Quick Start
-----------

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

1. `Select or create a Cloud Platform project.`_
2. `Enable billing for your project.`_
3. `Enable the Cloud Bigtable API.`_
4. `Setup Authentication.`_

.. _Select or create a Cloud Platform project.: https://console.cloud.google.com/project
.. _Enable billing for your project.: https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/modify-project#enable_billing_for_a_project
.. _Enable the Cloud Bigtable API.: https://cloud.google.com/bigtable
.. _Setup Authentication.: https://googleapis.dev/python/google-api-core/latest/auth.html

Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Install this library in a `virtualenv`_ using pip. `virtualenv`_ is a tool to
create isolated Python environments. The basic problem it addresses is one of
dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions.

With `virtualenv`_, it's possible to install this library without needing system
install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system
dependencies.

``google-cloud-happybase``
--------------------------

In addition to the core ``google-cloud-bigtable``, we provide a
`google-cloud-happybase
`__ library
with the same interface as the popular `HappyBase
`__ library. Unlike HappyBase,
``google-cloud-happybase`` uses ``google-cloud-bigtable`` under the covers,
rather than Apache HBase.
