This D package implements the Protocol Buffers encoding and decoding operations for both binary and JSON formats. The support library uses the generated D code that defines the messages and enum types.
Together with this library D generation support was added to protoc
. The
generated code is very simple and easy to read.
protoc-gen-d
plugin generates D code for proto3 .proto
files only.
The Protocol Buffers D support library is distributed as DUB package. Use the instructions there about how to integrate it in your project.
The DUB package contains the support library and the protoc-gen-d
protoc
plugin. In order to have the D code generation available (--d_out
option)
protoc-gen-d
needs to be specified to protoc
invocation via --plugin
option. Please see the Protocol Buffers README about installing protoc
on
your system.

dub build :protoc-gen-d
