1 # gRPC in 3 minutes (Objective-C) 2 3 ## Installation 4 5 To run this example you should have [Cocoapods](https://cocoapods.org/#install) installed, as well 6 as the relevant tools to generate the client library code (and a server in another language, for 7 testing). You can obtain the latter by following [these setup instructions](https://github.com/grpc/homebrew-grpc). 8 9 ## Hello Objective-C gRPC! 10 11 Here's how to build and run the Objective-C implementation of the [Hello World](../../protos/helloworld.proto) 12 example used in [Getting started](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/tree/master/examples). 13 14 The example code for this and our other examples lives in the `examples` directory. Clone 15 this repository to your local machine by running the following commands: 16 17 18 ```sh 19 $ git clone -b $(curl -L https://grpc.io/release) https://github.com/grpc/grpc 20 $ cd grpc 21 $ git submodule update --init 22 ``` 23 24 Change your current directory to `examples/objective-c/helloworld` 25 26 ```sh 27 $ cd examples/objective-c/helloworld 28 ``` 29 30 ### Try it! 31 To try the sample app, we need a gRPC server running locally. Let's compile and run, for example, 32 the C++ server in this repository: 33 34 ```shell 35 $ pushd ../../cpp/helloworld 36 $ make 37 $ ./greeter_server & 38 $ popd 39 ``` 40 41 Now have Cocoapods generate and install the client library for our .proto files: 42 43 ```shell 44 $ pod install 45 ``` 46 47 (This might have to compile OpenSSL, which takes around 15 minutes if Cocoapods doesn't have it yet 48 on your computer's cache.) 49 50 Finally, open the XCode workspace created by Cocoapods, and run the app. You can check the calling 51 code in `main.m` and see the results in XCode's log console. 52 53 The code sends a `HLWHelloRequest` containing the string "Objective-C" to a local server. The server 54 responds with a `HLWHelloResponse`, which contains a string that is then output to the log. 55 56 ## Tutorial 57 58 You can find a more detailed tutorial in [gRPC Basics: Objective-C](https://grpc.io/docs/tutorials/basic/objective-c.html). 59
