# Ccache.cmake

A simple, Xcode compatible _Ccache_ integration for _CMake_, based on [this](https://crascit.com/2016/04/09/using-ccache-with-cmake) article by Craig Scott.

 

## About

[Ccache](https://ccache.dev) is a compiler cache that can drastically improve build times for C and C++ projects.

This script makes it easy to configure a CMake project to use Ccache by adding the configuration option `USE_CCACHE` which will active Ccache support when enabled.

Build-specific environmental variables can be set with the `CCACHE_OPTIONS` configuration parameter.

It is currently compatible with _Makefile_, _Ninja_ and _Xcode_ generators.

Example usage:

```bash

cmake . -DUSE_CCACHE=YES -DCCACHE_OPTIONS="CCACHE_CPP2=true;CCACHE_SLOPPINESS=clang_index_store"

```

## How to integrate

### Using [CPM.cmake](https://github.com/TheLartians/CPM) (recommended)

Run the following from the project's root directory to add CPM to your project.

```bash

mkdir -p cmake

wget -O cmake/CPM.cmake https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheLartians/CPM/master/cmake/CPM.cmake

```

Add the following lines to the project's `CMakeLists.txt` after calling `project(...)`.

```CMake

include(cmake/CPM.cmake)

CPMAddPackage(

  NAME Ccache.cmake

  GITHUB_REPOSITORY TheLartians/Ccache.cmake

  VERSION 1.2

)

```

### Using git submodules (not suited for libraries)

Run the following from the project's root directory.

```bash

git submodule add https://github.com/TheLartians/Ccache.cmake 

```

In add the following lines to the project's `CMakeLists.txt` after calling `project(...)`.

```CMake

add_subdirectory(Ccache.cmake)

```

## Dependencies

Ccache.cmake requires CMake and [_Ccache_](https://ccache.dev).
