Contains dockerfiles for gRPC in different languages

IMPORTANT: This repository contains gRPC docker images that are no longer maintained and most of them are out of date (and potentially broken).

We are working on providing an improved installation story and a better automated mechanism for updating the docker images in this repository. Until than happens, please refrain from using the docker images defined here.

About this repo

This is the Git repo containing the official Docker images for grpc.

What is gRPC ?

A high performance, open source, general RPC framework that puts mobile and HTTP/2 first, available in many programming languages. For full details, see the official gRPC documentation.

Organization

The repo is set up to mirror the structure of docker-library repos.

• For each grpc release, there is a folder named after the release version.
• Within each release folder, there is a folder containing Dockerfiles for each of the supported grpc programming languages.
• Within each language folder, there is a main Dockerfile derived from the latest stable debian release and version of the programming language.
  • Optionally, there may be sub-folders containing other docker images, e.g, 'slim' versions or versions built at other versions of debian or the programming language

The folder structure matches that used by official docker images. This anticipates the future publishing gRPC as an official docker image once it reaches it GA milestone.
