grpc-swift/Plugin

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 plugin uses template files in the Templates directory. These files are compiled into the protoc-gen-swiftgrpc plugin executable.

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.
