## Libdave Installation

This library uses CGO and dynamic linking to use libdave. As such, it needs to be installed in the system beforehand

to build this library.

> [!NOTE]

> Due to the nature of this project, it might be necessary to re-install libdave when updating to a new GoDave version.

> 

> Versions requiring this will be denoted with a bump in the major version (for reference: major.minor.patch).

### Installation Script (Recommended)

We provide helpful scripts in [scripts/](https://github.com/disgoorg/godave/tree/master/scripts) to simplify installing

a compatible libdave version. Grab whichever one is applicable to your OS (`.sh` for Linux and MacOS; `ps1` for

Windows PowerShell) and (after auditing its contents) run it and follow any instructions it might output.

Once that step is complete, you can continue with the installation of GoDave.

### Manual Build

For a manual build, please clone https://github.com/discord/libdave and use revision

`74979cb33febf4ddef0c2b66e57520b339550c17`.

> [!NOTE]

> We provide no guarantees for this version of GoDave to run for other revisions other than that the one mentioned above.

> 

> As the library evolves and new versions of libdave are released, the above revision will be updated to match the

> GoDave version

Once checked out, please follow the

[build instructions](https://github.com/discord/libdave/tree/74979cb33febf4ddef0c2b66e57520b339550c17/cpp#building) and

setup the appropriate `pkg-config` file and configuration to allow for discovery at compilation time.
