Return type for client streaming calls.

Return type for bidirectional streaming calls.

Return type for server streaming calls.

Return type for single request - single response call.

Context for an RPC being intercepted by AsyncAuthInterceptor.

Client-side call credentials. Provide authorization with per-call granularity.

Abstraction of client-side RPC invocation.

Helper methods for generated clients to make RPC calls. Most users will use this class only indirectly and will be making calls using client object generated from protocol buffer definition files.

Represents a gRPC channel. Channels are an abstraction of long-lived connections to remote servers. More client objects can reuse the same channel. Creating a channel is an expensive operation compared to invoking a remote call so in general you should reuse a single channel for as many calls as possible.

Client-side channel credentials. Used for creation of a secure channel.

Channel option specified when creating a channel. Corresponds to grpc_channel_args from grpc/grpc.h.

Defines names of supported channel options.

Base class for client-side stubs.

Represents configuration of ClientBase. The class itself is visible to subclasses, but contents are marked as internal to make the instances opaque. The verbose name of this class was chosen to make name clash in generated code less likely.

Generic base class for client-side stubs.

Options for ContextPropagationToken.

Token for propagating context of server side handlers to child calls. In situations when a backend is making calls to another backend, it makes sense to propagate properties like deadline and cancellation token of the server call to the child call. The gRPC native layer provides some other contexts (like tracing context) that are not accessible to explicitly C# layer, but this token still allows propagating them.

Invokes client RPCs using Calls.

Encapsulates initialization and shutdown of gRPC library.

Key certificate pair (in PEM encoding).

Encapsulates the logic for serializing and deserializing messages.

Utilities for creating marshallers.

A collection of metadata entries that can be exchanged during a call. gRPC supports these types of metadata:

• Request headers - are sent by the client at the beginning of a remote call before any request messages are sent.
• Response headers - are sent by the server at the beginning of a remote call handler before any response messages are sent.
• Response trailers - are sent by the server at the end of a remote call along with resulting call status.

Metadata entry

A description of a remote method.

Thrown when remote procedure call fails. Every RpcException is associated with a resulting Status of the call.

gRPC server. A single server can server arbitrary number of services and can listen on more than one ports.

Collection of server ports.

Collection of service definitions.

Context for a server-side call.

Server side credentials.

A port exposed by a server.

Mapping of method names to server call handlers. Normally, the ServerServiceDefinition objects will be created by the BindService factory method that is part of the autogenerated code for a protocol buffers service definition.

Builder class for ServerServiceDefinition.

Client-side SSL credentials.

Server-side SSL credentials.

Provides info about current version of gRPC. See https://codingforsmarties.wordpress.com/2016/01/21/how-to-version-assemblies-destined-for-nuget/ for rationale about assembly versioning.

Options for write operations.

Details about a client-side call to be invoked.

Options for calls made by client.

Represents RPC result, which consists of StatusCode and an optional detail string.

A stream of messages to be read. Messages can be awaited await reader.MoveNext(), that returns true if there is a message available and false if there are no more messages (i.e. the stream has been closed).

On the client side, the last invocation of MoveNext() either returns false if the call has finished successfully or throws RpcException if call finished with an error. Once the call finishes, subsequent invocations of MoveNext() will continue yielding the same result (returning false or throwing an exception).

On the server side, MoveNext() does not throw exceptions. In case of a failure, the request stream will appear to be finished (MoveNext will return false) and the CancellationToken associated with the call will be cancelled to signal the failure.

A writable stream of messages.

Client-side writable stream of messages with Close capability.

Allows sharing write options between ServerCallContext and other objects.

A non-generic representation of a remote method.

A writable stream of messages that is used in server-side handlers.

Asynchronous authentication interceptor for CallCredentials.

Server-side handler for client streaming call.

Server-side handler for bidi streaming call.

Server-side handler for server streaming call.

Server-side handler for unary call.

Type of ChannelOption.

Connectivity state of a channel. Based on grpc_connectivity_state from grpc/grpc.h

Compression level based on grpc_compression_level from grpc/compression.h

Method types supported by gRPC.

Result of a remote procedure call. Based on grpc_status_code from grpc/status.h

Flags for write operations.
