### Shared Libraries

#### libjq

Building the `middleware` crate will require `libjq` to be installed in your system. This can be done by [installing JQ](https://jqlang.org/download/) using your system package manager, such as Homebrew on MacOS, vcpkg on Windows or apt on Linux. Depending on your installation, you may also need to manually set the `JQ_LIB_DIR` environment variable if the build cannot automatically find it. Some common places where you might find this are:

| | |
|-|-|
| `/opt/homebrew/lib` | Homebrew |
| `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu` | apt |
| `/usr/lib64` | tdnf |
| `C:\vcpkg\installed\x64-windows\lib` | vcpkg |
| `C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib` | Chocolatey |
