gRPC

These folder contains the examples for the gRPC chapter. In order to generate the gRPC stubs you need to have the corresponding plugin installed in your environment and made it available to be executed by the protoc tool. Follow the official documentation here to install all the elements you need.

The gRPC stubs are already generated in the folder. If you want to compile them you can run:

protoc -I=. --go_out=$GOPATH/src --go-grpc_out=$GOPATH/src *.proto

Observe that depending on the output folders go_out and go-grpc_out you may have to change your import statements.

A minor observation

Some examples have a client and a server. In order to make them run remember that the server port must be free, and you have to run first the server, then the client.
