gRPC in 3 minutes (Node.js) |
|
=========================== |
|
|
|
PREREQUISITES |
|
------------- |
|
|
|
- `node`: This requires Node 0.12.x or greater. |
|
|
|
INSTALL |
|
------- |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
$ # Get the gRPC repository |
|
$ export REPO_ROOT=grpc # REPO root can be any directory of your choice |
|
$ git clone -b $(curl -L http://grpc.io/release) https://github.com/grpc/grpc $REPO_ROOT |
|
$ cd $REPO_ROOT |
|
|
|
$ cd examples/node |
|
$ npm install |
|
``` |
|
|
|
TRY IT! |
|
------- |
|
|
|
There are two ways to generate the code needed to work with protocol buffers in Node.js - one approach uses [Protobuf.js](https://github.com/dcodeIO/ProtoBuf.js/) to dynamically generate the code at runtime, the other uses code statically generated using the protocol buffer compiler `protoc`. The examples behave identically, and either server can be used with either client. |
|
|
|
- Run the server |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
$ # from this directory |
|
$ node ./dynamic_codegen/greeter_server.js & |
|
$ # OR |
|
$ node ./static_codegen/greeter_server.js & |
|
``` |
|
|
|
- Run the client |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
$ # from this directory |
|
$ node ./dynamic_codegen/greeter_client.js |
|
$ # OR |
|
$ node ./static_codegen/greeter_client.js |
|
``` |
