Zupply is a light-weight, cross-platform, easy to use C++11 library packed with fundamental functions/classes best for reaserches/small projects/demos.
Github repository
Why Zupply
- Tired of repetitive coding on reading/writing files? Logging messages? Loading configurations?
- Feel desperate transferring code to another platform because you hard-coded in platform specific ways?
- Reluctant to use Boost because it’s too heavy-weight?
- Hate setting up environments on a clean computer without any develop library which is required to be linked by many programs?
-
Just want to build a small demo, why bother libraries such as OpenCV just for reading/writing images?
-
If you agree at least two of them, zupply will be the right tool.
Features
- Zero dependency, only C++ 11 standard
- Designed to be easily included in projects, no need to link
- Pure and clean, everything encapsulated in namespace zz, almost no pollution if you don’t expose the namespace (explain)
- Targeting Linux/Windows/Mac OS X/Partial Unix based OSes, meanwhile providing unified experience coding on each platform
What’s included
- CLI Argument-parser
- INI/CFG Configuration-file-parser
- Easy to use Timer and DateTime classes to measure time and datetime
- Fast sync/async Logger with rich information and highly configurable
- Cross-platform functions to handle filesystems. (create directory, check file existence, iterate through folder etc…)
- Various formatting functions to (trim/split/replace/…) strings
- Thread safe data structures for specific purposes
- ProgBar class that is designed for displaying progress bar inside consoles
- Image and ImageHdr class to do basic operations with image, for example, read(JPG, PNG, BMP, TGA, PSD, GIF, HDR, PIC)/write(JPG, PNG, TGA, BMP), crop, resize, pixel-wise access.
- A lot more
What’s under construction
- Serializer/Deserializer: for dump/read objects to/from string directly, binary should also be supported
