Package manager for C/C++ software.
Voyager is an enterprise focused package manager for C and C++ that integrates with Artifactory:
- Integrates with Visual Studio (MSBuild) and CMake
- Host packages in your own network on your own server
- Works with the free Community Edition of Artifactory
- Easy to use, just call
voyager installand then build your software the regular way - Very simple package format, allowing easy packaging of existing software solutions (no need to overhaul your entire build system)
The reason we've created voyager at Prodrive Technologies is that third-party options did not fit our workflow. We have a lot of existing software which would need significant changes to integrate with one of the existing package managers for C/C++.
To use voyager, install one of the releases and run voyager login to authenticate with an Artifactory server.
After that run voyager install to install the dependencies of the project that you want to build.
For more information about the usage of voyager, take a look at the documentation site.
Voyager is written in Python, 3.10 is the recommended version. To develop on the project create a virtual environment and run the python file.
uv venv --python 3.10
uv run voyagerTo build the python packages run:
uv build --wheel
uv build --wheel .\plugins\voyager_listplugins\To build the application run:
uv run pyinstaller deploy/voyager.specSee the Contributing guidelines
- Investigate support for anonymous authentication
- Support for Artifactory Cloud. According to dohq-artifactory another class needs to be used
- Add proper testcases that use Artifactory Cloud, so they are runnable by everyone
- Change UpdateChecker class to read the latest version from Github releases
