gRPC in 3 minutes (Node.js)

PREREQUISITES

This requires Node 10.x or greater.

INSTALL

Clone this repository

$ git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc-common.git

Download the grpc debian packages from the latest grpc release and install them.

Later, it will possible to install them directly using apt-get install

$ wget https://github.com/grpc/grpc/releases/download/release-0_5_0/libgrpc_0.5.0_amd64.deb
$ wget https://github.com/grpc/grpc/releases/download/release-0_5_0/libgrpc-dev_0.5.0_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i libgrpc_0.5.0_amd64.deb libgrpc-dev_0.5.0_amd64.deb

Install this package's dependencies
```
$ cd grpc-common/node
$ npm install
```

TRY IT!

Run the server

$ # from this directory (grpc_common/node).
$ node ./greeter_server.js &

Run the client

$ # from this directory
$ node ./greeter_client.js

NOTE

This directory has a copy of helloworld.proto because it currently depends on some Protocol Buffer 2.0 syntax that is deprecated in Protocol Buffer 3.0.
