C++ Dependency Questions
Hi,
I want to use this library in a desktop application (electron). Will end users need to install the c++ library? Or is that only required to build?
Cheers
@aakilfernandes: getdns-node is currently "only" a wrapper around the locally installed getdns library C code, and it assumes node-gyp can find getdns.h in standard locations. Did you have any success with getdns in electron so far?
I'm not familiar with Electron, but it looks like npm dependencies which requires compilation, such as sqlite, can be included. In a similar way, you might be able to build and bundle the getdns library and external dependencies with your electron app.
This is related to #29; please follow that discussion for updates.
