Build and install guide

Let's take a look at how to build the project.

Fetch ZiAPI using CMake

Add the following content to your CMakeLists to fetch the ZiAPI and include its header files in your project:

include(ExternalProject)

ExternalProject_Add(
    ziapi
    GIT_REPOSITORY  https://github.com/martin-olivier/ZiAPI.git
    GIT_TAG         v5.0.0
    INSTALL_COMMAND ""
    TEST_COMMAND    ""
)

add_dependencies(zia ziapi)
ExternalProject_Get_Property(ziapi SOURCE_DIR)
include_directories(${SOURCE_DIR}/include)

💡 Don't forget to link with libdl on unix if you use dylib:

if(UNIX)
    target_link_libraries(zia PRIVATE dl)
endif()

Build and run unit tests

If you want to run unit tests on ZiAPI, do the following steps:

• Clone the ZiAPI repository
• Execute the following commands:

cmake . -B build -DUNIT_TESTS=ON
cmake --build build
./unit_tests
