Beman Registry

This is the Beman Project's vcpkg registry

Using the registry

The typical way to use a vcpkg registry is to add it to the package manifest, see the vcpkg documentation on manifest mode for more details. Ordinary usage of the Beman Project's registry would look like:

{
  "default-registry": { /* ... */ },
  "registries": [
    {
      "kind": "git",
      "repository": "https://github.com/bemanproject/vcpkg-registry",
      "baseline": "...",
      "packages": [ "beman-*" ]
    }
  ],
  "overlay-ports": [ /* ... */ ]
}

This would provide any ports prefixed with beman- from the Beman registry when requested by a project. The Beman registry is self-sufficent and does not rely on the vcpkg built-in registry, so can also be used directly as a default registry if desired.

Adding / Updating a port

This is handled automatically by the reusable-beman-vcpkg-release.yml workflow in https://github.com/bemanproject/infra-workflows, which triggers when a new release is created.
