Re: [yocto] Integration of Conan Package Manager into the Yocto Project
We know that this approach is a bit different from the Yocto way of building all from sources and we acknowledge the benefits of doing so when building for specific hardware requirements. However, this integration has been requested by Conan users already managing their packages with Conan for other platforms that wanted to be able to deploy their libraries or applications into a Linux image generated with Yocto. This is the first step towards that integration and we have proved it works, but there is still room for improvement and we are fully open to any suggestions. We will take a look at the fetcher approach that looks quite smooth and a bit easier for users too. Thanks a lot!

Re: [yocto] Integration of Conan Package Manager into the Yocto Project
Pulling down things from the network in do_install() is not the best option. Is reproducibility and integrity of such downloads guaranteed? What about the component licensing, where is that checked (against upstream changes)? Also, yocto's download caching and mirroring facility is side-stepped entirely. The typical 'Yocto way' would be to write a specific conan fetcher for bitbake, so that you can specify SRC_URI = "conan://..." in recipes: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/bitbake/lib/bb/fetch2?h=master-next Generally, if someone is doing system integration with Yocto and has access to the source code, they might just write actual component recipes for building from source, as the presented workflow with building via SDK and artifactory binary uploads is awkward, and all benefits that happen when yocto is able to build directly from source code are lost.

[yocto] Integration of Conan Package Manager into the Yocto Project
Hi! We have developed an integration with Yocto for the open-source Conan C/C++ package manager. This integration includes the ability to cross-build packages with a Yocto SDK Toolchain and later deploy them in the Yocto build. We have created a blog post with a brief introduction to the Yocto Project and the announcement of the integration: https://blog.conan.io/2019/07/26/Conan-Yocto-integration.html And a detailed section in our documentation with the configuration for the meta-conan layer and the Bitbake recipes for the packages: https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/integrations/cross_platform/yocto.html Feedback is welcomed. Thanks a lot! -- ___ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
