| # llama.cpp/example/simple-cmake-pkg | |
| This program builds [simple](../simple) using a relocatable CMake package. It serves as an example of using the `find_package()` CMake command to conveniently include [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp) in projects which live outside of the source tree. | |
| ## Building | |
| Because this example is "outside of the source tree", it is important to first build/install llama.cpp using CMake. An example is provided here, but please see the [llama.cpp build instructions](../..) for more detailed build instructions. | |
| ### Considerations | |
| When hardware acceleration libraries are used (e.g. CUDA, Metal, Vulkan, etc.), the appropriate dependencies will be searched for automatically. So, for example, when finding a package | |
| ### Build llama.cpp and install to llama.cpp/inst | |
| ```sh | |
| git clone https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp | |
| cd llama.cpp | |
| cmake -S . -B build | |
| cmake --build build | |
| cmake --install build --prefix inst | |
| ### Build simple-cmake-pkg | |
| ```sh | |
| cd examples/simple-cmake-pkg | |
| cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=../../inst/lib/cmake | |
| cmake --build build | |
| ``` | |
| ### Run simple-cmake-pkg | |
| ```sh | |
| ./build/llama-simple-cmake-pkg -m ./models/llama-7b-v2/ggml-model-f16.gguf "Hello my name is" | |
| ``` | |
