On this page, find instructions on how to build and run the write example project on different platforms and publish data to a stream layer using HERE Data SDK for C++.
Before you run the example project, authorize to the HERE platform:
-
On the Apps & keys page, copy your application access key ID and access key secret.
For instructions on how to get the access key ID and access key secret, see Register your application section in the Identity & Access Management Developer Guide.
-
In examples/main.cpp, replace the placeholders with your access key ID, access key secret, Here Resource Name (HRN) of the catalog, and name of the layer to which you want to publish data.
You can also specify these values using the command line options.
AccessKey access_key{}; // Your access key ID and access key secret. std::string catalog; // The HRN of the catalog to which you want to publish data. std::string layer_id; // The ID of the layer inside the catalog to which you want to publish data.
To build and run the example project on Linux:
-
Enable examples of the CMake targets.
mkdir build && cd build cmake -DOLP_SDK_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON ..
-
In the build folder, build the example project.
cmake --build . --target dataservice-example
-
Execute the example project.
./examples/dataservice-example --example write --key_id "here.access.key.id" --key_secret "here.access.key.secret" --catalog "catalog" --layer_id "layer_id"
-
(Optional) To run the example with other parameters, run the help command, and then select the needed parameter.
./examples/dataservice-example --help
After building and running the example project, the following message displays automatically: "Publish Successful - TraceID: <TraceId generated by the platform>".
To integrate the Data SDK libraries in the Android example project:
- Set up the Android environment.
- In
examples/android/app/src/main/cpp/MainActivityNative.cpp.in
, replace the placeholders with your application access key ID, access key secret, catalog HRN, and layer name and specify that the example should runRunExampleWrite
.
To learn how to get the access key ID and access key secret, see the Register your application section in the Identity & Access Management Developer Guide.
-
Set
OLP_SDK_BUILD_EXAMPLES
toON
. -
Specify the path to the Android NDK toolchain file using the
CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE
variable. -
If you want to build the SDK for a specific Android platform, use the
-DANDROID_PLATFORM CMake
flag, and if you want to build the SDK for a specific Android architecture, use the-DANDROID_ABI
flag. For more details, see NDK-specific CMake variables.mkdir build && cd build cmake .. -DOLP_SDK_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$NDK_ROOT/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake -DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a
The CMake command generates a
Gradle
project in thebuild/examples/android
folder. -
Install the Data SDK libraries into the sysroot directory.
# If necessary, execute as sudo. (sudo) make install
- In the Android Studio IDE, open the
build/examples/android/build.gradle
script. - Provide your application access key ID, access key secret, catalog HRN, and layer name.
- Install and run the
dataservice_example
APK.
The main screen displays the following message: "Example has finished successfully".
To integrate the Data SDK libraries in the iOS example application written in the Objective-C language:
-
To set up the iOS development environment, install the Xcode and command-line tools.
-
Install external dependencies.
For information on dependencies and installation instructions, see the related section in the README.md file.
-
In
examples/ios/ViewController.mm
, replace the placeholders with your application access key ID, access key secret, catalog HRN, and layer name and specify that the example should runRunExampleWrite
.
To learn how to get the access key ID and access key secret, see the Register your application section in the Identity & Access Management Developer Guide.
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -GXcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/toolchains/iOS.cmake -DPLATFORM=iphoneos -DOLP_SDK_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DOLP_SDK_ENABLE_TESTING=OFF
To configure the Data SDK for a simulator, set the SIMULATOR
variable to ON
.
-
Set
OLP_SDK_BUILD_EXAMPLES
toON
. -
(Optional) To disable tests, set
OLP_SDK_ENABLE_TESTING
toOFF
. -
Specify the path to the iOS toolchain file using the
CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE
variable.The iOS toolchain file is shipped together with the SDK and located under the
<olp-sdk-root>/cmake/toolchains/iOS.cmake
.
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -GXcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/toolchains/iOS.cmake -DPLATFORM=iphoneos -DOLP_SDK_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DOLP_SDK_ENABLE_TESTING=OFF
-
Open the generated Xcode project.
open olp-cpp-sdk.xcodeproj
-
In the Xcode project, from the list of schemes, select the
dataservice-example
scheme. -
In the
dataservice-example
target, specify your application access key ID and access key secret. -
Build and run the example application.
The main UI screen displays the following message: "Example has finished successfully". For more details, check the device logs.
If you encounter an error message, for a detailed error description, check the device logs. Example of an error message: "Example failed!".
You can create a queue that streams data to data consumers in real time using a stream layer.
To publish data to the stream layer:
-
Create the
OlpClientSettings
object.For instructions, see Create platform client settings.
-
Create the
StreamLayerClientSettings
object.auto stream_client_settings = olp::dataservice::write::StreamLayerClientSettings{};
-
Create the
StreamLayerClient
object with the HERE Resource Name (HRN) of the catalog that contains the layer, the stream layer client settings from step 2, and the platform client settings from step 1.auto client = olp::dataservice::write::StreamLayerClient( olp::client::HRN{kCatalogHRN}, stream_client_settings, client_settings);
-
Create the
PublishDataRequest
object with the data that you want to publish and layer ID.auto request = PublishDataRequest().WithData(buffer).WithLayerId(kLayer);
-
Call the
PublishData
method with theDataRequest
parameter.auto futureResponse = client.PublishData(request);
-
Wait for the
PublishDataResponse
future.auto response = futureResponse.GetFuture().get();
The PublishDataResponse
object holds details of the completed operation and is used to determine operation success and access resultant data:
IsSuccessful()
– if the operation is successful, returnstrue
. Otherwise, returnsfalse
.GetResult()
– if the operation is successful, returns the following resultant data:olp::dataservice::write::PublishDataResult
GetError()
– contains error information as a result of an error in theolp::client::ApiError
object.
if (response.IsSuccessful()) {
auto response_result = response.GetResult();
// Handle success
} else {
auto api_error = response.GetError();
// Handle fail
}
