descriptor

Documentation

Overview

Package descriptor provides functions for obtaining protocol buffer descriptors for generated Go types.

These functions cannot go in package proto because they depend on the generated protobuf descriptor messages, which themselves depend on proto.

Functions

func ForMessage

func ForMessage(msg Message) (fd *protobuf.FileDescriptorProto, md *protobuf.DescriptorProto)

ForMessage returns a FileDescriptorProto and a DescriptorProto from within it describing the given message.

Types

type Message

type Message interface {
	proto.Message
	Descriptor() ([]byte, []int)
}

Message is a proto.Message with a method to return its descriptor.

Message types generated by the protocol compiler always satisfy the Message interface.
