feed-merger will be an application to merge several feeds (Atom 1.0 or RSS 2.0)

into one single feed.

## Building from source

### Prerequisites

To build the feed-merger application from source you need a C++ compiler with

C++17 support, CMake 3.8 or later, the cURL library and the libxml2 library.

It also helps to have Git, a distributed version control system, on your build

system to get the latest source code directly from the Git repository.

Additionally, the project uses Catch (C++ Automated Test Cases in Headers) to

perform some tests.

All of that can usually be installed be typing

    apt-get install catch cmake g++ git libcurl4-gnutls-dev libxml2-dev

or

    yum install catch-devel cmake gcc-c++ git libcurl-devel libxml2-devel

into a root terminal.

### Getting the source code

Get the source directly from Git by cloning the Git repository and change to

the directory after the repository is completely cloned:

    git clone https://github.com/Thoronador/feed-merger.git ./feed-merger

    cd feed-merger

That's it, you should now have the current source code of feed-merger on your

machine.

### Build process

The build process is relatively easy, because CMake does all the preparations.

Starting in the root directory of the source, you can do the following steps:

    mkdir build

    cd build

    cmake ../

    make -j2

### Test suite

The build commands as described above also create files for a small test suite

for feed-merger. The test suite uses CTest, which usually comes with CMake.

To run the test suite, make sure you are still in the build directory that was

created during the build process and then type:

    ctest -V

If all tests succeeded, the output of the above command should end with

something like:

    100% tests passed, 0 tests failed out of 20

    Total Test time (real) =   0.64 sec

That's an indication that the basic functionality of feed-merger still works as

it was intended by the developer.
