- Generate a build recipe in the current directory with `CMakeLists.txt` from a project directory:
`cmake {{path/to/project_directory}}`
- Generate a build recipe, with build type set to `Release` with CMake variable:
`cmake {{path/to/project_directory}} -D {{CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release}}`
- Use a generated recipe in a given directory to build artifacts:
`cmake --build {{path/to/build_directory}}`
- Install the build artifacts into `/usr/local/` and strip debugging symbols:
`cmake --install {{path/to/build_directory}} --strip`
- Install the build artifacts using the custom prefix for paths:
`cmake --install {{path/to/build_directory}} --strip --prefix {{path/to/directory}}`
- Run a custom build target:
`cmake --build {{path/to/build_directory}} --target {{target_name}}`
