Extension template

zsv can easily be extended by simply creating a shared library that implements the interface specified in zsv/ext/implementation.h.

This C file is a template you can use to implement your own extension.

Using the template

To use the template:

Copy the files in this directory (Makefile, configure, and YOUR_EXTENSION_zsvext.c) to the location where your extension source will reside
Customize YOUR_EXTENSION_zsvext.c as appropriate (see comments in the C code for further details)
Optionally, rename YOUR_EXTENSION_zsvext.c and update the Makefile accordingly

To build the extension, zsvlib and related include files must be installed (Obviously, since this is a zsv extension, you need zsv to run it).

To build the shared library file, run:

./configure && make

To install, place the shared library file in any system path, or in the same folder as zsv, then run:

zsv register XX

where XX is the ID of your extension.
