets the project version
configuration	Sets the project's configuration. Debug or Release for examples
required packages	Sets the `find_package` variables. This packages are set with REQUIRED tag
includes	Gather header files (.h, .hpp) files from the specified directoriess
sources	Gather source files (.c, .cpp) files from the specified directories
project_type	Sets the project type which are win32, executable or library
precompile_headers	Adds specified standard libraries to target_precompile_headers function
subdirectory_path	Sets the additional CMakeLists.txt project as add_subdirectory
cxx_version	Sets the cpp version
extra_cmake_path	Sets the path for extra_cmake.txt

includes and sources variables have three additional variables:
- As default the program is search for files as recursive from the working directory
- Recursive search results are relative path to working directory
- include_dirs : The program is going to search files from these directories. At least one specified directory disables the recursive search
- exclude_dirs : The program exclude the specified directories from the recursive search
- exclude_files : The program exclude the specified files from the recursive search result
The header and library variables from the packages that are specified in the required_packages are added automatically to include_directories and target_link_libraries functions
The subdirectories under the subdirectory_path are added automatically to target_link_libraries

extra_cmake.txt file contains the additional CMake functions or declarations
There are nine places that new arguments can be inserted:
- AFTER STARTING : After the configuration variable
- AFTER PACKAGES : After the required_packages variable
- AFTER HEADERS : After the include_directories function
- AFTER SOURCES : After the set(SOURCE_FILES) function
- AFTER EXECUTABLE : After the target_link_libraries function
- AFTER PRECOMPILE : After the target_precompile_headers function
- AFTER SUBDIRECTORY : After the add_subdirectory functions
- AFTER CXX VERSION : After the cxx_version variable
- AFTER CPACK : After the CPack declarations
The definition must start with ### BEGIN and follow with place name. For example ### BEGIN AFTER STARTING
The definition must end with ### END and follow with place name. For example ### END AFTER STARTING
For example:

### BEGIN AFTER STARTING

list(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmakes")

### END AFTER STARTING

Command	Definition
verbose	Enable additional terminal outputs
