Cannot link sndfile library to cmake project (MacOS) - c++

Question

Currently I'm trying to make some spectogram generation for my uni project. I'm trying to build a static library where all the magic will work and just call it from the main() function.
This is my cmake file:
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)
project(demo)
find_package(SndFile REQUIRED)
add_subdirectory(spectogram)
add_executable(demo main.cpp)
target_link_libraries (demo LINK_PUBLIC Spectrogram)
target_link_libraries(demo PRIVATE SndFile::sndfile)
I have installed libsndfile via homebrew, but find_package() refuses to locate the lib and throws this error:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:6 (find_package):
By not providing "FindSndFile.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "SndFile", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "SndFile" with any
of the following names:
SndFileConfig.cmake
sndfile-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "SndFile" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"SndFile_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If
"SndFile" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
been installed.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
I`ve made some research and found out that libsndfile does not have any .cmake configs inside like other libs, that I can link easily (like OpenCV or spdlog). I would really appreciate any help to solve this horror.

With help of Tsyvarev, I figured out the solution. I used the pkg-config module and a custom cmake file, I found on the web. I will include my final cmake in case someone else will need it:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.17)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)
project(demo)
# - Try to find libsndfile
# Once done, this will define
#
# LIBSNDFILE_FOUND - system has libsndfile
# LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIRS - the libsndfile include directories
# LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARIES - link these to use libsndfile
# Use pkg-config to get hints about paths
find_package(PkgConfig QUIET)
if(PKG_CONFIG_FOUND)
pkg_check_modules(LIBSNDFILE_PKGCONF sndfile)
endif(PKG_CONFIG_FOUND)
# Include dir
find_path(LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIR
NAMES sndfile.h
PATHS ${LIBSNDFILE_PKGCONF_INCLUDE_DIRS}
)
# Library
find_library(LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARY
NAMES sndfile libsndfile-1
PATHS ${LIBSNDFILE_PKGCONF_LIBRARY_DIRS}
)
find_package(PackageHandleStandardArgs)
find_package_handle_standard_args(LibSndFile DEFAULT_MSG LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARY LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIR)
if(LIBSNDFILE_FOUND)
set(LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARIES ${LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARY})
set(LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIRS ${LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIR})
endif(LIBSNDFILE_FOUND)
mark_as_advanced(LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARY LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARIES LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIR LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIRS)
include(FindPkgConfig)
pkg_search_module(SndFile REQUIRED sndfile)
include_directories(${LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIRS})
add_subdirectory(spectogram)
add_executable(demo main.cpp)
message(STATUS "sndfile include dirs path: ${LIBSNDFILE_INCLUDE_DIRS}")
message(STATUS "sndfile libs path: ${LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARIES}")
target_link_libraries (demo LINK_PUBLIC Spectrogram)
target_link_libraries(demo PRIVATE ${LIBSNDFILE_LIBRARIES})
