embed-repo-api

A minimal example showing how to embed libfossil as a library in a Go application. It walks the basic repo lifecycle:

1. Register the default pure-Go SQLite driver via blank import (_ "github.com/danmestas/libfossil/db/driver/modernc").
2. Create a new .fossil repository in a temp directory with libfossil.Create.
3. Close the handle returned by Create and re-open the file from disk with libfossil.Open to show the two calls are distinct.
4. Make one commit via repo.Commit, then read back:
   • the project-code config value (repo.Config)
   • the timeline of checkins (repo.Timeline)
   • the files in the manifest (repo.ListFiles)
5. Close the repo and remove the temp directory.

Running

This example lives inside the root github.com/danmestas/libfossil module, so no separate go.mod is needed.

From the repo root:

go run ./examples/embed-repo-api

or:

go build ./examples/embed-repo-api

Expected output includes log lines for the created repo path, the commit RID and UUID, the project-code, one timeline entry, and one file entry (hello.txt).
