conan export .

Then you can add it to your own recipe as following:

from conan import ConanFile


class Gizmo(ConanFile):
    name = "gizmo"
    version = "1.0"

    python_requires = "bramz-conan-tools/1.0.0"

    def generate(self):
        props = self.python_requires["bramz-conan-tools"].module.VSCodeCCppProperties(self)
        props.generate(self)

As Global Generator

To install the extensions globally, use following command:

conan config install https://github.com/bdegreve/bramz-conan-tools.git

Then you can use the generator in your recipe by name, or on the commandline:
