Download

    implementation "io.etcd:jetcd-core:$jetcd-version"
}

Usage

// create client using endpoints
Client client = Client.builder().endpoints("http://etcd0:2379", "http://etcd1:2379", "http://etcd2:2379").build();

// create client using target which enable using any name resolution mechanism provided
// by grpc-java (i.e. dns:///foo.bar.com:2379)
Client client = Client.builder().target("ip:///etcd0:2379,etcd1:2379,etcd2:2379").build();

KV kvClient = client.getKVClient();
ByteSequence key = ByteSequence.from("test_key".getBytes());
ByteSequence value = ByteSequence.from("test_value".getBytes());

// put the key-value
kvClient.put(key, value).get();

// get the CompletableFuture
CompletableFuture<GetResponse> getFuture = kvClient.get(key);

// get the value from CompletableFuture
GetResponse response = getFuture.get();

// delete the key
kvClient.delete(key).get();

To build one ssl secured client, refer to secured client config.

For full etcd v3 API, plesase refer to the official API documentation.

Examples

The jetcd-ctl is a standalone projects that show usage of jetcd.

Launcher

The io.etcd:jetcd-test offers a convenient utility to programmatically start & stop an isolated etcd server. This can be very useful e.g. for integration testing, like so:

import io.etcd.jetcd.Client;
import io.etcd.jetcd.test.EtcdClusterExtension;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.RegisterExtension;

@RegisterExtension
public static final EtcdClusterExtension cluster = EtcdClusterExtension.builder()
        .withNodes(1)
        .build();

Client client = Client.builder().endpoints(cluster.clientEndpoints()).build();

This launcher uses the Testcontainers framework. For more info and prerequisites visit testcontainers.org.

Versioning

The project follows Semantic Versioning.

The current major version is zero (0.y.z). Anything may change at any time. The public API should not be considered stable.

Build from source

The project can be built with Gradle:

./gradlew compileJava

Running tests

The project is tested against a three node etcd setup started with the Launcher (above) :

$ ./gradlew test

Troubleshooting

It recommmonds building the project before running tests so that you have artifacts locally. It will solve some problems if the latest snapshot hasn't been uploaded or network issues.
