An idiomatic C++ client library for the Google Cloud Support API, a service to Manages Google Cloud technical support cases for Customer Care support offerings.
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/support/quickstart/ directory, which should give you a taste of the Google Cloud Support API C++ client library API.
#include "google/cloud/support/v2/case_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 support = ::google::cloud::support_v2;
auto client =
support::CaseServiceClient(support::MakeCaseServiceConnection());
auto const project = google::cloud::Project(argv[1]);
for (auto c : client.ListCases(project.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
This library offers multiple *Client classes, which are listed below. Each one of these classes exposes all the RPCs for a service as member functions of the class. This library groups multiple services because they are part of the same product or are often used together. A typical example may be the administrative and data plane operations for a single product.
The library also has other classes that provide helpers, configuration parameters, and infrastructure to mock the *Client classes when testing your application.
