# Usage with CMake
|
|
## Build
|
|
First clone mapnik from github and initialize submodules
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik.git
|
|
cd mapnik
|
|
git submodule update --init
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Make sure that all dependencies are installed.
|
|
|
|
All available cmake options are listed at the top of [CMakeLists.txt](../CMakeLists.txt).
|
|
Pass your options while configuring e.g.: `cmake -DBUILD_DEMO_VIEWER=OFF ..` to disable the build of the demo viewer application.
|
|
|
|
To quickstart open a console in the root mapnik dir and execute the following commands: (Pass all options and dependency dirs after `-DBUILD_TEST=OFF`)
|
|
```
|
|
> cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_TEST=OFF
|
|
> cmake --build build --target install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To use Mapnik in your project add the following lines to your CMakeLists.tzt.
|
|
```
|
|
find_package(mapnik CONFIG REQUIRED)
|
|
[...]
|
|
target_link_libraries(mytarget ... mapnik::core mapnik::mapnik)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
All mapnik executables and targets are exported within `mapnikTargets.cmake`.
|
|
|
|
The plugin dir is available in the variable `MAPNIK_PLUGINS_DIR`.
|
|
The font path is is available in the variable `MAPNIK_FONTS_DIR`.
|
|
|
|
## Recommendations
|
|
|
|
If you target a specific platform, it is recommended to create a toolchain file and set all the options and library path that you would normally set via cmd line options.
|
|
If you are using a recent cmake version (>=3.19?), it is recommended to use a CMakePreset instead. https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-presets.7.html
