  82. <div class="textblock"><h1>Objective</h1>
  83. <p>The service config is a mechanism that allows service owners to publish parameters to be automatically used by all clients of their service.</p>
  84. <h1>Format</h1>
  85. <p>The service config is a JSON string of the following form:</p>
  86. <p>``` { // Load balancing policy name. // Supported values are 'round_robin' and 'grpclb'. // Optional; if unset, the default behavior is pick the first available // backend. // Note that if the resolver returns only balancer addresses and no // backend addresses, gRPC will always use the 'grpclb' policy, // regardless of what this field is set to. 'loadBalancingPolicy': string,</p>
  87. <p>// Per-method configuration. Optional. 'methodConfig': [ { // The names of the methods to which this method config applies. There // must be at least one name. Each name entry must be unique across the // entire service config. If the 'method' field is empty, then this // method config specifies the defaults for all methods for the specified // service. // // For example, let's say that the service config contains the following // method config entries: // // 'methodConfig': [ // { 'name': [ { 'service': 'MyService' } ] ... }, // { 'name': [ { 'service': 'MyService', 'method': 'Foo' } ] ... } // ] // // For a request for MyService/Foo, we will use the second entry, because // it exactly matches the service and method name. // For a request for MyService/Bar, we will use the first entry, because // it provides the default for all methods of MyService. 'name': [ { // RPC service name. Required. // If using gRPC with protobuf as the IDL, then this will be of // the form "pkg.service_name", where "pkg" is the package name // defined in the proto file. 'service': string,</p>
  88. <p>// RPC method name. Optional (see above). 'method': string, } ],</p>
  89. <p>// Whether RPCs sent to this method should wait until the connection is // ready by default. If false, the RPC will abort immediately if there // is a transient failure connecting to the server. Otherwise, gRPC will // attempt to connect until the deadline is exceeded. // // The value specified via the gRPC client API will override the value // set here. However, note that setting the value in the client API will // also affect transient errors encountered during name resolution, // which cannot be caught by the value here, since the service config // is obtained by the gRPC client via name resolution. 'waitForReady': bool,</p>
  90. <p>// The default timeout in seconds for RPCs sent to this method. This can // be overridden in code. If no reply is received in the specified amount // of time, the request is aborted and a deadline-exceeded error status // is returned to the caller. // // The actual deadline used will be the minimum of the value specified // here and the value set by the application via the gRPC client API. // If either one is not set, then the other will be used. // If neither is set, then the request has no deadline. // // The format of the value is that of the 'Duration' type defined here: // <a href="https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3#json">https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3#json</a> 'timeout': string,</p>
  91. <p>// The maximum allowed payload size for an individual request or object // in a stream (client-&gt;server) in bytes. The size which is measured is // the serialized, uncompressed payload in bytes. This applies both // to streaming and non-streaming requests. // // The actual value used is the minimum of the value specified here and // the value set by the application via the gRPC client API. // If either one is not set, then the other will be used. // If neither is set, then the built-in default is used. // // If a client attempts to send an object larger than this value, it // will not be sent and the client will see an error. // Note that 0 is a valid value, meaning that the request message must // be empty. 'maxRequestMessageBytes': number,</p>
  92. <p>// The maximum allowed payload size for an individual response or object // in a stream (server-&gt;client) in bytes. The size which is measured is // the serialized, uncompressed payload in bytes. This applies both // to streaming and non-streaming requests. // // The actual value used is the minimum of the value specified here and // the value set by the application via the gRPC client API. // If either one is not set, then the other will be used. // If neither is set, then the built-in default is used. // // If a server attempts to send an object larger than this value, it // will not be sent, and the client will see an error. // Note that 0 is a valid value, meaning that the response message must // be empty. 'maxResponseMessageBytes': number } ] } ```</p>
  93. <p>Note that new per-method parameters may be added in the future as new functionality is introduced.</p>
  94. <h1>Architecture</h1>
  95. <p>A service config is associated with a server name. The <a class="el" href="naming_8md.html">name</a>resolver" plugin, when asked to resolve a particular server name, will return both the resolved addresses and the service config.</p>
  96. <p>TODO(roth): Design how the service config will be encoded in DNS.</p>
  97. <h1>APIs</h1>
  98. <p>The service config is used in the following APIs:</p>
  99. <ul>
  100. <li>In the resolver API, used by resolver plugins to return the service config to the gRPC client.</li>
  101. <li>In the gRPC client API, where users can query the channel to obtain the service config associated with the channel (for debugging purposes).</li>
  102. <li>In the gRPC client API, where users can set the service config explicitly. This is intended for use in unit tests. </li>
  103. </ul>
