This is a fork of json2cpp that replaces the build system with a conan 2 based one.
json2cpp compiles a json file into static constexpr C++20 data structures that can be used at compile time or runtime.
- Literally 0 runtime overhead for loading the statically compiled JSON resource
- Fully constexpr capable if you want to make compile-time decisions based on the JSON resource file
- A
.cppfirewall file is provided for you, if you have a large resource and don't want to pay the cost of compiling it more than once (but for normal size files it is VERY fast to compile, they are just data structures) - nlohmann::json compatible API (should be a drop-in replacement, some features might still be missing)
- valijson adapter file provided
See the test folder for examples for building resources, using the valijson adapter, constexpr usage of resources, and firewalled usage of resources.
Also see the test_package for an example on how to use it with conan 2.
The conan package can be found on my remote. This can be added with
conan remote add mwudenka https://conan2.wudenka.deTo list the available versions run
conan search json2cpp -r=mwudenkaTo install its dependencies run
conan install . -pr:h=default -s:h build_type=Debug -pr:b=default -u --build=missing -c tools.cmake.cmaketoolchain:generator="Ninja Multi-Config" -c tools.cmake.cmake_layout:build_folder_vars="['settings.compiler']" -c user.build:tests=True -c user.build:large_tests=TrueNow there should be cmake presets ready for you to be used.
conan build . -pr:h=default -s:h build_type=Debug -pr:b=default -u --build=missing -c tools.cmake.cmaketoolchain:generator="Ninja Multi-Config" -c tools.cmake.cmake_layout:build_folder_vars="['settings.compiler']" -c user.build:tests=True -c user.build:large_tests=TrueTo create a conan package run e.g.
conan create . --user mwudenka --channel snapshot -pr:h=default -s:h build_type=Release -pr:b=default -u --build=missing
