Cloud Workstations API C++ Client Library

An idiomatic C++ client library for the Cloud Workstations API, a service that provides preconfigured, customizable, and secure managed development environments on Google Cloud.

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/workstations/quickstart/ directory, which should give you a taste of the Cloud Workstations API C++ client library.

#include "google/cloud/workstations/v1/workstations_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 workstations = ::google::cloud::workstations_v1;
  auto client = workstations::WorkstationsClient(
      workstations::MakeWorkstationsConnection());

  auto const parent =
      std::string{"projects/"} + argv[1] + "/locations/" + argv[2];
  for (auto wc : client.ListWorkstationClusters(parent)) {
    if (!wc) throw std::move(wc).status();
    std::cout << wc->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 workstations_v1::WorkstationsClient. All RPCs are exposed as member functions of this class. Other classes provide helpers, configuration parameters, and infrastructure to mock workstations_v1::WorkstationsClient 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.
