Synopsis

vcpkg new --application

vcpkg new --name hello --version 1.0 [--version-relaxed | --version-date | --version-string]

Creates a manifest file (vcpkg.json) and a default configuration file (vcpkg-configuration.json) ready to use in your project in the current working directory.

Use the --application flag if your project is an end-user application.

If not using --application, --name and --version are required. --version-date, --version-relaxed, or --version-string can force that a particular version format is selected. For more information about the versioning formats, see Versioning reference.

Options

All vcpkg commands support a set of common options.

--application

Creates a manifest suitable for use in applications, removing the requirement to supply name and version.

--name

The name to write into the manifest.

--version

Indicates the version to write into the manifest. If none of the other version format switches are passed, infers the appropriate form to use based on the form of the input.

--version-relaxed

Indicates that the version to write into the manifest is a 'relaxed' version. Relaxed versions obey semantic versioning's format, but allow any number of numeric values. See versioning reference for more information.

--version-date

Indicates that the version to write into the manifest is a 'date' version. Date versions are an ISO 8601 date (e.g. "YYYY-MM-DD"). See versioning reference for more information.

--version-string

Indicates that the version to write into the manifest is a 'string' version with no ordering

semantics. See versioning reference for more information.

Examples

Note

vcpkg new generates metadata in vcpkg.json and vcpkg-configuration.json files. This includes integration with the experimental artifacts experience. In particular, the registries with "kind": "artifact" are for the experimental vcpkg-artifacts feature.

With --application

$ vcpkg new --application
$ type vcpkg.json
{}
$ type .\vcpkg-configuration.json
{
  "default-registry": {
    "kind": "git",
    "baseline": "64adda19c86e89526b5e27703a193c14477cce07",
    "repository": "https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg"
  },
  "registries": [
    {
      "kind": "artifact",
      "location": "https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg-ce-catalog/archive/refs/heads/main.zip",
      "name": "microsoft"
    }
  ]
}

With --name and --version

$ vcpkg new --name hello --version 2023-07-05
$ type vcpkg.json
{
  "name": "hello",
  "version-date": "2023-07-05"
}
$ type .\vcpkg-configuration.json
{
  "default-registry": {
    "kind": "git",
    "baseline": "64adda19c86e89526b5e27703a193c14477cce07",
    "repository": "https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg"
  },
  "registries": [
    {
      "kind": "artifact",
      "location": "https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg-ce-catalog/archive/refs/heads/main.zip",
      "name": "microsoft"
    }
  ]
}

With explicit version format selection

$ vcpkg new --name hello --version 1.0 --version-date
error: `1.0` is not a valid date version. Dates must follow the format YYYY-MM-DD and disambiguators must be dot-separated positive integer values without leading zeroes.
$ vcpkg new --name hello --version 1.0 --version-string
$ type vcpkg.json
{
  "name": "hello",
  "version-string": "1.0"
}
$ type .\vcpkg-configuration.json
{
  "default-registry": {
    "kind": "git",
    "baseline": "64adda19c86e89526b5e27703a193c14477cce07",
    "repository": "https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg"
  },
  "registries": [
    {
      "kind": "artifact",
      "location": "https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg-ce-catalog/archive/refs/heads/main.zip",
      "name": "microsoft"
    }
  ]
}
