Why Buckaroo?
Package managers like Yarn and Cargo have shown how productive developers can be when they can easily integrate a large ecosystem of projects. Buckaroo fills this gap for C++.
The Buckaroo workflow looks like this:
# Create your project file
$ buckaroo init
# Install dependencies
$ buckaroo add github.com/buckaroo-pm/boost-thread@branch=master
# Run your code
$ buck run :my-app
Features
C++ has unique requirements, so Buckaroo is a highly sophisticated piece of software.
- Pull dependencies directly from GitHub, BitBucket, GitLab, hosted Git and HTTP
- Fully reproducible builds and dependency resolution
- Completely decentralized - there is no central server or publishing process
- Allows any build configuration (even on a package-by-package basis)
- Private and public dependencies to avoid "dependency hell"
- Multiple libraries per package, so tools like Lerna are unnecessary
- Pull individual packages out of mono-repos
- Full support for semantic versioning (but only when you want it!)
- Live at head! Move fast by depending directly on Git branches, but in a controlled way
- Blazing fast resolution using clever heuristics
- Version equivalency checks to reduce dependency conflicts
- TOML configuration files for convenient editing by computers and humans
- Works offline (with a populated cache)
- Enable Upgrade Bot to keep everything up-to-date with a single click
