Overview

The IBM Cloud Backup and Recovery service Go SDK allows developers to programmatically interact with the following IBM Cloud services:

Prerequisites

• An IBM Cloud account.
• An IAM API key to allow the SDK to access your account. Create one here.
• Go version 1.21.0 or above.

Installation

Go modules

If your application uses Go modules for dependency management (recommended), just add an import for each service that you will use in your application.
Here is an example:

import (
 "github.com/IBM/ibm-backup-recovery-sdk-go/backuprecoveryv1"
)

Next, run go build or go mod tidy to download and install the new dependencies and update your application's go.mod file.

In the example above, the backuprecoveryv1 part of the import path is the package name associated with the Example Service. See the service table above to find the appropriate package name for the services used by your application.

go get command

Alternatively, you can use the go get command to download and install the appropriate packages needed by your application:

go get -u github.com/IBM/ibm-backup-recovery-sdk-go/backuprecoveryv1

Be sure to use the appropriate package name from the service table above for the services used by your application.
