Bare Metal Solution API C++ Client Library

An idiomatic C++ client library for the Bare Metal Solution API, a service that provides ways to manage Bare Metal Solution hardware installed in a regional extension located near a Google Cloud data center.

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

Quickstart

The following shows the code that you'll run in the google/cloud/baremetalsolution/quickstart/ directory, which should give you a taste of the Bare Metal Solution API C++ client library API.

#include "google/cloud/baremetalsolution/v2/bare_metal_solution_client.h"
#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) try {
  if (argc != 3) {
    std::cerr << "Usage: " << argv[0] << " project-id location-id\n";
    return 1;
  }

  namespace bms = ::google::cloud::baremetalsolution_v2;
  auto client =
      bms::BareMetalSolutionClient(bms::MakeBareMetalSolutionConnection());

  auto const parent =
      std::string{"projects/"} + argv[1] + "/locations/" + argv[2];
  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;
}

Main classes

The main class in this library is baremetalsolution_v2::BareMetalSolutionClient. All RPCs are exposed as member functions of this class. Other classes provide helpers, configuration parameters, and infrastructure to mock baremetalsolution_v2::BareMetalSolutionClient when testing your application.

Retry, Backoff, and Idempotency Policies.

The library automatically retries requests that fail with transient errors, and uses exponential backoff to backoff between retries. Application developers can override the default policies.
