  .. contents::

Overview
^^^^^^^^

This module enables populating content at configure time via any method
supported by the :module:`ExternalProject` module.  Whereas
:command:`ExternalProject_Add` downloads at build time, the
``FetchContent`` module makes content available immediately, allowing the
configure step to use the content in commands like :command:`add_subdirectory`,
:command:`include` or :command:`file` operations.

Content population details would normally be defined separately from the
command that performs the actual population.  Projects should also
check whether the content has already been populated somewhere else in the
project hierarchy.  Typical usage would look something like this:

.. code-block:: cmake

  FetchContent_Declare(
    googletest
    GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/google/googletest.git
    GIT_TAG        release-1.8.0
  )

  FetchContent_GetProperties(googletest)
  if(NOT googletest_POPULATED)
    FetchContent_Populate(googletest)
    add_subdirectory(${googletest_SOURCE_DIR} ${googletest_BINARY_DIR})
  endif()

When using the above pattern with a hierarchical project arrangement,
projects at higher levels in the hierarchy are able to define or override
the population details of content specified anywhere lower in the project
hierarchy.  The ability to detect whether content has already been
populated ensures that even if multiple child projects want certain content
to be available, the first one to populate it wins.  The other child project
can simply make use of the already available content instead of repeating
the population for itself.  See the
:ref:`Examples <fetch-content-examples>` section which demonstrates
this scenario.

The ``FetchContent`` module also supports defining and populating
content in a single call, with no check for whether the content has been
populated elsewhere in the project already.  This is a more low level
operation and would not normally be the way the module is used, but it is
sometimes useful as part of implementing some higher level feature or to
populate some content in CMake's script mode.


Declaring Content Details
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. command:: FetchContent_Declare

  .. code-block:: cmake

    FetchContent_Declare(<name> <contentOptions>...)

  The ``FetchContent_Declare()`` function records the options that describe
  how to populate the specified content, but if such details have already
  been recorded earlier in this project (regardless of where in the project
  hierarchy), this and all later calls for the same content ``<name>`` are
  ignored.  This "first to record, wins" approach is what allows hierarchical
  projects to have parent projects override content details of child projects.

  The content ``<name>`` can be any string without spaces, but good practice
  would be to use only letters, numbers and underscores.  The name will be
  treated case-insensitively and it should be obvious for the content it
  represents, often being the name of the child project or the value given
  to its top level :command:`project` command (if it is a CMake project).
  For well-known public projects, the name should generally be the official
  name of the project.  Choosing an unusual name makes it unlikely that other
  projects needing that same content will use the same name, leading to
  the content being populated multiple times.

  The ``<contentOptions>`` can be any of the download or update/patch options
  that the :command:`ExternalProject_Add` command understands.  The configure,
  build, install and test steps are explicitly disabled and therefore options
  related to them will be ignored.  In most cases, ``<contentOptions>`` will
  just be a couple of options defining the download method and method-specific
  details like a commit tag or archive hash.  For example:

  .. code-block:: cmake

    FetchContent_Declare(
      googletest
      GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/google/googletest.git
      GIT_TAG        release-1.8.0
    )

    FetchContent_Declare(
      myCompanyIcons
      URL      https://intranet.mycompany.com/assets/iconset_1.12.tar.gz
      URL_HASH 5588a7b18261c20068beabfb4f530b87
    )

    FetchContent_Declare(
      myCompanyCertificates
      SVN_REPOSITORY svn+ssh://svn.mycompany.com/srv/svn/trunk/certs
      SVN_REVISION   -r12345
    )

Populating The Content
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. command:: FetchContent_Populate

  .. code-block:: cmake

    FetchContent_Populate( <name> )

  In most cases, the only argument given to ``FetchContent_Populate()`` is the
  ``<name>``.  When used this way, the command assumes the content details have
  been recorded by an earlier call to :command:`FetchContent_Declare`.  The
  details are stored in a global property, so they are unaffected by things
  like variable or directory scope.  Therefore, it doesn't matter where in the
  project the details were previously declared, as long as they have been
  declared before the call to ``FetchContent_Populate()``.  Those saved details
  are then used to construct a call to :command:`ExternalProject_Add` in a
  private sub-build to perform the content population immediately.  The
  implementation of ``ExternalProject_Add()`` ensures that if the content has
  already been populated in a previous CMake run, that content will be reused
  rather than repopulating them again.  For the common case where population
  involves downloading content, the cost of the download is only paid once.

  An internal global property records when a particular content population
  request has been processed.  If ``FetchContent_Populate()`` is called more
  than once for the same content name within a configure run, the second call
  will halt with an error.  Projects can and should check whether content
  population has already been processed with the
  :command:`FetchContent_GetProperties` command before calling
  ``FetchContent_Populate()``.

  ``FetchContent_Populate()`` will set three variables in the scope of the
  caller; ``<lcName>_POPULATED``, ``<lcName>_SOURCE_DIR`` and
  ``<lcName>_BINARY_DIR``, where ``<lcName>`` is the lowercased ``<name>``.
  ``<lcName>_POPULATED`` will always be set to ``True`` by the call.
  ``<lcName>_SOURCE_DIR`` is the location where the
  content can be found upon return (it will have already been populated), while
  ``<lcName>_BINARY_DIR`` is a directory intended for use as a corresponding
  build directory.  The main use case for the two directory variables is to
  call :command:`add_subdirectory` immediately after population, i.e.:

  .. code-block:: cmake

    FetchContent_Populate(FooBar ...)
    add_subdirectory(${foobar_SOURCE_DIR} ${foobar_BINARY_DIR})

  The values of the three variables can also be retrieved from anywhere in the
  project hierarchy using the :command:`FetchContent_GetProperties` command.

  A number of cache variables influence the behavior of all content population
  performed using details saved from a :command:`FetchContent_Declare` call:

  ``FETCHCONTENT_BASE_DIR``
    In most cases, the saved details do not specify any options relating to the
    directories to use for the internal sub-build, final source and build areas.
    It is generally best to leave these decisions up to the ``FetchContent``
    module to handle on the project's behalf.  The ``FETCHCONTENT_BASE_DIR``
    cache variable controls the point under which all content population
    directories are collected, but in most cases developers would not need to
    change this.  The default location is ``${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/_deps``, but if
    developers change this value, they should aim to keep the path short and
    just below the top level of the build tree to avoid running into path
    length problems on Windows.

  ``FETCHCONTENT_QUIET``
    The logging output during population can be quite verbose, making the
    configure stage quite noisy.  This cache option (``ON`` by default) hides
    all population output unless an error is encountered.  If experiencing
    problems with hung downloads, temporarily switching this option off may
    help diagnose which content population is causing the issue.

  ``FETCHCONTENT_FULLY_DISCONNECTED``
    When this option is enabled, no attempt is made to download or update
    any content.  It is assumed that all content has already been populated in
    a previous run or the source directories have been pointed at existing
    contents the developer has provided manually (using options described
    further below).  When the developer knows that no changes have been made to
    any content details, turning this option ``ON`` can significantly speed up
    the configure stage.  It is ``OFF`` by default.

  ``FETCHCONTENT_UPDATES_DISCONNECTED``
    This is a less severe download/update control compared to
    ``FETCHCONTENT_FULLY_DISCONNECTED``.  Instead of bypassing all download and
    update logic, the ``FETCHCONTENT_UPDATES_DISCONNECTED`` only disables the
    update stage.  Therefore, if content has not been downloaded previously,
    it will still be downloaded when this option is enabled.  This can speed up
    the configure stage, but not as much as
    ``FETCHCONTENT_FULLY_DISCONNECTED``.  It is ``OFF`` by default.

  In addition to the above cache variables, the following cache variables are
  also defined for each content name (``<ucName>`` is the uppercased value of
  ``<name>``):

  ``FETCHCONTENT_SOURCE_DIR_<ucName>``
    If this is set, no download or update steps are performed for the specified
    content and the ``<lcName>_SOURCE_DIR`` variable returned to the caller is
    pointed at this location.  This gives developers a way to have a separate
    checkout of the content that they can modify freely without interference
    from the build.  The build simply uses that existing source, but it still
    defines ``<lcName>_BINARY_DIR`` to point inside its own build area.
    Developers are strongly encouraged to use this mechanism rather than
    editing the sources populated in the default location, as changes to
    sources in the default location can be lost when content population details
    are changed by the project.

  ``FETCHCONTENT_UPDATES_DISCONNECTED_<ucName>``
    This is the per-content equivalent of
    ``FETCHCONTENT_UPDATES_DISCONNECTED``. If the global option or this option
    is ``ON``, then updates will be disabled for the named content.
    Disabling updates for individual content can be useful for content whose
    details rarely change, while still leaving other frequently changing
    content with updates enabled.


  The ``FetchContent_Populate()`` command also supports a syntax allowing the
  content details to be specified directly rather than using any saved
  details.  This is more low-level and use of this form is generally to be
  avoided in favour of using saved content details as outlined above.
  Nevertheless, in certain situations it can be useful to invoke the content
  population as an isolated operation (typically as part of implementing some
  other higher level feature or when using CMake in script mode):

  .. code-block:: cmake

    FetchContent_Populate( <name>
      [QUIET]
      [SUBBUILD_DIR <subBuildDir>]
      [SOURCE_DIR <srcDir>]
      [BINARY_DIR <binDir>]
      ...
    )

  This form has a number of key differences to that where only ``<name>`` is
  provided:

  - All required population details are assumed to have been provided directly
    in the call to ``FetchContent_Populate()``. Any saved details for
    ``<name>`` are ignored.
  - No check is made for whether content for ``<name>`` has already been
    populated.
  - No global property is set to record that the population has occurred.
  - No global properties record the source or binary directories used for the
    populated content.
  - The ``FETCHCONTENT_FULLY_DISCONNECTED`` and
    ``FETCHCONTENT_UPDATES_DISCONNECTED`` cache variables are ignored.

  The ``<lcName>_SOURCE_DIR`` and ``<lcName>_BINARY_DIR`` variables are still
  returned to the caller, but since these locations are not stored as global
  properties when this form is used, they are only available to the calling
  scope and below rather than the entire project hierarchy.  No
  ``<lcName>_POPULATED`` variable is set in the caller's scope with this form.

  The supported options for ``FetchContent_Populate()`` are the same as those
  for :command:`FetchContent_Declare()`.  Those few options shown just
  above are either specific to ``FetchContent_Populate()`` or their behavior is
  slightly modified from how :command:`ExternalProject_Add` treats them.

  ``QUIET``
    The ``QUIET`` option can be given to hide the output associated with
    populating the specified content.  If the population fails, the output will
    be shown regardless of whether this option was given or not so that the
    cause of the failure can be diagnosed.  The global ``FETCHCONTENT_QUIET``
    cache variable has no effect on ``FetchContent_Populate()`` calls where the
    content details are provided directly.

  ``SUBBUILD_DIR``
    The ``SUBBUILD_DIR`` argument can be provided to change the location of the
    sub-build created to perform the population.  The default value is
    ``${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/<lcName>-subbuild`` and it would be unusual
    to need to override this default.  If a relative path is specified, it will
    be interpreted as relative to :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR`.

  ``SOURCE_DIR``, ``BINARY_DIR``
    The ``SOURCE_DIR`` and ``BINARY_DIR`` arguments are supported by
    :command:`ExternalProject_Add`, but different default values are used by
    ``FetchContent_Populate()``.  ``SOURCE_DIR`` defaults to
    ``${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/<lcName>-src`` and ``BINARY_DIR`` defaults to
    ``${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/<lcName>-build``.  If a relative path is
    specified, it will be interpreted as relative to
    :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR`.

  In addition to the above explicit options, any other unrecognized options are
  passed through unmodified to :command:`ExternalProject_Add` to perform the
  download, patch and update steps.  The following options are explicitly
  prohibited (they are disabled by the ``FetchContent_Populate()`` command):

  - ``CONFIGURE_COMMAND``
  - ``BUILD_COMMAND``
  - ``INSTALL_COMMAND``
  - ``TEST_COMMAND``

  If using ``FetchContent_Populate()`` within CMake's script mode, be aware
  that the implementation sets up a sub-build which therefore requires a CMake
  generator and build tool to be available. If these cannot be found by
  default, then the :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR` and/or
  :variable:`CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM` variables will need to be set appropriately
  on the command line invoking the script.


Retrieve Population Properties
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. command:: FetchContent_GetProperties

  When using saved content details, a call to :command:`FetchContent_Populate`
  records information in global properties which can be queried at any time.
  This information includes the source and binary directories associated with
  the content and also whether or not the content population has been processed
  during the current configure run.

  .. code-block:: cmake

    FetchContent_GetProperties( <name>
      [SOURCE_DIR <srcDirVar>]
      [BINARY_DIR <binDirVar>]
      [POPULATED <doneVar>]
    )

  The ``SOURCE_DIR``, ``BINARY_DIR`` and ``POPULATED`` options can be used to
  specify which properties should be retrieved.  Each option accepts a value
  which is the name of the variable in which to store that property.  Most of
  the time though, only ``<name>`` is given, in which case the call will then
  set the same variables as a call to
  :command:`FetchContent_Populate(name) <FetchContent_Populate>`.  This allows
  the following canonical pattern to be used, which ensures that the relevant
  variables will always be defined regardless of whether or not the population
  has been performed elsewhere in the project already:

  .. code-block:: cmake

    FetchContent_GetProperties(foobar)
    if(NOT foobar_POPULATED)
      FetchContent_Populate(foobar)

      # Set any custom variables, etc. here, then
      # populate the content as part of this build

      add_subdirectory(${foobar_SOURCE_DIR} ${foobar_BINARY_DIR})
    endif()

  The above pattern allows other parts of the overall project hierarchy to
  re-use the same content and ensure that it is only populated once.


.. _`fetch-content-examples`:

Examples
^^^^^^^^

Consider a project hierarchy where ``projA`` is the top level project and it
depends on projects ``projB`` and ``projC``. Both ``projB`` and ``projC``
can be built standalone and they also both depend on another project
``projD``.  For simplicity, this example will assume that all four projects
are available on a company git server.  The ``CMakeLists.txt`` of each project
might have sections like the following:

*projA*:

.. code-block:: cmake

  include(FetchContent)
  FetchContent_Declare(
    projB
    GIT_REPOSITORY git@mycompany.com/git/projB.git
    GIT_TAG        4a89dc7e24ff212a7b5167bef7ab079d
  )
  FetchContent_Declare(
    projC
    GIT_REPOSITORY git@mycompany.com/git/projC.git
    GIT_TAG        4ad4016bd1d8d5412d135cf8ceea1bb9
  )
  FetchContent_Declare(
    projD
    GIT_REPOSITORY git@mycompany.com/git/projD.git
    GIT_TAG        origin/integrationBranch
  )

  FetchContent_GetProperties(projB)
  if(NOT projb_POPULATED)
    FetchContent_Populate(projB)
    add_subdirectory(${projb_SOURCE_DIR} ${projb_BINARY_DIR})
  endif()

  FetchContent_GetProperties(projC)
  if(NOT projc_POPULATED)
    FetchContent_Populate(projC)
    add_subdirectory(${projc_SOURCE_DIR} ${projc_BINARY_DIR})
  endif()

*projB*:

.. code-block:: cmake

  include(FetchContent)
  FetchContent_Declare(
    projD
    GIT_REPOSITORY git@mycompany.com/git/projD.git
    GIT_TAG        20b415f9034bbd2a2e8216e9a5c9e632
  )

  FetchContent_GetProperties(projD)
  if(NOT projd_POPULATED)
    FetchContent_Populate(projD)
    add_subdirectory(${projd_SOURCE_DIR} ${projd_BINARY_DIR})
  endif()


*projC*:

.. code-block:: cmake

  include(FetchContent)
  FetchContent_Declare(
    projD
    GIT_REPOSITORY git@mycompany.com/git/projD.git
    GIT_TAG        7d9a17ad2c962aa13e2fbb8043fb6b8a
  )

  FetchContent_GetProperties(projD)
  if(NOT projd_POPULATED)
    FetchContent_Populate(projD)
    add_subdirectory(${projd_SOURCE_DIR} ${projd_BINARY_DIR})
  endif()

A few key points should be noted in the above:

- ``projB`` and ``projC`` define different content details for ``projD``,
  but ``projA`` also defines a set of content details for ``projD`` and
  because ``projA`` will define them first, the details from ``projB`` and
  ``projC`` will not be used.  The override details defined by ``projA``
  are not required to match either of those from ``projB`` or ``projC``, but
  it is up to the higher level project to ensure that the details it does
  define still make sense for the child projects.
- While ``projA`` defined content details for ``projD``, it did not need
  to explicitly call ``FetchContent_Populate(projD)`` itself.  Instead, it
  leaves that to a child project to do (in this case it will be ``projB``
  since it is added to the build ahead of ``projC``).  If ``projA`` needed to
  customize how the ``projD`` content was brought into the build as well
  (e.g. define some CMake variables before calling
  :command:`add_subdirectory` after populating), it would do the call to
  ``FetchContent_Populate()``, etc. just as it did for the ``projB`` and
  ``projC`` content.  For higher level projects, it is usually enough to
  just define the override content details and leave the actual population
  to the child projects.  This saves repeating the same thing at each level
  of the project hierarchy unnecessarily.
- Even though ``projA`` is the top level project in this example, it still
  checks whether ``projB`` and ``projC`` have already been populated before
  going ahead to do those populations.  This makes ``projA`` able to be more
  easily incorporated as a child of some other higher level project in the
  future if required.  Always protect a call to
  :command:`FetchContent_Populate` with a check to
  :command:`FetchContent_GetProperties`, even in what may be considered a top
  level project at the time.


The following example demonstrates how one might download and unpack a
firmware tarball using CMake's :manual:`script mode <cmake(1)>`.  The call to
:command:`FetchContent_Populate` specifies all the content details and the
unpacked firmware will be placed in a ``firmware`` directory below the
current working directory.

*getFirmware.cmake*:

.. code-block:: cmake

  # NOTE: Intended to be run in script mode with cmake -P
  include(FetchContent)
  FetchContent_Populate(
    firmware
    URL        https://mycompany.com/assets/firmware-1.23-arm.tar.gz
    URL_HASH   MD5=68247684da89b608d466253762b0ff11
