nlohmann-json Python package doesn't ship with the cmake config files

[mdorier]

I am not sure if the nlohmann-json package from pypi (https://pypi.org/project/nlohmann-json/) is maintained here or by the same people, but when installing nlohmann-json with pypi, it doesn't ship with the nlohmann_jsonConfig.cmake necessary for cmake projects to find it. Is that something that could be corrected?

[nlohmann]

The nlohmann-json package on PyPI is not published or maintained by this project -- nlohmann/json is a C++ header-only library with no official Python bindings or PyPI distribution, and neither README.md nor the docs reference PyPI anywhere. That PyPI package is a third-party/unofficial repackaging, so a missing nlohmann_jsonConfig.cmake there needs to be reported to whoever maintains that separate project, not here. For a C++ project, the CMake config files are provided via this repository's release tarball, CMake FetchContent/find_package, or package managers like vcpkg/Conan; see docs/mkdocs/docs/integration/cmake.md and integration/package_managers.md.

Thanks, I got confused because the github link on the pypi page points to this repository.
