Cloud Memorystore for Memcached API C++ Client Library

This directory contains an idiomatic C++ client library for the Cloud Memorystore for Memcached API, a service for creating and managing Memcached instances in GCP.

While this library is GA, please note that the Google Cloud C++ client libraries do not follow Semantic Versioning.

Quickstart

The quickstart/ directory contains a minimal environment to get started using this client library in a larger project. The following "Hello World" program is used in this quickstart, and should give you a taste of this library.

For detailed instructions on how to build and install this library, see the top-level README.

#include "google/cloud/memcache/cloud_memcache_client.h"
#include "google/cloud/project.h"
#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) try {
  if (argc != 2) {
    std::cerr << "Usage: " << argv[0] << " project-id\n";
    return 1;
  }

  namespace memcache = ::google::cloud::memcache;
  auto client =
      memcache::CloudMemcacheClient(memcache::MakeCloudMemcacheConnection());

  auto const project_id = std::string(argv[1]);
  auto const parent = "projects/" + project_id + "/locations/-";
  for (auto r : client.ListInstances(parent)) {
    if (!r) throw std::move(r).status();
    std::cout << r->DebugString() << "\n";
  }

  return 0;
} catch (google::cloud::Status const& status) {
  std::cerr << "google::cloud::Status thrown: " << status << "\n";
  return 1;
}
