Overview

gRPC (Google Remote Procedure Call) is a high-performance, open-source framework for connecting distributed systems. The gRPC Core library is the foundational library that powers gRPC and includes the core functionality required for building gRPC-based applications.

Features

  • Efficient and high-performance communication between services

  • Support for multiple programming languages including C++, Java, Python, Go, and more

  • Simple service definition with Protocol Buffers

  • Built-in support for streaming requests and responses

  • Bi-directional streaming support

  • Authentication and encryption capabilities

  • Dynamic service discovery and load balancing

Installation

To integrate gRPC Core into your project, follow the steps below:

  1. Open your terminal or command prompt.

  2. Navigate to your project directory.

  3. Run the following command to install gRPC Core:

npm install grpc-core

Once installed, you can import the gRPC Core library into your project and begin utilizing its functionality.

Usage

To use gRPC Core, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Define your gRPC service using Protocol Buffers.

  2. Implement the server-side logic for your service.

  3. Create the gRPC server object and bind it to a specific port.

  4. Start the gRPC server to begin listening for client requests.

  5. Implement the client-side logic to interact with the server.

Example

Here’s a simple example of a gRPC server and client implementation in Python:
