Install protoc

This will compile a protobuf(.proto) file into a go (.pb.go) file.

• github.com/golang/protobuf

go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/proto
go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/protoc-gen-go

Install protoc-go-inject-tag

This will inject custom tags like bson or json into the already generated go files.

• github.com/favadi/protoc-go-inject-tag

go get github.com/favadi/protoc-go-inject-tag

Example of how to Compile Protobuf into Go with Custom Tags

This examples shows how to compile the proto file then how to inject the custom tags. First cd into the directory that contains the .proto files, the first command will generate a .pb.go file the second will inject tags from comments in the .proto file with the following format // @inject_tag: bson:"_id".

The -XXX_skip=bson flag will add the bson:"-" tag to any XXX_* fields in the generated file. This will keep the XXX_* fields from being added to the database.
