# 0capture

[![Build](https://github.com/0install/0capture/actions/workflows/build.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/0install/0capture/actions/workflows/build.yml)  

0capture is a command-line tool for generating Zero Install feeds with metadata for [desktop integration](https://docs.0install.net/details/desktop-integration/). You can use it to capture the state of your system before installing an app and after. By comparing the two, 0capture can then infer which [capabilities](https://docs.0install.net/specifications/capabilities/) the app has and should be represented in its feed.

## Building

The source code is in [`src/`](src/) and generated artifacts are placed in `artifacts/`.  

The source code does not contain version numbers. Instead the version is determined during CI using [GitVersion](https://gitversion.net/).

To build install [Visual Studio 2022 v17.13 or newer](https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/) and run `.\build.ps1`.
