gRPC in 3 minutes (C#)
BACKGROUND
For this sample, we've already generated the server and client stubs from helloworld.proto
.
Example projects depend on NuGet packages Grpc
and Google.ProtocolBuffers
which have been already added to the project for you.
PREREQUISITES
Windows
- .NET 4.5+
- VS 2013 (with NuGet plugin installed)
Linux (Mono)
- Mono
- Monodevelop 5.9 with NuGet Add-in installed (older versions might work)
MacOS (Mono)
- Xamarin Studio (with NuGet plugin installed)
BUILD
Windows
-
Clone this repository.
-
Open solution
Greeter.sln
with Visual Studio -
Build the solution (this will automatically download NuGet dependencies)
Linux (Mono)
-
Clone this repository.
-
Install gRPC C Core using instructions in https://github.com/grpc/homebrew-grpc
-
gRPC C# depends on native shared library
libgrpc_csharp_ext.so
. To make it visible to Mono runtime, follow instructions in Using gRPC C# on Linux -
Open solution
Greeter.sln
in MonoDevelop (you need to manually restore dependencies by usingmono nuget.exe restore
if you don't have NuGet add-in) -
Build the solution.
MacOS (Mono)
- See Using gRPC C# on MacOS for more info on MacOS support.
Try it!
-
Run the server
> cd GreeterServer/bin/Debug > GreeterServer.exe
-
Run the client
> cd GreeterClient/bin/Debug > GreeterClient.exe
You can also run the server and client directly from Visual Studio.
On Linux or Mac, use mono GreeterServer.exe
and mono GreeterClient.exe
to run the server and client.
