gRPC

An example of gRPC using protobuf. It is a modification of the official gRPC example.

Setup

1. Install protobuf compiler and the plugin for Go.

   $ brew install protobuf
   $ go get github.com/golang/protobuf/protoc-gen-go
   $ # Run the following if you haven't done so already.
   $ export PATH="$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin"
   

2. Generate code from the protobuf definition file.

   $ mkdir hello
   $ protoc -I . hello.proto --go_out=plugins=grpc:hello
   

3. Run both server and client concurrently.

   $ go run main.go
   

   You can also run the following command that combines steps 2 and 3.
