Libcouchbase FFI Bindings

Most of the time you want to use the couchbase crate directly, here you'll mostly find low level and contributor information.

This binding will look with pkg-config for a libcouchbase and use a pre-built binding if possible. If thats not possible two features can be used together or independently:

• build-lcb builds the lcb version which is currently defined in the build file and use that one going forward.
  • generate-binding pulls in more deps and will generate the binding either from the built lcb or the found one through pkg-config instead of using a prebuilt one.

Howto: Rebuilding the bindings.rs for a new libcouchbase version

First, make sure you have bindgen installed as a command line utility:

cargo install -f bindgen

Next, you need make and wget and then the makefile will do the rest.

couchbase-rs/couchbase-sys$ make binding VERSION=2.7.4

This will download the lcb source from github and create the binding, putting it into the src directory.
