This is gRPC 'Hello World'
gRPC is a high-performance, open-source remote procedure call (RPC) framework developed by Google. It allows clients and servers to communicate with each other in a straightforward and efficient manner, regardless of the programming language they are implemented in.
$python -m venv ~/venv-grpc
$source ~/venv-grpc/bin/activate
$pip install grpcio grpcio-tools
-
[Define Service]: You define your service and its methods in a .proto file using Protocol Buffers.
-
[Generate Code]: Use the Protocol Buffers compiler (protoc) to generate the client and server code in your desired programming languages.
$python -m grpc_tools.protoc -I. --python_out=. --grpc_python_out=. service.proto
-
[Implement Server]: Create a server that implements the defined service methods.
-
[Implement Client]: Create a client that calls the server's methods.
-
[Run]: Start the server and use the client to send requests and receive responses.
