Zig package

using zmx as a zig package #

The library in src/lib.zig is importable as the zmx package from other Zig projects. All functions take (alloc, io, ...) from std.process.Init.

1// build.zig.zon
2.dependencies = .{
3    .zmx = .{
4        .url = "git+https://github.com/neurosnap/zmx#<commit>",
5        .hash = "...",

7},

1// build.zig
2const zmx = b.dependency("zmx", .{ .target = target, .optimize = optimize });
3exe_mod.addImport("zmx", zmx.module("zmx"));

1// your source
2const zmx = @import("zmx");

4const exit_code = try zmx.run(gpa, io, "my-session", &.{"echo", "hi"}, .{});
5const sessions = try zmx.list(gpa, io);
6defer {
7    for (sessions) |s| s.deinit(gpa);
8    gpa.free(sessions);

notes #

• zmx.run creates the session (and daemon) if it doesn't exist, no need to call zmx.create first.
• zmx.create is only available when the package is built with -Ddaemon=true (the default).
• See examples/ for complete working programs.
