Introduction

conan-xlnt simplifies the process of using xlnt (a modern C++ library for manipulating spreadsheets in memory and reading/writing them from/to XLSX files) within projects managed by Conan. This repository provides the necessary Conan recipe to build and consume xlnt as a Conan package, ensuring consistent builds across different environments.

Features

• Easy Integration: Seamlessly integrate xlnt into your Conan-based C++ projects.
• Cross-Platform: Build and use xlnt across various operating systems and compilers supported by Conan.
• Dependency Management: Conan handles xlnt and its transitive dependencies, simplifying your build process.

Installation & Usage

Using in Your Project

To use xlnt in your Conan-enabled C++ project, add it to your conanfile.txt or conanfile.py:

conanfile.txt:

[requires]
xlnt/1.5.0

conanfile.py:

from conan import ConanFile

class MyProjectConan(ConanFile):
    requires = "xlnt/1.5.0"
    generators = "CMakeDeps", "CMakeToolchain" # Or other generators as needed

Then, install the dependencies:

conan install . --output-folder=build --build=missing

And link against xlnt in your CMakeLists.txt (if using CMake):

find_package(xlnt REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(your_target_name xlnt::xlnt)

Building Locally

To build the xlnt Conan package from this repository locally, navigate to the root of this repository and run:

conan create . --build=missing

This command will build the package and place it in your local Conan cache.
