Conan Setup

This component sets up the Conan client to use multiple additional remotes, possibly with credentials.

Configurability

Additional remotes

The component will read $VELOCITAS_WORKSPACE/.conanremotes and add all remotes listed in the file prior to the default (Conan center). The file needs to contain a JSON array of additional remotes with keys id, url, user and token.

E.g.

[
    {
        "id": "custom-remote",
        "url": "https://my-custom-remote.com/artifactory",
        "user": "my-user",
        "token": "${{ CONAN_REMOTE_TOKEN }}"
    }
]

Remote credentials

The component will read $VELOCITAS_WORKSPACE/.credentials which is a list of plaintext key=value pairs which are then substituted in the .conanremotes file. That way a general configuration can be kept in the remote configuration while user-specific credentials can be kept in a separate file.
