Readme for warp-grpc-0.1.0.2

[back to package description]

warp-grpc

A gRPC server implementation on top of Warp's HTTP2 handler. The lib also contains a demo sever using the awesome grpcb.in Proto. The current release is an advanced technical demo, expect a few breaking changes.

Design

The library implements gRPC using a WAI middleware for a set of gRPC endpoints. Endpoint handlers differ depending of the streaming/unary-ty of individual RPCs. Bidirectional streams will be supported next.

There is little specification around the expected allowed observable states in gRPC, hence the types this library presents make conservative choices: unary RPCs expect an input before providing an output. Client stream allows to return an output only when the client has stopped streaming. Server streams wait for an input before starting to iterate sending outputs.

Usage

Generate some proto-lens code from .proto files, ideally in a separate library. Import this library and the generated proto-lens code to implement handlers for the service stanzas defined in the .proto files (see Haddocks). Finally, serve warp over TLS`.

Next steps

  • Handler type for bidirectional streams.

Limitations

  • Only supports "h2" with TLS (I'd argue it's a feature, not a bug. Don't @-me)
