# Swift gRPC Plugin This directory contains the Swift gRPC plugin for `protoc`, the Protocol Buffer Compiler. It is built with the Swift Package Manager and the included Makefile. The resulting binary is named `protoc-gen-swiftgrpc` and can be called from `protoc` by adding the `--swiftgrpc_out` command-line option and `--plugin` option. For example, here's an invocation from the Makefile: protoc ../Examples/Echo/echo.proto --proto_path=../Examples/Echo --plugin=./protoc-gen-swiftgrpc --swiftgrpc_out=. The Swift gRPC plugin can be installed by placing the `protoc-gen-swiftgrpc` binary into one of the directories in your path. Specifying `--swiftgrpc_out` to `protoc` will automatically search the `PATH` environment variable for this binary.
