GRPC Say

A little demo for making a business logic (a service) available over GRPC and HTTP.

Uses tiny Gophers for cuteness! \ʕ◔ϖ◔ʔ/

Install grpc, protobuf etc

go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/{proto,protoc-gen-go}
go get -u google.golang.org/grpc

Install protoc

See https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases

Build

Generate the .proto files, and build the binaries.

make

Run

Start the HTTP interface

BIND=:9000 ./bin/grpcsay_http

Start the GRPC interface

BIND=:50051 ./bin/grpcsay_server

Run the GRPC client

# ADDRESS=localhost:50051 ./bin/grpcsay_client "GRPC is fiiiine"

 _________________
< GRPC is fiiiine >
