📦 A C interface for https://github.com/itchio/lib7zip

libc7zip

A wrapper over lib7zip so it can be used from C without callbacks.

This uses this particular lib7zip fork:

• https://github.com/itchio/lib7zip

Building

The library is built using CMake, and downloads lib7zip automatically, all you need to do is the usual steps to build a CMake projet, for example:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

If all goes well, libc7zip.{dll,so,dylib} will be in the build/ folder. It's statically linked with lib7zip, so you don't need to worry about it.

This library was made for internal purposes, to expose the 7-zip API to https://github.com/itchio/butler.

As a result, I probably won't be accepting issues/PRs on this repo. Cheers!
