Cloud Run gRPC Server Streaming sample application

For a general introduction to gRPC on Go, see the official gRPC quickstart.

This sample presents:

• ./server: a gRPC server application with an RPC that streams the current time in the response (written in Go)
• ./client: a small program to query the server and show the response messages (written in Go)

Deploy gRPC server to Cloud Run

Use the following button to deploy the application to Cloud Run on your GCP project:

Once deployed successfully, note the domain name (hostname) of the service.

Make a request using the client

1. Ensure Go 1.13 (or higher) is installed on your machine.

2. Clone this repository.

3. Run the client with the hostname of the deployed service:

   cd grpc-server-streaming

   go run ./client -duration 5 -server <HOSTNAME>:443

4. Observe the output, it should be receiving and printing a message every second as the server sends them.

   end of stream

Cleanup

Remove the grpc-server-streaming Service you deployed from Cloud Run using the Cloud Console.
