Instructions are unclear.

I'm in exactly the same boat as issue #3.
~/projects/steam-input-test/build$ cmake ..
CMake Warning (dev) at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:438 (message):
The package name passed to `find_package_handle_standard_args`
(STEAMWORKSSDK) does not match the name of the calling package
(SteamworksSDK). This can lead to problems in calling code that expects
`find_package` result variables (e.g., `_FOUND`) to follow a certain
pattern.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
SteamworksSDKCI/cmake/FindSteamworksSDK.cmake:54 (find_package_handle_standard_args)
CMakeLists.txt:11 (find_package)
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

Maybe I'm not understanding the purpose of this repository?
I expected to be able to add a git submodule and a few cmake lines to my project and start using SteamworksSDK.
Is that the intention or am I missing something?
I've created a failing attempt here.

Hi,
The idea is that you have two files in the cmake directory:
- CMakeLists.txt: an example CMake file that adds this repository as a dependency in your own cmake file, not mandatory you can integrate it another way
- FindSteamworksSDK.cmake: this file will be used by
find_packagewhen you will require it exactly like you did in your own CMakeLists project example. To know how CMake looks up for this file see https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/find_package.html#search-procedure
CMake has no universal standard way to be used so there's no "simple instructions" to be done here, those are just an example to give a user who already knows how CMake works, how can this project be integrated. But it's not meant to be a copy paste example.
All the best,
Julian
It would be useful to have a copy-paste example for "someone" who doesn't know how to use CMake properly.
It's still unclear to me what's wrong with my testcase at: https://github.com/jordan-woyak/steam-input-test
And this seems like an issue not of my own? (STEAMWORKSSDK) does not match the name of the calling package (SteamworksSDK).
I realize you don't need to cater to CMake noobs but if the intention was to make it easier for others to use SteamworksSDK maybe that's necessary.
No the intention was to provide the Steam SDK as a CMake module, not to make it "easier to use it on CMake". I'm sorry.
Regarding your project, you can try to add:
project(steam-input-test VERSION 0.1.0)
list(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "SteamworksSDKCI/cmake")
include(SteamworksSDKCI/cmake/CMakeLists.txt)
# ... your code here
