gRPC in 3 minutes (C#)

BACKGROUND

For this sample, we've already generated the server and client stubs from helloworld.proto.

Example projects depend on the Grpc, Grpc.Tools and Google.Protobuf NuGet packages which have been already added to the project for you.

PREREQUISITES

  • Windows: .NET Framework 4.5+, Visual Studio 2013 or 2015
  • Linux: Mono 4+, MonoDevelop 5.9+ (with NuGet add-in installed)
  • Mac OS X: Xamarin Studio 5.9+

BUILD

  • Open solution Greeter.sln with Visual Studio, Monodevelop (on Linux) or Xamarin Studio (on Mac OS X)

  • Build the solution (this will automatically download NuGet dependencies)

Try it!

  • Run the server

    > cd GreeterServer/bin/Debug
    > GreeterServer.exe
    
  • Run the client

    > cd GreeterClient/bin/Debug
    > GreeterClient.exe
    

You can also run the server and client directly from the IDE.

On Linux or Mac, use mono GreeterServer.exe and mono GreeterClient.exe to run the server and client.
