Issue: Build fails with 3 errors when building on Windows Server 2022

[scott91e1]

Describe the bug

Pulled the latest code from main and when I go to build these are the errors.

I don't know enough Rust to know whats broken, but it looks like a path based issue.

BTW, Very cool project :)

hey @scott91e1 thanks for opening the issue.

Apologies i thought i had the documentation updated on compiling. I will make sure to push an update on compiling to the docs at https://puffycid.github.io/artemis-api/docs/Intro/installation#build-from-source

The easiest way to build the artemis CLI binary with only cargo is:

clone the repository
navigate to the cli directory/workspace

run cargo build or cargo build --release

Since you are using the latest version you will need to have cmake installed on your windows server due to recent dependency updates.

There error you are seeing is related to the experimental and optional web server and its webui

Building that is a bit more advance but is documented at: https://puffycid.github.io/artemis-api/docs/Contributing/building

Again thoguh if you just want the cli binary, you just need to install cmake and navigate to the cli directory/workspace and run cargo build

please let know if u still encounter issues. thanks

Thanks for the thoughtful reply.

Both the debug and release editions compiled without errors when built from CLI directory.
