gRPC stream example?

[belsakn]

Hey, is it possible to open a stream to a plugin?
I didn't find any example for stream in https://github.com/hashicorp/go-plugin/tree/master/examples

Is this repo still being maintained?

Yes, we use this project actively in all of our tools that are downloaded tens of millions of times per month. If there are significant bugs we will address them quickly, but unfortunately our examples/docs are lacking and we don't really prioritize those at the moment with other things going on. Sorry!

I'm looking for something similar. I'm looking to determine whether this library supports the use of io.Reader return types in a protobuf service and if so how. AFAIK, protobuffers don't have any support for streaming so it would be good to see how it's achieved via this library.
