To use the tool, you need to get the grpc repository and make sure your system |
|
|
|
|
has the prerequisites for building grpc from source, given in the [installation |
|
|
|
|
instructions](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/INSTALL.md). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

In order to build the grpc command line tool from a fresh clone of the grpc |
|
|
|
|
repository, you need to run the following command to update submodules: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
git submodule update --init |
|
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You also need to have the gflags library installed on your system. On Linux |
|
|
|
|
systems, gflags can be installed with the following command: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install libgflags-dev |
|
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once the prerequisites are satisfied, you can build the command line tool with |
|
|
|
|
the command: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
