About changing the default compilation method of colcon build

[p-zzg]

Now colcon build compilation should be used
cmake --build . --target install

I want to implement cmake --build . --target package
Generate the content I need to install as deb

All install content is generated in deb

How can I modify core to do this

Requirement: Multiple function packages in a workspace are compiled to generate a deb file

colcon Whether the related configuration can be implemented
What about the "cmake --build. --target package" function?

[cottsay]

You might be able to do this with the --cmake-target option in colcon-cmake:

colcon-cmake/colcon_cmake/task/cmake/build.py

Lines 44 to 46 in 1509c77

	parser.add_argument(
	'--cmake-target',
	help='Build a specific target instead of the default target')

I'm transferring this issue to that package.

If --cmake-target isn't sufficient, it's likely that colcon can't do what you want out of the box, and you may need to implement a new colcon extension.
