Exported variables
==================
This module sets the following variables in your project:
``pybind11_FOUND``
true if pybind11 and all required components found on the system
``pybind11_VERSION``
pybind11 version in format Major.Minor.Release
``pybind11_VERSION_TYPE``
pybind11 version type (dev, release)
``pybind11_INCLUDE_DIRS``
Directories where pybind11 and python headers are located.
``pybind11_INCLUDE_DIR``
Directory where pybind11 headers are located.
``pybind11_DEFINITIONS``
Definitions necessary to use pybind11, namely USING_pybind11.
``pybind11_LIBRARIES``
Compile flags and python libraries (as needed) to link against.
``pybind11_LIBRARY``
Empty.
Available components: None
Exported targets
================
If pybind11 is found, this module defines the following ``IMPORTED``
interface library targets:
``pybind11::module``
for extension modules.
``pybind11::embed``
for embedding the Python interpreter.
Python headers, libraries (as needed by platform), and the C++ standard
are attached to the target.
Advanced targets are also supplied - these are primary for users building
complex applications, and they are available in all modes:
``pybind11::headers``
Just the pybind11 headers and minimum compile requirements.
``pybind11::pybind11``
Python headers too.
``pybind11::python_link_helper``
Just the "linking" part of ``pybind11:module``, for CMake < 3.15.
``pybind11::python2_no_register``
Quiets the warning/error when mixing C++14+ and Python 2, also included in ``pybind11::module``.
``pybind11::thin_lto``
An alternative to ``INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION``.
``pybind11::lto``
An alternative to ``INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION`` (also avoids thin LTO on clang).
``pybind11::windows_extras``
Adds bigobj and mp for MSVC.
Modes
=====
There are two modes provided; classic, which is built on the old Python
discovery packages in CMake, or the new FindPython mode, which uses FindPython
from 3.12+ forward (3.15+ _highly_ recommended).
New FindPython mode
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To activate this mode, either call ``find_package(Python COMPONENTS Interpreter Development)``
before finding this package, or set the ``PYBIND11_FINDPYTHON`` variable to ON. In this mode,
you can either use the basic targets, or use the FindPython tools:
.. code-block:: cmake
find_package(Python COMPONENTS Interpreter Development)
find_package(pybind11 CONFIG)
# pybind11 method:
pybind11_add_module(MyModule1 src1.cpp)
# Python method:
Python_add_library(MyModule2 src2.cpp)
target_link_libraries(MyModule2 pybind11::headers)
set_target_properties(MyModule2 PROPERTIES
INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION ON
CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET ON
VISIBLITY_INLINES_HIDDEN ON)
If you build targets yourself, you may be interested in stripping the output
for reduced size; this is the one other feature that the helper function gives you.
Classic mode
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Set PythonLibsNew variables to influence python detection and
CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD to influence standard setting.
.. code-block:: cmake
find_package(pybind11 CONFIG REQUIRED)
# Create an extension module
add_library(mylib MODULE main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(mylib PUBLIC pybind11::module)
# Or embed the Python interpreter into an executable
add_executable(myexe main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(myexe PUBLIC pybind11::embed)
Hints
=====
The following variables can be set to guide the search for this package:
``pybind11_DIR``
CMake variable, set to directory containing this Config file.
``CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH``
CMake variable, set to root directory of this package.
``PATH``
Environment variable, set to bin directory of this package.
``CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_pybind11``
CMake variable, disables ``find_package(pybind11)`` when not ``REQUIRED``,
perhaps to force internal build.
Commands
========
pybind11_add_module
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This module defines the following commands to assist with creating Python modules:
.. code-block:: cmake
pybind11_add_module(<target>
[STATIC|SHARED|MODULE]
[THIN_LTO] [OPT_SIZE] [NO_EXTRAS] [WITHOUT_SOBAI]
<files>...
)
Add a module and setup all helpers. You can select the type of the library; the
default is ``MODULE``. There are several options:
``OPT_SIZE``
Optimize for size, even if the ``CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE`` is not ``RelSize``.
``THIN_LTO``
Use thin TLO instead of regular if there's a choice (pybind11's selection
is disabled if ``CMAKE_INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATIONS`` is set).
``WITHOUT_SOABI``
Disable the SOABI component (``PYBIND11_NEWPYTHON`` mode only).
``NO_EXTRAS``
Disable all extras, exit immediately after making the module.
pybind11_strip
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: cmake
pybind11_strip(<target>)
Strip a target after building it (linux/macOS), called by ``pybind11_add_module``.
pybind11_extension
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: cmake
pybind11_extension(<target>)
Sets the Python extension name correctly for Python on your platform, called by
``pybind11_add_module``.
pybind11_find_import(module)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: cmake
pybind11_find_import(<module> [VERSION <number>] [REQUIRED] [QUIET])
See if a module is installed. Use the registered name (the one on PyPI). You
can specify a ``VERSION``, and you can specify ``REQUIRED`` or ``QUIET``. Only available if
``NOPYTHON`` mode is not active. Sets ``module_VERSION`` and ``module_FOUND``. Caches the
result once a valid install is found.
Suggested usage
===============
Using ``find_package`` with version info is not recommended except for release versions.
.. code-block:: cmake
find_package(pybind11 CONFIG)
find_package(pybind11 2.0 EXACT CONFIG REQUIRED)
#]=============================================================================]
@PACKAGE_INIT@
# Location of pybind11/pybind11.h
set(pybind11_INCLUDE_DIR "${PACKAGE_PREFIX_DIR}/@CMAKE_INSTALL_INCLUDEDIR@")
set(pybind11_LIBRARY "")
set(pybind11_DEFINITIONS USING_pybind11)
set(pybind11_VERSION_TYPE "@pybind11_VERSION_TYPE@")
check_required_components(pybind11)
if(TARGET pybind11::python_link_helper)
# This has already been setup elsewhere, such as with a previous call or
# add_subdirectory
return()
endif()
include("${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/pybind11Targets.cmake")
# Easier to use / remember
add_library(pybind11::headers IMPORTED INTERFACE)
set_target_properties(pybind11::headers PROPERTIES INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES
pybind11::pybind11_headers)
include("${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/pybind11Common.cmake")
if(NOT pybind11_FIND_QUIETLY)
message(
STATUS
"Found pybind11: ${pybind11_INCLUDE_DIR} (found version \"${pybind11_VERSION}\" ${pybind11_VERSION_TYPE})"
)
endif()
