gRPC Protobuf Loader

A utility package for loading .proto files for use with gRPC, using the latest Protobuf.js package. Please refer to protobuf.js' documentation to understands its features and limitations.

Installation

npm install @grpc/proto-loader

Usage

const protoLoader = require('@grpc/proto-loader');
const grpcLibrary = require('grpc');
// OR
const grpcLibrary = require('@grpc/grpc-js');

protoLoader.load(protoFileName, options).then(packageDefinition => {
  const packageObject = grpcLibrary.loadPackageDefinition(packageDefinition);
});
// OR
const packageDefinition = protoLoader.loadSync(protoFileName, options);
const packageObject = grpcLibrary.loadPackageDefinition(packageDefinition);

The options parameter is an object that can have the following optional properties:

Field name	Valid values	Description
keepCase	true or false	Preserve field names. The default is to change them to camel case.
longs	String or Number	The type to use to represent long values. Defaults to a Long object type.
enums	String	The type to use to represent enum values. Defaults to the numeric value.
bytes	Array or String	The type to use to represent bytes values. Defaults to Buffer.
defaults	true or false	Set default values on output objects. Defaults to false.
arrays	true or false	Set empty arrays for missing array values even if defaults is false Defaults to false.
objects	true or false	Set empty objects for missing object values even if defaults is false Defaults to false.
oneofs	true or false	Set virtual oneof properties to the present field's name. Defaults to false.
includeDirs	An array of strings	A list of search paths for imported .proto files.

The following options object closely approximates the existing behavior of grpc.load:

const options = {
  keepCase: true,
  longs: String,
  enums: String,
  defaults: true,
  oneofs: true
}
