Apache OpenDAL™ C Binding (WIP)

Example

A simple read and write example

#include "assert.h"
#include "opendal.h"
#include "stdio.h"

int main()
{
    /* Initialize a operator for "memory" backend, with no options */
    opendal_result_operator_new result = opendal_operator_new("memory", 0);
    assert(result.operator_ptr != NULL);
    assert(result.error == NULL);

    /* Prepare some data to be written */
    opendal_bytes data = {
        .data = (uint8_t*)"this_string_length_is_24",
        .len = 24,
    };

    /* Write this into path "/testpath" */
    opendal_error *error = opendal_operator_write(op, "/testpath", &data);
    assert(error == NULL);

    /* We can read it out, make sure the data is the same */
    opendal_result_read r = opendal_operator_read(op, "/testpath");
    opendal_bytes read_bytes = r.data;
    assert(r.error == NULL);
    assert(read_bytes.len == 24);

    /* Lets print it out */
    for (int i = 0; i < 24; ++i) {
        printf("%c", read_bytes.data[i]);
    }
    printf("\n");

    /* the opendal_bytes read is heap allocated, please free it */
    opendal_bytes_free(&read_bytes);

    /* the operator_ptr is also heap allocated */
    opendal_operator_free(&op);
}

For more examples, please refer to ./examples

Prerequisites

To build OpenDAL C binding, the following is all you need:

  • A compiler that supports C11 and C++14, e.g. clang and gcc

  • To format the code, you need to install clang-format

    • The opendal.h is not formatted by hands when you contribute, please do not format the file. Use make format only.
    • If your contribution is related to the files under ./tests, you may format it before submitting your pull request. But notice that different versions of clang-format may format the files differently.

  • (optional) Doxygen need to be installed to generate documentations.

For Ubuntu and Debian:

# install C/C++ toolchain
sudo apt install -y build-essential

# install clang-format
sudo apt install clang-format

# install and build GTest library under /usr/lib and softlink to /usr/local/lib
sudo apt-get install libgtest-dev

# install CMake
sudo apt-get install cmake

# install Rust
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Makefile

  • To build the library and header file.

    mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make

    • The header file opendal.h is under ./include

    • The library is under ../../target/debug after building.

  • To clean the build results.

    cargo clean
cd build && make clean

  • To build and run the tests. (Note that you need to install Valgrind and GTest)

    cd build
make tests && ./tests

  • To build the examples

    cd build
make basic error_handle

Documentation

The documentation index page source is under ./docs/doxygen/html/index.html. If you want to build the documentations yourself, you could use

# this requires you to install doxygen
make doc
