README

gRPC-Go

The Go implementation of gRPC: A high performance, open source, general RPC framework that puts mobile and HTTP/2 first. For more information see the gRPC Quick Start: Go guide.

Installation

To install this package, you need to install Go and setup your Go workspace on your computer. The simplest way to install the library is to run:

$ go get -u google.golang.org/grpc

Prerequisites

This requires Go 1.6 or later. Go 1.7 will be required as of the next gRPC-Go release (1.8).

Constraints

The grpc package should only depend on standard Go packages and a small number of exceptions. If your contribution introduces new dependencies which are NOT in the list, you need a discussion with gRPC-Go authors and consultants.

Documentation

See API documentation for package and API descriptions and find examples in the examples directory.

Performance

See the current benchmarks for some of the languages supported in this dashboard.

Status

General Availability Google Cloud Platform Launch Stages.

Constants

const (
	SupportPackageIsVersion3 = true
	SupportPackageIsVersion4 = true
	SupportPackageIsVersion5 = true
)

The SupportPackageIsVersion variables are referenced from generated protocol buffer files to ensure compatibility with the gRPC version used. The latest support package version is 5.

Older versions are kept for compatibility. They may be removed if compatibility cannot be maintained.

These constants should not be referenced from any other code.

const PickFirstBalancerName = "pick_first"

PickFirstBalancerName is the name of the pick_first balancer.

const Version = "1.10.0"

Version is the current grpc version.

Variables

var DefaultBackoffConfig = BackoffConfig{
	MaxDelay: 120 * time.Second,
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

DefaultBackoffConfig uses values specified for backoff in https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/connection-backoff.md.

var EnableTracing bool

EnableTracing controls whether to trace RPCs using the golang.org/x/net/trace package. This should only be set before any RPCs are sent or received by this program.

var (
	// ErrClientConnClosing indicates that the operation is illegal because
	// the ClientConn is closing.
	//
	// Deprecated: this error should not be relied upon by users; use the status
	// code of Canceled instead.
	ErrClientConnClosing = status.Error(codes.Canceled, "grpc: the client connection is closing")
)

var ErrClientConnTimeout = errors.New("grpc: timed out when dialing")

ErrClientConnTimeout indicates that the ClientConn cannot establish the underlying connections within the specified timeout.

Deprecated: This error is never returned by grpc and should not be referenced by users.

var ErrServerStopped = errors.New("grpc: the server has been stopped")

ErrServerStopped indicates that the operation is now illegal because of the server being stopped.

Functions

func Code

func Code(err error) codes.Code

Code returns the error code for err if it was produced by the rpc system. Otherwise, it returns codes.Unknown.

Deprecated: use status.FromError and Code method instead.

func ErrorDesc

func ErrorDesc(err error) string

ErrorDesc returns the error description of err if it was produced by the rpc system. Otherwise, it returns err.Error() or empty string when err is nil.

Deprecated: use status.FromError and Message method instead.

func Errorf

func Errorf(c codes.Code, format string, a ...interface{}) error

Errorf returns an error containing an error code and a description; Errorf returns nil if c is OK.

Deprecated: use status.Errorf instead.

func Invoke

func Invoke(ctx context.Context, method string, args, reply interface{}, cc *ClientConn, opts ...CallOption) error

Invoke sends the RPC request on the wire and returns after response is received. This is typically called by generated code.

DEPRECATED: Use ClientConn.Invoke instead.

func MethodFromServerStream

func MethodFromServerStream(stream ServerStream) (string, bool)

MethodFromServerStream returns the method string for the input stream. The returned string is in the format of "/service/method".

func NewLBBuilderWithFallbackTimeout

func NewLBBuilderWithFallbackTimeout(fallbackTimeout time.Duration) balancer.Builder

NewLBBuilderWithFallbackTimeout creates a grpclb builder with the given fallbackTimeout. If no response is received from the remote balancer within fallbackTimeout, the backend addresses from the resolved address list will be used.

Only call this function when a non-default fallback timeout is needed.

func SendHeader

func SendHeader(ctx context.Context, md metadata.MD) error

SendHeader sends header metadata. It may be called at most once. The provided md and headers set by SetHeader() will be sent.

func SetHeader

func SetHeader(ctx context.Context, md metadata.MD) error

SetHeader sets the header metadata. When called multiple times, all the provided metadata will be merged. All the metadata will be sent out when one of the following happens:

• grpc.SendHeader() is called;
• The first response is sent out;
• An RPC status is sent out (error or success).

func SetTrailer

func SetTrailer(ctx context.Context, md metadata.MD) error

SetTrailer sets the trailer metadata that will be sent when an RPC returns. When called more than once, all the provided metadata will be merged.

Types

type Address

type Address struct {
	// Addr is the server address on which a connection will be established.
	Addr string
	// Metadata is the information associated with Addr, which may be used
	// to make load balancing decision.
	Metadata interface{}
}

Address represents a server the client connects to. This is the EXPERIMENTAL API and may be changed or extended in the future.

type BackoffConfig

type BackoffConfig struct {
	// MaxDelay is the upper bound of backoff delay.
	MaxDelay time.Duration
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

BackoffConfig defines the parameters for the default gRPC backoff strategy.

type Balancer

type Balancer interface {
	// Start does the initialization work to bootstrap a Balancer. For example,
	// this function may start the name resolution and watch the updates. It will
	// be called when dialing.
	Start(target string, config BalancerConfig) error
	// Up informs the Balancer that gRPC has a connection to the server at
	// addr. It returns down which is called once the connection to addr gets
	// lost or closed.
	// TODO: It is not clear how to construct and take advantage of the meaningful error
	// parameter for down. Need realistic demands to guide.
	Up(addr Address) (down func(error))
	// Get gets the address of a server for the RPC corresponding to ctx.
	// i) If it returns a connected address, gRPC internals issues the RPC on the
	// connection to this address;
	// ii) If it returns an address on which the connection is under construction
	// (initiated by Notify(...)) but not connected, gRPC internals
	//  * fails RPC if the RPC is fail-fast and connection is in the TransientFailure or
	//  Shutdown state;
	//  or
	//  * issues RPC on the connection otherwise.
	// iii) If it returns an address on which the connection does not exist, gRPC
	// internals treats it as an error and will fail the corresponding RPC.
	//
	// Therefore, the following is the recommended rule when writing a custom Balancer.
	// If opts.BlockingWait is true, it should return a connected address or
	// block if there is no connected address. It should respect the timeout or
	// cancellation of ctx when blocking. If opts.BlockingWait is false (for fail-fast
	// RPCs), it should return an address it has notified via Notify(...) immediately
	// instead of blocking.
	//
	// The function returns put which is called once the rpc has completed or failed.
	// put can collect and report RPC stats to a remote load balancer.
	//
	// This function should only return the errors Balancer cannot recover by itself.
	// gRPC internals will fail the RPC if an error is returned.
	Get(ctx context.Context, opts BalancerGetOptions) (addr Address, put func(), err error)
	// Notify returns a channel that is used by gRPC internals to watch the addresses
	// gRPC needs to connect. The addresses might be from a name resolver or remote
	// load balancer. gRPC internals will compare it with the existing connected
	// addresses. If the address Balancer notified is not in the existing connected
	// addresses, gRPC starts to connect the address. If an address in the existing
	// connected addresses is not in the notification list, the corresponding connection
	// is shutdown gracefully. Otherwise, there are no operations to take. Note that
	// the Address slice must be the full list of the Addresses which should be connected.
	// It is NOT delta.
	Notify() <-chan []Address
	// Close shuts down the balancer.
	Close() error
}

Balancer chooses network addresses for RPCs. This is the EXPERIMENTAL API and may be changed or extended in the future.

func RoundRobin

func RoundRobin(r naming.Resolver) Balancer

RoundRobin returns a Balancer that selects addresses round-robin. It uses r to watch the name resolution updates and updates the addresses available correspondingly.

type BalancerConfig

type BalancerConfig struct {
	// DialCreds is the transport credential the Balancer implementation can
	// use to dial to a remote load balancer server. The Balancer implementations
	// can ignore this if it does not need to talk to another party securely.
	DialCreds credentials.TransportCredentials
	// Dialer is the custom dialer the Balancer implementation can use to dial
	// to a remote load balancer server. The Balancer implementations
	// can ignore this if it doesn't need to talk to remote balancer.
	Dialer func(context.Context, string) (net.Conn, error)
}

BalancerConfig specifies the configurations for Balancer.

type BalancerGetOptions

type BalancerGetOptions struct {
	// BlockingWait specifies whether Get should block when there is no
	// connected address.
	BlockingWait bool
}

BalancerGetOptions configures a Get call. This is the EXPERIMENTAL API and may be changed or extended in the future.

type CallOption

type CallOption interface {
	// contains filtered or unexported methods
}

CallOption configures a Call before it starts or extracts information from a Call after it completes.

func CallContentSubtype

func CallContentSubtype(contentSubtype string) CallOption

CallContentSubtype returns a CallOption that will set the content-subtype for a call. For example, if content-subtype is "json", the Content-Type over the wire will be "application/grpc+json". The content-subtype is converted to lowercase before being included in Content-Type. See Content-Type on https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/PROTOCOL-HTTP2.md#requests for more details.

If CallCustomCodec is not also used, the content-subtype will be used to look up the Codec to use in the registry controlled by RegisterCodec. See the documention on RegisterCodec for details on registration. The lookup of content-subtype is case-insensitive. If no such Codec is found, the call will result in an error with code codes.Internal.

If CallCustomCodec is also used, that Codec will be used for all request and response messages, with the content-subtype set to the given contentSubtype here for requests.

func CallCustomCodec

func CallCustomCodec(codec Codec) CallOption

CallCustomCodec returns a CallOption that will set the given Codec to be used for all request and response messages for a call. The result of calling String() will be used as the content-subtype in a case-insensitive manner.

See Content-Type on https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/PROTOCOL-HTTP2.md#requests for more details. Also see the documentation on RegisterCodec and CallContentSubtype for more details on the interaction between Codec and content-subtype.

This function is provided for advanced users; prefer to use only CallContentSubtype to select a registered codec instead.

func FailFast

func FailFast(failFast bool) CallOption

FailFast configures the action to take when an RPC is attempted on broken connections or unreachable servers. If failFast is true, the RPC will fail immediately. Otherwise, the RPC client will block the call until a connection is available (or the call is canceled or times out) and will retry the call if it fails due to a transient error. gRPC will not retry if data was written to the wire unless the server indicates it did not process the data. Please refer to https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/wait-for-ready.md.

By default, RPCs are "Fail Fast".

func Header

func Header(md *metadata.MD) CallOption

Header returns a CallOptions that retrieves the header metadata for a unary RPC.

func Trailer

func Trailer(md *metadata.MD) CallOption

Trailer returns a CallOptions that retrieves the trailer metadata for a unary RPC.

func UseCompressor

func UseCompressor(name string) CallOption

UseCompressor returns a CallOption which sets the compressor used when sending the request. If WithCompressor is also set, UseCompressor has higher priority.

This API is EXPERIMENTAL.

type ClientConn

type ClientConn struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

ClientConn represents a client connection to an RPC server.

func Dial

func Dial(target string, opts ...DialOption) (*ClientConn, error)

Dial creates a client connection to the given target.

func DialContext

func DialContext(ctx context.Context, target string, opts ...DialOption) (conn *ClientConn, err error)

DialContext creates a client connection to the given target. ctx can be used to cancel or expire the pending connection. Once this function returns, the cancellation and expiration of ctx will be noop. Users should call ClientConn.Close to terminate all the pending operations after this function returns.

The target name syntax is defined in https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/naming.md. e.g. to use dns resolver, a "dns:///" prefix should be applied to the target.

func (*ClientConn) Close

func (cc *ClientConn) Close() error

Close tears down the ClientConn and all underlying connections.

func (*ClientConn) GetMethodConfig

func (cc *ClientConn) GetMethodConfig(method string) MethodConfig

GetMethodConfig gets the method config of the input method. If there's an exact match for input method (i.e. /service/method), we return the corresponding MethodConfig. If there isn't an exact match for the input method, we look for the default config under the service (i.e /service/). If there is a default MethodConfig for the serivce, we return it. Otherwise, we return an empty MethodConfig.

func (*ClientConn) GetState

func (cc *ClientConn) GetState() connectivity.State

GetState returns the connectivity.State of ClientConn. This is an EXPERIMENTAL API.

func (*ClientConn) Invoke

func (cc *ClientConn) Invoke(ctx context.Context, method string, args, reply interface{}, opts ...CallOption) error

Invoke sends the RPC request on the wire and returns after response is received. This is typically called by generated code.

All errors returned by Invoke are compatible with the status package.

func (*ClientConn) NewStream

func (cc *ClientConn) NewStream(ctx context.Context, desc *StreamDesc, method string, opts ...CallOption) (ClientStream, error)

NewStream creates a new Stream for the client side. This is typically called by generated code.

func (*ClientConn) WaitForStateChange

func (cc *ClientConn) WaitForStateChange(ctx context.Context, sourceState connectivity.State) bool

WaitForStateChange waits until the connectivity.State of ClientConn changes from sourceState or ctx expires. A true value is returned in former case and false in latter. This is an EXPERIMENTAL API.

type ClientStream

type ClientStream interface {
	// Header returns the header metadata received from the server if there
	// is any. It blocks if the metadata is not ready to read.
	Header() (metadata.MD, error)
	// Trailer returns the trailer metadata from the server, if there is any.
	// It must only be called after stream.CloseAndRecv has returned, or
	// stream.Recv has returned a non-nil error (including io.EOF).
	Trailer() metadata.MD
	// CloseSend closes the send direction of the stream. It closes the stream
	// when non-nil error is met.
	CloseSend() error
	// Stream.SendMsg() may return a non-nil error when something wrong happens sending
	// the request. The returned error indicates the status of this sending, not the final
	// status of the RPC.
	//
	// Always call Stream.RecvMsg() to drain the stream and get the final
	// status, otherwise there could be leaked resources.
	Stream
}

ClientStream defines the interface a client stream has to satisfy.

func NewClientStream

func NewClientStream(ctx context.Context, desc *StreamDesc, cc *ClientConn, method string, opts ...CallOption) (ClientStream, error)

NewClientStream creates a new Stream for the client side. This is typically called by generated code.

DEPRECATED: Use ClientConn.NewStream instead.

type Codec

type Codec interface {
	// Marshal returns the wire format of v.
	Marshal(v interface{}) ([]byte, error)
	// Unmarshal parses the wire format into v.
	Unmarshal(data []byte, v interface{}) error
	// String returns the name of the Codec implementation.  This is unused by
	// gRPC.
	String() string
}

Codec defines the interface gRPC uses to encode and decode messages. Note that implementations of this interface must be thread safe; a Codec's methods can be called from concurrent goroutines.

Deprecated: use encoding.Codec instead.

type Compressor

type Compressor interface {
	// Do compresses p into w.
	Do(w io.Writer, p []byte) error
	// Type returns the compression algorithm the Compressor uses.
	Type() string
}

Compressor defines the interface gRPC uses to compress a message.

func NewGZIPCompressor

func NewGZIPCompressor() Compressor

NewGZIPCompressor creates a Compressor based on GZIP.

type Decompressor

type Decompressor interface {
	// Do reads the data from r and uncompress them.
	Do(r io.Reader) ([]byte, error)

NewGZIPDecompressor creates a Decompressor based on GZIP.

type DialOption

type DialOption func(*dialOptions)

DialOption configures how we set up the connection.

func FailOnNonTempDialError

func FailOnNonTempDialError(f bool) DialOption

FailOnNonTempDialError returns a DialOption that specifies if gRPC fails on non-temporary dial errors. If f is true, and dialer returns a non-temporary error, gRPC will fail the connection to the network address and won't try to reconnect. The default value of FailOnNonTempDialError is false. This is an EXPERIMENTAL API.

func WithAuthority

func WithAuthority(a string) DialOption

WithAuthority returns a DialOption that specifies the value to be used as the :authority pseudo-header. This value only works with WithInsecure and has no effect if TransportCredentials are present.

func WithBackoffConfig

func WithBackoffConfig(b BackoffConfig) DialOption

WithBackoffConfig configures the dialer to use the provided backoff parameters after connection failures.

Use WithBackoffMaxDelay until more parameters on BackoffConfig are opened up for use.

func WithBackoffMaxDelay

func WithBackoffMaxDelay(md time.Duration) DialOption

WithBackoffMaxDelay configures the dialer to use the provided maximum delay when backing off after failed connection attempts.

func WithBalancer

func WithBalancer(b Balancer) DialOption

WithBalancer returns a DialOption which sets a load balancer with the v1 API. Name resolver will be ignored if this DialOption is specified.

Deprecated: use the new balancer APIs in balancer package and WithBalancerName.

func WithBalancerName

func WithBalancerName(balancerName string) DialOption

WithBalancerName sets the balancer that the ClientConn will be initialized with. Balancer registered with balancerName will be used. This function panics if no balancer was registered by balancerName.

The balancer cannot be overridden by balancer option specified by service config.

This is an EXPERIMENTAL API.

func WithBlock

func WithBlock() DialOption

WithBlock returns a DialOption which makes caller of Dial blocks until the underlying connection is up. Without this, Dial returns immediately and connecting the server happens in background.

func WithCodec

func WithCodec(c Codec) DialOption

WithCompressor returns a DialOption which sets a Compressor to use for message compression. It has lower priority than the compressor set by the UseCompressor CallOption.

Deprecated: use UseCompressor instead.

func WithDecompressor

func WithDecompressor(dc Decompressor) DialOption

WithDecompressor returns a DialOption which sets a Decompressor to use for incoming message decompression. If incoming response messages are encoded using the decompressor's Type(), it will be used. Otherwise, the message encoding will be used to look up the compressor registered via encoding.RegisterCompressor, which will then be used to decompress the message. If no compressor is registered for the encoding, an Unimplemented status error will be returned.

Deprecated: use encoding.RegisterCompressor instead.

func WithDefaultCallOptions

func WithDefaultCallOptions(cos ...CallOption) DialOption

WithDefaultCallOptions returns a DialOption which sets the default CallOptions for calls over the connection.

func WithDialer

func WithDialer(f func(string, time.Duration) (net.Conn, error)) DialOption

WithDialer returns a DialOption that specifies a function to use for dialing network addresses. If FailOnNonTempDialError() is set to true, and an error is returned by f, gRPC checks the error's Temporary() method to decide if it should try to reconnect to the network address.

func WithInitialConnWindowSize

func WithInitialConnWindowSize(s int32) DialOption

WithInitialConnWindowSize returns a DialOption which sets the value for initial window size on a connection. The lower bound for window size is 64K and any value smaller than that will be ignored.

func WithInitialWindowSize

func WithInitialWindowSize(s int32) DialOption

WithInitialWindowSize returns a DialOption which sets the value for initial window size on a stream. The lower bound for window size is 64K and any value smaller than that will be ignored.

func WithInsecure

func WithInsecure() DialOption

WithInsecure returns a DialOption which disables transport security for this ClientConn. Note that transport security is required unless WithInsecure is set.

func WithKeepaliveParams

func WithKeepaliveParams(kp keepalive.ClientParameters) DialOption

WithKeepaliveParams returns a DialOption that specifies keepalive parameters for the client transport.

func WithMaxMsgSize

func WithMaxMsgSize(s int) DialOption

	// then the other will be used.  If neither is set, then the RPC has no deadline.
	Timeout *time.Duration
	// MaxReqSize is the maximum allowed payload size for an individual request in a
	// stream (client->server) in bytes. The size which is measured is the serialized
	// payload after per-message compression (but before stream compression) in bytes.
	// 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

func NewServer

func NewServer(opt ...ServerOption) *Server

NewServer creates a gRPC server which has no service registered and has not started to accept requests yet.

func (*Server) GetServiceInfo

func (s *Server) GetServiceInfo() map[string]ServiceInfo

GetServiceInfo returns a map from service names to ServiceInfo. Service names include the package names, in the form of <package>.<service>.

func (*Server) GracefulStop

RegisterService registers a service and its implementation to the gRPC server. It is called from the IDL generated code. This must be called before invoking Serve.

func (*Server) Serve

func (s *Server) Serve(lis net.Listener) error

Serve accepts incoming connections on the listener lis, creating a new ServerTransport and service goroutine for each. The service goroutines read gRPC requests and then call the registered handlers to reply to them. Serve returns when lis.Accept fails with fatal errors. lis will be closed when this method returns. Serve will return a non-nil error unless Stop or GracefulStop is called.

func (*Server) ServeHTTP

func (s *Server) ServeHTTP(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)

ServeHTTP implements the Go standard library's http.Handler interface by responding to the gRPC request r, by looking up the requested gRPC method in the gRPC server s.

The provided HTTP request must have arrived on an HTTP/2 connection. When using the Go standard library's server, practically this means that the Request must also have arrived over TLS.

To share one port (such as 443 for https) between gRPC and an existing http.Handler, use a root http.Handler such as:

if r.ProtoMajor == 2 && strings.HasPrefix(
	r.Header.Get("Content-Type"), "application/grpc") {
	grpcServer.ServeHTTP(w, r)
} else {
	yourMux.ServeHTTP(w, r)
}

Note that ServeHTTP uses Go's HTTP/2 server implementation which is totally separate from grpc-go's HTTP/2 server. Performance and features may vary between the two paths. ServeHTTP does not support some gRPC features available through grpc-go's HTTP/2 server, and it is currently EXPERIMENTAL and subject to change.

	// Otherwise, the method has no MethodConfig to use.
	Methods map[string]MethodConfig
}

	// SendMsg blocks until it sends m, the stream is done or the stream
	// breaks.
	// On error, it aborts the stream and returns an RPC status on client
	// side. On server side, it simply returns the error to the caller.
	// SendMsg is called by generated code. Also Users can call SendMsg
	// directly when it is really needed in their use cases.
	// It's safe to have a goroutine calling SendMsg and another goroutine calling
	// recvMsg on the same stream at the same time.
	// But it is not safe to call SendMsg on the same stream in different goroutines.
	SendMsg(m interface{}) error
	// RecvMsg blocks until it receives a message or the stream is
	// done. On client side, it returns io.EOF when the stream is done. On
