# gRPC C++ CSM Hello World Example This CSM example builds on the [Hello World Example](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/tree/master/examples/cpp/helloworld) and changes the gRPC client and server to test CSM observability. ## Configuration The client takes the following command-line arguments - * target - By default, the client tries to connect to the xDS "xds:///helloworld:50051" and gRPC would use xDS to resolve this target and connect to the server backend. This can be overridden to change the target. * prometheus_endpoint - Endpoint used for prometheus. Default value is localhost:9464 The server takes the following command-line arguments - * port - Port on which the Hello World service is run. Defaults to 50051. * prometheus_endpoint - Endpoint used for prometheus. Default value is localhost:9464 ## Building From the gRPC workspace folder: Client: ``` docker build -f examples/cpp/csm/observability/Dockerfile.client ``` Server: ``` docker build -f examples/cpp/csm/observability/Dockerfile.server ``` To push to a registry, add a tag to the image either by adding a `-t` flag to `docker build` command above or run: ``` docker image tag ${sha from build command above} ${tag} ``` And then push the tagged image using `docker push`
