Appwrite C++ SDK

Overview

This C++ SDK is built from scratch as a prototype for interacting with Appwrite's backend services.

• It allows users to perform a limited set of functionalities as of now,
• including the creation of databases, collections, and documents,
• while also enabling the retrieval of usage statistics and
• management of storage and account health.

This SDK is compatible with Appwrite server version 1.6.x.

Getting Started

Make Your First Request

Set the neccessary header files.

#include "Appwrite.hpp"

Once your SDK header is set, create the Appwrite service objects and choose the request to send.

    std::string projectId = "<your-project-id>";
    std::string apiKey = "<your-api-key>"; 

    Appwrite appwrite(projectId);

    // for the Databases instance
    Databases& databases = appwrite.getDatabases();
    databases.setup(apiKey, projectId);

Full Example

#include "Appwrite.hpp"
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    std::string projectId = "<your-project-id>";
    std::string apiKey = "<your-api-key>"; 
    std::string databaseId = "<unique-database-id>";
    std::string name = "<unique-database-name>";
    bool enabled = true;

    Appwrite appwrite(projectId);
    Databases& databases = appwrite.getDatabases();
    
    databases.setup(apiKey, projectId);
    std::string response = databases.create(databaseId, name, enabled);

    return 0;
}    

Error Handling

The Appwrite C++ SDK raises AppwriteException object with message, code and response properties. You can handle any errors by catching AppwriteException and present the message to the user or handle it yourself based on the provided error information. Below is an example.

    try {
        // Send some request here
    } catch (const AppwriteException& ex) {
        std::cerr << "Exception: " << ex.what() << std::endl;
    }
