grpc-stream-example

This repository serves as an example implementation of server-side streaming using gRPC

Build

To compile, you must first have the protobuf compiler extensions for golang and gRPC installed. Once you have those installed, simply run make compile and server/client binaries will be compiled for darwin and Linux platforms. These binaries can be located in the build directory

Run

To run the server, simply execute:

$ ./build/grpc-server-<platform>-amd64

With that running, in a separate terminal execute:

$ ./build/grpc-client-<platform>-amd64

The messages printed to stdout are sent over the stream from the server using a goroutine and channel. You could remove the goroutine entirely and instead communicate through the client channels from event-driven operations.
