Connectors API C++ Client Library

An idiomatic C++ client library for the Connectors API, a service that enables users to create and manage connections to Google Cloud services and third-party business applications.

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

Quickstart

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

#include "google/cloud/connectors/v1/connectors_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 connectors = ::google::cloud::connectors_v1;
  auto client =
      connectors::ConnectorsClient(connectors::MakeConnectorsConnection());

  auto const parent =
      std::string{"projects/"} + argv[1] + "/locations/" + argv[2];
  for (auto r : client.ListConnections(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 connectors_v1::ConnectorsClient. All RPCs are exposed as member functions of this class. Other classes provide helpers, configuration parameters, and infrastructure to mock connectors_v1::ConnectorsClient 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.
