# conan-utils
Small utilities for **Conan 1.x** (targets 1.66). All development happens inside
a pinned Podman container so nothing from the host environment leaks in.
## conandeps.py
Given a `conanfile.py`, `conandeps` reports:
* direct and indirect dependencies (host and build context),
* whether a binary exists on the remote for **Release, Debug and RelWithDebInfo**
(configurable) for *your exact profile*,
* every requirement **override** explicit `override=True` and implicit ones
(a downstream consumer asking for a newer version than a transitive
dependency declared) shown both as a list and on the edges of the
dependency tree.
```
./conandeps.py path/to/conanfile.py -r knor # text report
./conandeps.py path/to/conanfile.py -r knor -pr myprofile # explicit profile
./conandeps.py path/to/conanfile.py -r knor --html report.html
./conandeps.py path/to/conanfile.py -r knor --build-types Release,Debug
```
Options mirror `conan info`: `-pr/--profile`, `-s/--settings`, `-o/--options`
(all repeatable) and `-u/--update`. Exit status is `1` when any binary is
missing, so it can gate a CI job.
### How it works
Rather than matching `conan search` output by hand, the dependency graph is
built once per build type through Conan's own `info` code path and each node's
binary status (`Cache`/`Download`/`Missing`, …) is read back. That means
`package_id()` customisations, options and `default_package_id_mode` are
honoured exactly as a real `conan install` would.
Conan 1.x does not keep override information on the graph the only trace is a
`WARN: … requirement A overridden by B to C` line. The tool captures Conan's
output while building the graph and parses those lines.
## Development
```
./dev.sh build # build the conan-utils-dev image (Conan 1.66, Python 3.11)
./dev.sh python -m pytest # run the tests
./dev.sh ruff check . && ./dev.sh ruff format .
./dev.sh # interactive shell
```
The tests start a throw-away `conan_server` inside the container, upload a
small graph with deliberately missing binaries and overrides, and run the tool
against it with an isolated `CONAN_USER_HOME`.
