Dynamic graph

Introduction

This package provide tools to ease the use of the dynamic-graph package for building the entities, their python bindings and install them.

Usage

In order to build a package containing dynamic-graph entities one need to fetch the dependencies first. In order to to this one can use the [pkg-config](@ref md_doc_pkg_config).

find_package(dynamic-graph REQUIRED")
find_package(dynamic-graph-graph REQUIRED")

and then a target my_target:

target_link_libraries(my_target dynamic-graph::dynamic-graph)
target_link_libraries(my_target dynamic-graph::dynamic-graph-python)

Then one need to create a library based on C++ and then build the python dynamic graph module:

################################
# Build a dynamic graph module #
################################
add_library(my_dg_plugin SHARED
    src/my_first_entity.cpp
    src/a_second_controller.cpp
    src/some_dynamic_graph_operators.cpp
)
# Add the include dependencies.
target_include_directories(
    my_dg_plugin PUBLIC $<BUILD_INTERFACE:${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/include>
                        $<INSTALL_INTERFACE:include>)
# Link the dependencies.
target_link_libraries(my_dg_plugin dynamic-graph::dynamic-graph)
target_link_libraries(my_dg_plugin dynamic-graph::dynamic-graph-python)
target_link_libraries(my_dg_plugin <some other dependencies>)
# Install the target and it's python bindings.
install_dynamic_graph_plugin_python_bindings(my_dg_plugin)
# Install the plugin.
get_dynamic_graph_plugin_install_path(plugin_install_path)
install(
TARGETS my_dg_plugin
EXPORT ${PROJECT_NAME}Targets
LIBRARY DESTINATION ${plugin_install_path}
ARCHIVE DESTINATION ${plugin_install_path}
RUNTIME DESTINATION ${plugin_install_path}
INCLUDES
DESTINATION include)

This little piece of code creates a library called my_dg_plugin and it’s python bindings my_dg_plugin_dg_wrapper and install them properly.
