How to make this work?

[Telokis]

After cloning this repository, I tried to run cppan --build . but I got an error:

Requesting dependency list... 
Some packages (1) are unresolved```

Could you, please, write stuff in the README so that people can actually understand how to build easily, please?

Thanks!

Hi,
This project is for cppan+cmake integration and a bit outdated, so you see that error. I'll fix it.

The real cppan only project example can be found in my repo:
https://github.com/egorpugin/primitives

You can build it exactly with cppan --build .

Oh, didn't think I could do that without CMake, that good to know!
Is there a place where I can find a complete documentation for the cppan.yml file please?

https://github.com/cppan/cppan/tree/master/doc
See config options.

The document is too simple

[egorpugin]

Yes, cppan has very poor docs at the moment, sorry.
You can check some packages for more options here https://cppan.org/
Or right in sources:
https://github.com/cppan/cppan/blob/master/src/common/yaml.cpp#L137
https://github.com/cppan/cppan/blob/master/src/common/project.h#L189
Almost all should be intuitive.

I'm working towards next major release (cppan2 internally). It will have good docs out of the box - doxygen based.
So, please, wait a bit longer.
