Improve vcpkg usage experience
Closed this issue · 4 comments
You already have a port made but it's not findable here https://vcpkg.io/en/packages.html and it's harder to consume than all the other vcpkg libraries. Ideally it should reside in this repo https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/tree/master/ports so yojimbo would become available to install right after installing vcpkg. For example GameNetworkingSockets by Valve is easily findable there and much easier to consume than yojimbo.
I have no idea how to do this, or time to do it, but I'd be happy to support anybody else doing this.
I think the only way is via PR to vcpkg repository. The current way is fine but mostly used with closed source libraries and a bit longer to setup. I created an issue microsoft/vcpkg#26485 maybe there is some other easier way that links to this repo.
This is huge! I use vcpkg for my projects, and I definitely agree, it's a lot harder to set up the current way. If you need any support, let me know!
If somebody wants to do this, please create a PR. I nuked the old vcpkg setup now that we don't depend on sodium and mbedtls so it should be much easier now. Thanks!
