Installing google-cloud-cpp

By default google-cloud-cpp libraries download and compile all their dependencies (see below for a complete list). This makes it easier for users to "take the library for a spin", and works well for users that "Live at Head", but does not work for package maintainers or users that prefer to compile their dependencies once and install them in /usr/local/ or a similar directory.

This document provides instructions to install the dependencies of google-cloud-cpp.

If all the dependencies of google-cloud-cpp are installed and provide CMake support files, then compiling and installing the libraries requires two commands:

cmake -H. -Bcmake-out \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_DEPENDENCY_PROVIDER=package
cmake --build cmake-out --target install

Unfortunately getting your system to this state may require multiple steps, the following sections describe how to install google-cloud-cpp on several platforms.

Using google-cloud-cpp in CMake-based projects.

Once you have installed google-cloud-cpp you can use the libraries from your own projects using find_package() in your CMakeLists.txt file:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)

find_package(storage_client REQUIRED)

add_executable(my_program my_program.cc)
target_link_libraries(my_program storage_client)

You can use a similar CMakeLists.txt to use the Cloud Bigtable C++ client:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)

find_package(bigtable_client REQUIRED)

add_executable(my_program my_program.cc)
target_link_libraries(my_program bigtable_client)

Using google-cloud-cpp in Make-based projects.

Once you have installed google-cloud-cpp you can use the libraries in your own Make-based projects using pkg-config:

GCS_CXXFLAGS   := $(shell pkg-config storage_client --cflags)
GCS_CXXLDFLAGS := $(shell pkg-config storage_client --libs-only-L)
GCS_LIBS       := $(shell pkg-config storage_client --libs-only-l)

my_storage_program: my_storage_program.cc
        $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(GCS_CXXFLAGS) $(GCS_CXXLDFLAGS) -o $@ $^ $(GCS_LIBS)

CBT_CXXFLAGS   := $(shell pkg-config bigtable_client --cflags)
CBT_CXXLDFLAGS := $(shell pkg-config bigtable_client --libs-only-L)
CBT_LIBS       := $(shell pkg-config bigtable_client --libs-only-l)

my_bigtable_program: my_bigtable_program.cc
        $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(CBT_CXXFLAGS) $(CBT_CXXLDFLAGS) -o $@ $^ $(CBT_LIBS)

Using google-cloud-cpp in Bazel-based projects.

If you use Bazel for your builds you do not need to install google-cloud-cpp. We provide a Starlark function to automatically download and compile google-cloud-cpp as part of you Bazel build. Add the following commands to your WORKSPACE file:

# Update the version and SHA256 digest as needed.
http_archive(
    name = "com_github_googleapis_google_cloud_cpp",
    url = "http://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-cpp/archive/v0.7.0.tar.gz",
    sha256 = "06bc735a117ec7ea92ea580e7f2ffa4b1cd7539e0e04f847bf500588d7f0fe90",
)

load("@com_github_googleapis_google_cloud_cpp//bazel:google_cloud_cpp_deps.bzl", "google_cloud_cpp_deps")
google_cloud_cpp_deps()

Then you can link the libraries from your BUILD files:

cc_binary(
    name = "bigtable_install_test",
    srcs = [
        "bigtable_install_test.cc",
    ],
    deps = [
        "@com_github_googleapis_google_cloud_cpp//google/cloud/bigtable:bigtable_client",
    ],
)

cc_binary(
    name = "storage_install_test",
    srcs = [
        "storage_install_test.cc",
    ],
    deps = [
        "@com_github_googleapis_google_cloud_cpp//google/cloud/storage:storage_client",
    ],
)

Required Libraries

google-cloud-cpp directly depends on the following libraries:

Library Minimum version Description
gRPC 1.16.x gRPC++ for Cloud Bigtable
libcurl 7.47.0 HTTP client library for the Google Cloud Storage client
crc32c 1.0.6 Hardware-accelerated CRC32C implementation
OpenSSL 1.0.2 Crypto functions for Google Cloud Storage authentication

Note that these libraries may also depend on other libraries. The following instructions include steps to install these indirect dependencies too.

When possible, the instructions below prefer to use pre-packaged versions of these libraries and their dependencies. In some cases the packages do not exist, or the package versions are too old to support google-cloud-cpp. If this is the case, the instructions describe how you can manually download and install these dependencies.

OpenSUSE:tumbleweed provides packages for gRPC, libcurl, and protobuf, and the versions of these packages are recent enough to support the Google Cloud Platform proto files.

sudo zypper refresh && \
sudo zypper install -y grpc-devel gzip libcurl-devel pkg-config tar wget

crc32c

There is no OpenSUSE package for this library. To install it, use:

        libcurl-devel libopenssl-devel make tar wget

crc32c

There is no OpenSUSE package for this library. To install it, use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/crc32c/archive/1.0.6.tar.gz
tar -xf 1.0.6.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/crc32c-1.0.6

      -H. -Bcmake-out/crc32c
sudo cmake --build cmake-out/crc32c --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

Protobuf

OpenSUSE Leap includes a package for protobuf-2.6, but this is too old to support the Google Cloud Platform proto files, or to support gRPC for that matter. Manually install protobuf:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/protobuf/archive/v3.6.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v3.6.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/protobuf-3.6.1/cmake
cmake \
        -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
        -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
        -Dprotobuf_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
        -H. -Bcmake-out
sudo cmake --build cmake-out --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

c-ares

Recent versions of gRPC require c-ares >= 1.11, while OpenSUSE Leap distributes c-ares-1.9. We need some additional development tools to compile this library:

sudo zypper refresh && \
sudo zypper install -y automake libtool

Manually install a newer version:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/c-ares/c-ares/archive/cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
tar -xf cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/c-ares-cares-1_14_0
./buildconf && ./configure && make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

gRPC

The gRPC Makefile uses which to determine whether the compiler is available. Install this command for the extremely rare case where it may be missing from your workstation or build server:

sudo zypper refresh && \
sudo zypper install -y which

Then gRPC can be manually installed using:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/grpc/grpc/archive/v1.19.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v1.19.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/grpc-1.19.1
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib64
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:${PATH}
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

google-cloud-cpp

We can now compile and install google-cloud-cpp.

        libc-ares-dev libc-ares2 libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev make \
        pkg-config tar wget zlib1g-dev

crc32c

There is no Ubuntu package for this library. To install it use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/crc32c/archive/1.0.6.tar.gz
tar -xf 1.0.6.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/crc32c-1.0.6

      -DCRC32C_BUILD_BENCHMARKS=OFF \
      -DCRC32C_USE_GLOG=OFF \
      -H. -Bcmake-out/crc32c
sudo cmake --build cmake-out/crc32c --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

Protobuf

While protobuf-3.0 is distributed with Ubuntu, the Google Cloud Plaform proto files require more recent versions (circa 3.4.x). To manually install a more recent version use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/protobuf/archive/v3.6.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v3.6.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/protobuf-3.6.1/cmake

        -H. -Bcmake-out
sudo cmake --build cmake-out --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

gRPC

Likewise, Ubuntu has packages for grpc-1.3.x, but this version is too old for the Google Cloud Platform APIs:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/grpc/grpc/archive/v1.19.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v1.19.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/grpc-1.19.1
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

google-cloud-cpp

Finally we can install google-cloud-cpp.

cd $HOME/google-cloud-cpp
cmake -H. -Bcmake-out \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_DEPENDENCY_PROVIDER=package \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_GMOCK_PROVIDER=external

        libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev make \
        pkg-config tar wget zlib1g-dev

crc32c

There is no Ubuntu-16.04 package for this library. To install it use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/crc32c/archive/1.0.6.tar.gz
tar -xf 1.0.6.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/crc32c-1.0.6

cd $HOME/Downloads/protobuf-3.6.1/cmake
cmake \
        -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
        -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
        -Dprotobuf_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
        -H. -Bcmake-out
sudo cmake --build cmake-out --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

c-ares

Recent versions of gRPC require c-ares >= 1.11, while Ubuntu-16.04 distributes c-ares-1.10. We need some additional development tools to compile this library:

sudo apt update && \
sudo apt install -y automake libtool

After installing these tools we can manually install a newer version of c-ares:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/c-ares/c-ares/archive/cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
tar -xf cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/c-ares-cares-1_14_0
./buildconf && ./configure && make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

gRPC

Ubuntu-16.04 does not provide packages for the C++ gRPC bindings, install the library manually:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/grpc/grpc/archive/v1.19.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v1.19.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/grpc-1.19.1
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

google-cloud-cpp

Finally we can install google-cloud-cpp.

cd $HOME/google-cloud-cpp
cmake -H. -Bcmake-out \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_DEPENDENCY_PROVIDER=package \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_GMOCK_PROVIDER=external
cmake --build cmake-out -- -j $(nproc)
cd $HOME/google-cloud-cpp/cmake-out
ctest --output-on-failure
sudo cmake --build . --target install

Ubuntu (14.04 - Trusty Tahr)

Install the minimal development tools.

We use the ubuntu-toolchain-r PPA to get a modern version of CMake:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test -y
sudo apt update && \
sudo apt install -y cmake3 git gcc g++ make pkg-config tar wget zlib1g-dev

Ubuntu:14.04 ships with a very old version of OpenSSL, this version is not supported by gRPC. We need to compile and install OpenSSL-1.0.2 from source.

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.2n.tar.gz
tar xf openssl-1.0.2n.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/openssl-1.0.2n
./config --shared
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install

Note that by default OpenSSL installs itself in /usr/local/ssl. Installing on a more conventional location, such as /usr/local or /usr, can break many programs in your system. OpenSSL 1.0.2 is actually incompatible with with OpenSSL 1.0.0 which is the version expected by the programs already installed by Ubuntu 14.04.

In any case, as the library installs itself in this non-standard location, we also need to configure CMake and other build program to find this version of OpenSSL:

export OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR=/usr/local/ssl
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/ssl/lib/pkgconfig

libcurl.

Because google-cloud-cpp uses both gRPC and curl, we need to compile libcurl against the same version of OpenSSL:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.61.0.tar.gz
tar xf curl-7.61.0.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/curl-7.61.0
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/curl
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

crc32c

There is no Ubuntu Trusty package for this library. To install it, use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/crc32c/archive/1.0.6.tar.gz
tar -xf 1.0.6.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/crc32c-1.0.6
cmake \
      -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
      -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
      -DCRC32C_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
      -DCRC32C_BUILD_BENCHMARKS=OFF \
      -DCRC32C_USE_GLOG=OFF \
      -H. -Bcmake-out/crc32c
sudo cmake --build cmake-out/crc32c --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

Protobuf

While protobuf-2.5 is distributed with Ubuntu:trusty, the Google Cloud Plaform proto files require more recent versions (circa 3.4.x). To manually install a more recent version use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/protobuf/archive/v3.6.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v3.6.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/protobuf-3.6.1/cmake
cmake \
        -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
        -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
        -Dprotobuf_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
        -H. -Bcmake-out
sudo cmake --build cmake-out --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/c-ares/c-ares/archive/cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
tar -xf cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/c-ares-cares-1_14_0
./buildconf && ./configure && make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install

gRPC

Ubuntu:trusty does not provide a package for gRPC. Manually install this library:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/ssl/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/curl/lib/pkgconfig
cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/grpc/grpc/archive/v1.19.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v1.19.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/grpc-1.19.1
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install

google-cloud-cpp

We can now compile and install google-cloud-cpp.

cd $HOME/google-cloud-cpp
cmake -H. -Bcmake-out \
    -DCMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH="/usr/local/curl;/usr/local/ssl" \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_DEPENDENCY_PROVIDER=package \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_GMOCK_PROVIDER=external
cmake --build cmake-out -- -j $(nproc)
cd $HOME/google-cloud-cpp/cmake-out
ctest --output-on-failure
sudo cmake --build . --target install

Debian (Stretch)

First install the development tools and libcurl.

On Debian Stretch, libcurl links against openssl-1.0.2, and one must link against the same version or risk an inconsistent configuration of the library. This is especially important for multi-threaded applications, as openssl-1.0.2 requires explicitly setting locking callbacks. Therefore, to use libcurl one must link against openssl-1.0.2. To do so, we need to install libssl1.0-dev. Note that this removes libssl-dev if you have it installed already, and would prevent you from compiling against openssl-1.1.0.

sudo apt update && \
sudo apt install -y build-essential cmake git gcc g++ cmake \
        libc-ares-dev libc-ares2 libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl1.0-dev make \
        pkg-config tar wget zlib1g-dev

crc32c

There is no Debian package for this library. To install it use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/crc32c/archive/1.0.6.tar.gz
tar -xf 1.0.6.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/crc32c-1.0.6
cmake \

      -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
      -DCRC32C_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
      -DCRC32C_BUILD_BENCHMARKS=OFF \
      -DCRC32C_USE_GLOG=OFF \
      -H. -Bcmake-out/crc32c
sudo cmake --build cmake-out/crc32c --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

Protobuf

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/protobuf/archive/v3.6.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v3.6.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/protobuf-3.6.1/cmake
cmake \

        -Dprotobuf_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
        -H. -Bcmake-out
sudo cmake --build cmake-out --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

gRPC

Likewise, Ubuntu has packages for grpc-1.3.x, but this version is too old for the Google Cloud Platform APIs:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/grpc/grpc/archive/v1.19.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v1.19.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/grpc-1.19.1
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

google-cloud-cpp

Finally we can install google-cloud-cpp.

cd $HOME/google-cloud-cpp
cmake -H. -Bcmake-out \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_DEPENDENCY_PROVIDER=package \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_GMOCK_PROVIDER=external
cmake --build cmake-out -- -j $(nproc)
cd $HOME/google-cloud-cpp/cmake-out
ctest --output-on-failure
sudo cmake --build . --target install

CentOS (7)

First install the development tools and OpenSSL.

The development tools distributed with CentOS (notably CMake) are too old to build google-cloud-cpp. In these instructions, we use cmake3 obtained from Software Collections.

rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install -y centos-release-scl
sudo yum-config-manager --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpms
sudo yum makecache && \
sudo yum install -y automake cmake3 curl-devel gcc gcc-c++ git libtool make \
        openssl-devel pkgconfig tar wget which zlib-devel
ln -sf /usr/bin/cmake3 /usr/bin/cmake && ln -sf /usr/bin/ctest3 /usr/bin/ctest

crc32c

There is no CentOS package for this library. To install it use:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/crc32c/archive/1.0.6.tar.gz
tar -xf 1.0.6.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/crc32c-1.0.6
cmake \

      -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
      -DCRC32C_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
      -DCRC32C_BUILD_BENCHMARKS=OFF \
      -DCRC32C_USE_GLOG=OFF \
      -H. -Bcmake-out/crc32c
sudo cmake --build cmake-out/crc32c --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

Protobuf

Likewise, manually install protobuf:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/google/protobuf/archive/v3.6.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v3.6.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/protobuf-3.6.1/cmake
cmake \
        -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
        -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
        -Dprotobuf_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
        -H. -Bcmake-out
sudo cmake --build cmake-out --target install -- -j $(nproc)
sudo ldconfig

c-ares

Recent versions of gRPC require c-ares >= 1.11, while CentOS-7 distributes c-ares-1.10. Manually install a newer version:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/c-ares/c-ares/archive/cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
tar -xf cares-1_14_0.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/c-ares-cares-1_14_0
./buildconf && ./configure && make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

gRPC

Can be manually installed using:

cd $HOME/Downloads
wget -q https://github.com/grpc/grpc/archive/v1.19.1.tar.gz
tar -xf v1.19.1.tar.gz
cd $HOME/Downloads/grpc-1.19.1
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib64
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:${PATH}
make -j $(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

google-cloud-cpp

Finally we can install google-cloud-cpp.

cd $HOME/Downloads/google-cloud-cpp
cmake -H. -Bcmake-out \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_DEPENDENCY_PROVIDER=package \
    -DGOOGLE_CLOUD_CPP_GMOCK_PROVIDER=external
cmake --build cmake-out -- -j $(nproc)
cd $HOME/Downloads/google-cloud-cpp/cmake-out
ctest --output-on-failure
sudo cmake --build . --target install
