1 gRPC in 3 minutes (Node.js) 2 =========================== 3 4 PREREQUISITES 5 ------------- 6 7 - `node`: This requires Node 0.12.x or greater. 8 9 INSTALL 10 ------- 11 12 ```sh 13 $ # Get the gRPC repository 14 $ export REPO_ROOT=grpc # REPO root can be any directory of your choice 15 $ git clone -b $(curl -L https://grpc.io/release) https://github.com/grpc/grpc $REPO_ROOT 16 $ cd $REPO_ROOT 17 18 $ cd examples/node 19 $ npm install 20 ``` 21 22 TRY IT! 23 ------- 24 25 There are two ways to generate the code needed to work with protocol buffers in Node.js - one approach uses [Protobuf.js](https://github.com/dcodeIO/ProtoBuf.js/) to dynamically generate the code at runtime, the other uses code statically generated using the protocol buffer compiler `protoc`. The examples behave identically, and either server can be used with either client. 26 27 - Run the server 28 29 ```sh 30 $ # from this directory 31 $ node ./dynamic_codegen/greeter_server.js & 32 $ # OR 33 $ node ./static_codegen/greeter_server.js & 34 ``` 35 36 - Run the client 37 38 ```sh 39 $ # from this directory 40 $ node ./dynamic_codegen/greeter_client.js 41 $ # OR 42 $ node ./static_codegen/greeter_client.js 43 ``` 44 45 TUTORIAL 46 -------- 47 You can find a more detailed tutorial in [gRPC Basics: Node.js][] 48 49 [Install gRPC Node]:../../src/node 50 [gRPC Basics: Node.js]:https://grpc.io/docs/tutorials/basic/node.html 51
