This repository contains a client/server solution implementing the classic Greet service using the following technologies:

• Bazel
• Buf
• ConnectRPC
• Go
• GoogleApis
• Grpc Health
• Grpc Reflection
• Protocol Buffers

File Generation

There are three ways to generate the Protocol Buffer and ConnectRPC files:

1. protoc -I proto --go_out='gen/' --go_opt=paths=source_relative --connect-go_out='gen/' --connect-go_opt=paths=source_relative $(find proto -name '*.proto')

2. buf generate proto

3. bazel build

   • bazel build //proto/greet/v1:greetv1_connect_go_proto
     This command will generate the Protocol Buffers & Connect RPC files.
   • bazel build //proto/greet/v1:greetv1_connect_go_proto
     and
     bazel build //proto/greet/v1:greetv1_go_proto
     The first command generates the Protocol Buffer file.
     The second command generates the ConnectRPC file.
     It doesn't generate the Protocol Buffer file unless it has changed.

Build

There are two alternatives to build the solution depending on how you
generated the Protocol Buffer and ConnectRPC files:

1. Go Build From protoc or buf
   go build ./...

2. Bazel Build
   bazel build //...

IMPORTANT: If you want to build interchangeably using 'go build' or 'bazel build', the import paths in the generated files must be consistent. Essentially, each path in the plugin's 'out' field must be the root of the importpath & overrideimportpath in the go_proto_library blocks in proto/greet/v1/BUILD.bazel. Here is an example from this repository's code showing proper alignment between the configuration files using a path starting at 'gen'.
