Building on MacOS

[axeljaeger]

Hello,
I am interested in using ModbusTools on MacOS. As I see from the source code, there is a raw unix implementation of the underlying ModbusLibrary that might compile on MacOS with minor modifications. I am very familiar with Qt, so I am willing to invest a bit of time here.

However, I am struggling with the very stupid start as I dont know how to fix:

❯ sh build.sh
CMake Error: Could not read presets from ---:
File not found: --/CMakePresets.json
CMake Error: ---:
File not found: ---/CMakePresets.json
 ~/ModbusTools │ main >

(replaced real path by ---)

• How to continue?
• Where do I find the linux preset as a base?
• Are there any Opinions on the whole endeavor?

Best regards,
Axel

Hello. CMakePresets.json is an individual file with setting to built which may be different from computer to computer, but example of the file is present in examples/CMakePresets.json.

Also build instructions are present in https://github.com/serhmarch/ModbusTools/tree/main/src
