# Google API C++ Client

**This repository is deprecated as of May 30th 2019. Please do not use this for any new projects.**

**PLEASE READ**: If you have a support contract with Google, and need help with this library - please create an issue in the [support console](https://cloud.google.com/support/).

The current installation has only been tested on Unix/Linux systems;

this release does not support Windows.

## Building

### Prerequisites:

* python   (Available from http://www.python.org/getit/)

  - verified with versions 2.6.4 and 2.7.3

* C++ compiler and Make

  - Mac OSX https://developer.apple.com/xcode/

  - Linux   http://gcc.gnu.org/

### Build Steps:

    ./prepare_dependencies.py

    mkdir build && cd build

    ../external_dependencies/install/bin/cmake ..

    make

## Running the Samples

See [src/samples/README.md](src/samples/README.md)

## Building Clients for Other APIs

To download additional APIs specialized for individual Google Services see:

http://google.github.io/google-api-cpp-client/latest/available_service_apis.html

and use this precise version of the apis client generator:

https://github.com/google/apis-client-generator/tree/dcad06f5ff0fecfcf7a029efefe62a6b6287b025

Here's an example invocation:

    $ python apis-client-generator/src/googleapis/codegen/generate_library.py --api_name=drive --api_version=v2 --language=cpp --output_dir=/tmp/generated

It should be possible to build this from existing installed libraries.

However, the build scripts are not yet written to find them. For initial

support simplicity we download and build all the dependencies in the

prepare_dependencies.py script for the time being as a one-time brute

force preparation.

## Status

  This SDK is deprecated and archived. We don't accept patches any more.

### About the branches

  The master branch is where development is done. It usually is compatible with

  the generated libraries available from from google.developers.com. On occasion

  it gets aheaad of those. It usually catches up in a few days.

  The latest generated libraries for any Google API is available automatically

  from

  https://developers.google.com/resources/api-libraries/download//\/cpp

  For example, for Drive/v2, you would use

  https://developers.google.com/resources/api-libraries/download/drive/v2/cpp
