Build from Sources

Compilation steps for Linux and macOS

1. Clone the Repository

   First, clone the repository using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh-agent.git

2. Vcpkg

   The project uses Vcpkg for dependency management. If Vcpkg's repository is already checked out, the configuration process can be slightly accelerated by ensuring that VCPKG_ROOT is set to its path. Otherwise, it will be checked out during CMake's configuration phase.

3. Configure and Build the Project

   cd wazuh-agent
   cmake src -B build
   cmake --build build

Compilation steps for Windows

   cd wazuh-agent
   cmake src -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64
