grpc-pyserver-jsclient

A demo repo to connect a python server with a js cient using the gRPC framework.

quick start

docker-compose up --build

http://localhost:8081/echotest.html

python server notes

implemented only unary and one-way streaming (server -> client).

install grpcio via pip

python -m pip install grpcio  &&
  python -m pip install grpcio-tools

generate grpc code

cd server
python -m grpc_tools.protoc
  -I../common --python_out=.
  --grpc_python_out=. ../common/echo.proto

run docker container with server

(if not using docker-compose)

docker build -t grpcmatt/python-server .
docker run -p 9090:9090 grpcmatt/python-server

js client notes

All the js code for this comes straight from here: https://github.com/grpc/grpc-web

envoy

Need to use envoy server as middle man between js client to python server.
