How to include VTK on paraview plugin?

Question

I've managed to build paraview from source on OSX using clang.

Now I need to build a plugin with CMakeList.txt:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.10)

SET(PLUGIN_NAME GeoPhysics)
SET(PLUGIN_VERSION "1.1")

FIND_PACKAGE(ParaView REQUIRED)
INCLUDE(${PARAVIEW_USE_FILE})

ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN(${PLUGIN_NAME} ${PLUGIN_VERSION}
    SERVER_MANAGER_XML Server.xml
    SOURCES
                    BaseGeoPhysicsHDF5SphericalReader.cxx
    SERVER_MANAGER_SOURCES
                    vtkGeoPhysicsHDF5Reader.cxx
                    vtkGeoPhysicsHDF5SphericalReader.cxx
                    vtkMakeGeoEarth.cxx
                    vtkProjMap.cxx
    GUI_RESOURCE_FILES GeoPhysics.xml GeoPhysics-GUI.xml
)

So I export ParaView_DIR=$HOME/projects/ParaView/build, but make can't find VTK headers.

~/Geophysics/plugin/vtkMakeGeoEarth.cxx:11:10: fatal error: 'vtkGlobeSource.h' file not found

vtkGlobeSource.h is located in $HOME/projects/ParaView/VTK/Geovis/Core

How should I add VTK on the CMakeList.txt?

The vtkGeovisCore is not enabled in the default ParaView build. Make sure you turn on the module by enabling the cmake flag Module_vtkGeovisCore.
