Installation

Use zig fetch --save to pull a version of the library into your build.zig.zon. (This requires at least Zig 0.11.)

zig fetch --save "https://github.com/abhinav/temp.zig/archive/0.3.0.tar.gz"

Then, import the dependency in your build.zig:

pub fn build(b: *std.Build) void {
    // ...

    const temp = b.dependency("temp", .{
        .target = target,
        .optimize = optimize,
    });

And add it to the artifacts that need it:

    const exe = b.addExecutable(.{
        // ...
    });
    exe.root_module.addImport("temp", temp.module("temp"));
