#include <iostream>

int main() {
    try {
        GitHubUpdater updater{ "Chaoses-Ib", "IbEverythingExt", "v0.1" };
        YAML::Node release = updater.check_for_new_release();
        if (release.IsNull()) {
            std::cout << "No new release\n";
            return;
        }

        std::cout << release["tag_name"].as<std::string>()

include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(IbUpdate
    GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/Chaoses-Ib/IbUpdateLib.git
    # it is recommanded to specify a version instead of using the main branch
    GIT_TAG        main

Building separately

vcpkg:

vcpkg install curl yaml-cpp

CMake:

cd IbUpdateLib/C++
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="C:\...\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake"
cmake --build . --config Release

For testing:

vcpkg install catch2

And add -DBUILD_TESTING=ON when calling cmake .. .
