- Enhanced build, test, and development command instructions with vcpkg setup and usage examples. - Added CMake integration patterns for HTTP and JSON libraries (cpr, cpp-httplib, nlohmann-json). - Improved coding style section for clarity and standardization. - Introduced a sample header template for consistency across examples. - Revised security, region handling, and environment variable usage guidelines.
- Introduced `markdown_json.cpp`, demonstrating a two-step JSON flow using pdfRest API to upload a PDF and call the `/markdown` endpoint. - Added support for dotenv file loading to simplify setting environment variables for API integration. - Updated `.env.example` to include required and optional pdfRest API variables. - Created `CMakeLists.txt` with dependencies for `nlohmann_json` and `cpr`, enabling seamless build of the new sample.
- Generated `.gitignore` using Toptal's template for C++ and CMake. - Includes rules for object files, libraries, executables, CMake-generated files, and build directories.
- Added multiple C++ samples demonstrating API flows: JSON payload (`markdown_json`, `rasterized_pdf_json`), multipart payload (`markdown_multipart`, `rasterized_pdf_multipart`), and complex flows (`merge_different_file_types`). - Organized related samples into separate directories with dedicated `CMakeLists.txt` for modular inclusion. - Enabled dotenv-based environment variable loading for simpler integration. - Updated `CMakeLists.txt` to centralize executable output in the build directory and added necessary dependencies (`cpr`, `nlohmann_json`). - Improved sample input validation, error handling, and API key setup for seamless usability.
- Revised comments for consistency and improved guidance. - Simplified descriptions for optional variables. - Added note to avoid committing the `.env` file.
- Introduced a comprehensive README for C++ pdfRest API samples, covering prerequisites, installation, build, and execution instructions. - Documented various sample categories: JSON payload, multipart payload, and complex workflows. - Included environment variable setup, proxy support, and output handling details. - Ensured clarity and consistency with existing sample documentation.
