C Package Manager

• xmake

  166 9,062 10.0 Lua

  🔥 A cross-platform build utility based on Lua

  

The best C and C++ package manager I have used is Xmake/Xrepo. They support all the major package repositories out of the box including Vcpkg and Conan.

• clib

  6 4,749 5.6 C

  Package manager for the C programming language.

  

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com featured

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• Vcpkg

  147 21,652 10.0 CMake

  C++ Library Manager for Windows, Linux, and MacOS

  

vcpkg [1] is also a workable C package manager. It mainly has C++ packages but does include a few C packages e.g. glib [2]. In addition, you can use it on a separate list of package recipes (portfiles as vcpkg calls them), in case you want to use packages not in the central repo. It's based on CMake and runs on Windows and Linux (and other platforms I think but I haven't tried).

• CPM.cmake

  40 2,581 6.7 CMake

  📦 CMake's missing package manager. A small CMake script for setup-free, cross-platform, reproducible dependency management.

  

If a project supports cmake, this is the best package manager to fetch it https://github.com/cpm-cmake/CPM.cmake

• strlen.c

  1 1 1.8 C

  Very simple strlen() - no unrolling.

• toolbox-images

  8 5 0.0 Shell

  deprecated

  

You can also do that with rootless containers via Podman. There’s even a convenient wrapper for that workflow made by Red Hat called Toolbox (https://github.com/containers/toolbox)

• warpforge

  1 38 6.1 Go

  a build tool -- based on "hashes go in, hashes come out" and hermetic, containerized environments for every step.

  

Hey good news -- you might be interested in Warpforge: https://github.com/warpfork/warpforge

It's heading in exactly that direction. In fact we specifically want to start using Starlark for module declaration (mind -- optionally. It's still all declarative JSON API at the bottom! APIs FTW!).

We're also going full hermetic and aiming for reproducible-by-default. Those should be "duh" things in modern world. The comparisons with the good parts of Nix should be obvious.

The starlark-adjacent parts are still (very) early, but you'll find some notes about the intention in our Notion already: https://www.notion.so/warpforge/Data-Execution-and-Formulas-...

Get in touch if you'd like to collaborate, we'd be thrilled to have more company working on it, or starting to package things!
