Expand Up @@ -57,3 +57,38 @@ The ``Premake`` build helper is affected by these ``[conf]`` variables:
- ``tools.build:verbosity`` which accepts one of ``quiet`` or ``verbose`` and sets the ``--quiet`` flag in ``Premake.configure()``

- ``tools.compilation:verbosity`` which accepts one of ``quiet`` or ``verbose`` and sets the ``--verbose`` flag in ``Premake.build()``

Extra configuration
-------------------

By default, typical Premake configurations are ``Release`` and ``Debug``.
This configurations could vary depending on the used Premake script.

For example,

.. code-block:: lua

workspace "MyProject"
configurations { "Debug", "Release", "DebugDLL", "ReleaseDLL" }

If you wish to use a different configuration than ``Release`` or ``Debug``, you can override the configuration from ``PremakeDeps``
and ``Premake`` generator:

.. code-block:: python

class MyRecipe(Conanfile):
...
def _premake_configuration(self):
return str(self.settings.build_type) + ("DLL" if self.options.shared else "")

def generate(self):
deps = PremakeDeps(self)
deps.configuration = self._premake_configuration
deps.generate()
tc = PremakeToolchain(self)
tc.generate()

def build(self):
premake = Premake(self)
premake.configure()
premake.build(workspace="MyProject", configuration=self._premake_configuration)
