An idiomatic C++ client library for the VMware Engine API, a service to programmatically manage VMware environments.

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/vmwareengine/quickstart/ directory, which should give you a taste of the VMware Engine API C++ client library API.

#include "google/cloud/vmwareengine/v1/vmware_engine_client.h"
#include "google/cloud/location.h"
#include <iostream>

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

  auto const location = google::cloud::Location(argv[1], argv[2]);

  namespace vmwareengine = ::google::cloud::vmwareengine_v1;
  auto client = vmwareengine::VmwareEngineClient(
      vmwareengine::MakeVmwareEngineConnection());

  for (auto c : client.ListPrivateClouds(location.FullName())) {
    if (!c) throw std::move(c).status();
    std::cout << c->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 vmwareengine_v1::VmwareEngineClient. All RPCs are exposed as member functions of this class. Other classes provide helpers, configuration parameters, and infrastructure to mock vmwareengine_v1::VmwareEngineClient when testing your application.
