Setting up client libraries

This page shows how to install client libraries for the Memorystore for Memcached API so you can connect to the API with the language of your choice.

Installing the client library

Java

If you are using Maven with BOM, add this to your pom.xml file

<dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
      <artifactId>libraries-bom</artifactId>
      <version>20.8.0</version>
      <type>pom</type>
      <scope>import</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
 
<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>google-cloud-memcache</artifactId>
  </dependency>

If you are using Maven without BOM, add this to your dependencies:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
  <artifactId>google-cloud-memcache</artifactId>
  <version>0.2.1</version>
</dependency>

If you are using Gradle, add this to your dependencies:

  compile 'com.google.cloud:google-cloud-memcache:0.2.1'

If you are using SBT, add this to your dependencies:

  libraryDependencies += "com.google.cloud" % "google-cloud-memcache" % "0.2.1"

Node.js

npm install @google-cloud/memcache

Python

For more on setting up your Python development environment, refer to Python Development Environment Setup Guide.

Setting up authentication

  1. Install and initialize the gcloud CLI.

    When you initialize the gcloud CLI, be sure to specify a Google Cloud project in which you have permission to access the resources your application needs.

  2. Configure ADC:

    gcloud auth application-default login

    A sign-in screen appears. After you sign in, your credentials are stored in the local credential file used by ADC.
