GrpcForRails

Make grpc server and client easy for rails project.

grpc_for_rails provides a useful grpc_server wrapper and some flexible generators and rake tasks for rails project.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'grpc_for_rails'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install grpc_for_rails

Run grpc:install generator after install gem:

$ bin/rails g grpc:install

Start grpc_server and daemonize it:

$ bundle exec grpc_server -p grpc_server.pid -d

Stop grpc_server:

$ kill -TERM `cat grpc_server.pid`

Generate grpc_server configuration scaffold:

$ bin/rails g grpc:install

It will generate folder <rails root>/app/grpc and sub-folder [base, protos, services] which are the default location for grpc_for_rails

And it will generate file <rails root>/config/grpc_server.yml which includes all grpc_server configurations grpc_for_rails supported. You can change it for your need.

Generate grpc_server service scaffold (TODO):

$ bin/rails g grpc:service <model name>

Generate grpc_server services ruby codes for grpc proto files:

$ bin/rails g grpc:base

It will generate ruby codes based on grpc proto files in <rails root>/app/grpc/protos.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
