Couchbase C SDK 3.3

The Couchbase C client, libcouchbase (LCB), enables you to interact with a Couchbase Server cluster from the C language. It is also used by the Node.js, PHP, and Python SDKs to communicate with the Couchbase Server.

const char *connection_string = "couchbase://192.168.56.101,192.168.56.102";

lcb_CREATEOPTS *options = NULL;
lcb_createopts_create(&options, LCB_TYPE_CLUSTER);
lcb_createopts_connstr(options, connection_string, strlen(connection_string));
