Protocol Buffers

Generate .proto files with gRPC services included.

ProtoVisitor​

Transport layerSource code

This visitor creates a .proto file for all @service interfaces using protoc-gen-go. This should be used in conjunction with a language specific wrapper generator (for example, GRPCVisitor for Go) to generate the boilerplate code.

Example​

generates:
  proto/service.proto:
    module: 'https://deno.land/x/apex_codegen@v0.1.9/proto/mod.ts'
    visitorClass: ProtoVisitor
    config:
      options:
        go_package: github.com/apexlang/outputtest/proto
    runAfter:
      - command: |
          protoc
          --go_out=.
          --go_opt=paths=source_relative
          --go-grpc_out=.
          --go-grpc_opt=paths=source_relative
          proto/service.proto

info

You can use runAfter to execute protoc after the .proto is generated which will fully generate all your boilerplate code.
