Configure, build, and test your [CMake](https://cmake.org/) project using [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions). This action simplifies the workflow for configuring the build environment of a CMake project. It can also be optionally specified to build a CMake project using the `cmake --build` command and test it using the `ctest` command.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Configures a CMake project using the [`cmake`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake.1.html) command.
|
|
- Optionally builds a CMake project using the `cmake --build` command.
|
|
- Optionally tests a CMake project using the [`ctest`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/ctest.1.html) command.
|
|
- Auto-detects and installs required dependencies.
|
|
- Supports specifying multiple CMake options directly from the action inputs.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
