McComms.gRPC

gRPC implementation for the McComms solution. This package provides gRPC-based implementations of the ICommsClient and ICommsServer interfaces from McComms.Core.

NOTE:

gRPC over HTTP/2 is not natively supported by most browsers due to limitations in browser APIs and the lack of full HTTP/2 support for custom protocols. As a result, this package cannot be used directly from web applications running in browsers, and it does not support Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS). For browser-based scenarios, consider using gRPC-Web or a REST API instead, or the WebSockets implementation in McComms.WebSockets.

gRPC Communication Model

gRPC uses Protocol Buffers (protobuf) for efficient serialization and HTTP/2 for transport.

Protocol Structure

The gRPC service is defined in the commands.proto file:

syntax = "proto3";

package commsproto;

service CommandService {
  rpc SendCommand (mcCommandRequest) returns (mcCommandResponse);
  rpc SubscribeToBroadcast (Empty) returns (stream mcBroadcast);
}

message mcCommandRequest {
  int32 id = 1;
  string content = 2;
}

message mcCommandResponse {
  bool success = 1;
  string message = 2;
}

message mcBroadcast {
  int32 id = 1;
  string content = 2;
}

message Empty {}

Benefits of gRPC

  • High Performance: Uses HTTP/2 for multiplexing and Protocol Buffers for efficient serialization
  • Strong Typing: Contract-first approach with .proto files
  • Bi-directional Streaming: Perfect for real-time updates via broadcast
  • Language Agnostic: Clients and servers can be implemented in different languages
  • Generated Code: Reduces boilerplate and ensures type safety
