# vcpkg-rs [![Windows](https://github.com/mcgoo/vcpkg-rs/workflows/Windows/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://github.com/mcgoo/vcpkg-rs/actions?query=workflow%3AWindows) [![macOS](https://github.com/mcgoo/vcpkg-rs/workflows/macOS/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://github.com/mcgoo/vcpkg-rs/actions?query=workflow%3AmacOS) [![Linux](https://github.com/mcgoo/vcpkg-rs/workflows/Linux/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://github.com/mcgoo/vcpkg-rs/actions?query=workflow%3ALinux) | |
[Documentation](https://docs.rs/vcpkg) [Changelog](CHANGELOG.md) | |
This is a helper for finding libraries in a [Vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) installation from cargo build scripts. It works similarly to [pkg-config](https://github.com/alexcrichton/pkg-config-rs). It works on Windows (MSVC ABI), Linux and MacOS. | |
## Example | |
Find the library named `foo` in a [Vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) installation and emit cargo metadata to link it: | |
```rust | |
// build.rs | |
fn main() { | |
vcpkg::find_package("foo").unwrap(); | |
} | |
``` | |
See the crate [documentation](https://docs.rs/vcpkg) for more information. See [cargo-vcpkg](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-vcpkg) for a convenient way of creating a vcpkg installation. | |
