  1. Add the lib into your repository as a submodule git submodule add https://github.com/biojppm/rapidyaml rapidyaml
  2. Recursively initialize this submodule git submodule update --init --recursive rapidyaml
  3. Alternatively (instead of 1. and 2.)
    • clone repository git clone --recursive https://github.com/biojppm/rapidyaml,
    • remove .git,
    • then cut and paste into your source tree
  4. Update your CMakeLists.txt
    • build the library add_subdirectory(rapidyaml)
    • find headers target_include_directories(test PRIVATE rapidyaml/src)
    • link the lib target_link_libraries(test ryml)
