gRPC Server Skeleton for Java

Get Started

  1. Create a java gradle project (grpc-booking-service), under the src/main, create a ‘proto’ directory.

  2. Download the booking service definition and health checking protocol, place them under src/main/proto. These files define the gRPC methods and messages for the Reserve with Google API and Health Check.

  3. Update the build.gradle file, add dependencies and the protobuf plugin for Gradle. The introduction and guide for protobuf-gradle-plugin can be found here.

        apply plugin: 'java'
        apply plugin: 'com.google.protobuf'
    
        repositories {
            mavenCentral()
        }
    
        // updating the version in our release process.
        def grpcVersion = '1.8.0' // CURRENT_GRPC_VERSION
        def nettyTcNativeVersion = '2.0.7.Final'
    
        dependencies {
            compile "com.google.api.grpc:proto-google-common-protos:0.1.9"
            compile "io.grpc:grpc-netty:${grpcVersion}"
            compile "io.grpc:grpc-protobuf:${grpcVersion}"
            compile "io.grpc:grpc-stub:${grpcVersion}"
            compile "io.netty:netty-tcnative-boringssl-static:${nettyTcNativeVersion}"
            compile "org.bouncycastle:bcmail-jdk15:1.46"
    
            testCompile "io.grpc:grpc-testing:${grpcVersion}"
            testCompile "junit:junit:4.12"
            testCompile "org.mockito:mockito-core:1.9.5"
        }
    
        buildscript {
            repositories {
                mavenCentral()
            }
            dependencies {
                // ASSUMES GRADLE 2.12 OR HIGHER. Use plugin version 0.7.5 with earlier
                // gradle versions
                classpath 'com.google.protobuf:protobuf-gradle-plugin:0.8.1'
            }
        }
    
        protobuf {
            protoc {
                artifact = 'com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.4.0'
            }
            plugins {
                grpc {
                    artifact = "io.grpc:protoc-gen-grpc-java:${grpcVersion}"
                }
            }
            generateProtoTasks {
                all()*.plugins {
                    grpc {}
                }
            }
        }
    
        // Inform IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse or NetBeans about the generated code.
        sourceSets {
            main {
                java {
                    srcDirs 'build/generated/source/proto/main/grpc'
                    srcDirs 'build/generated/source/proto/main/java'
                }
            }
        }
    
        // Generate IntelliJ IDEA's .idea & .iml project files
        apply plugin: 'idea'
    
        // Provide convenience executables for trying out the examples.
        apply plugin: 'application'
    
        startScripts.enabled = false
    
  4. Run the following command to build the library and auto-generate code from protoc build plugin:

      ./gradlew build
    
  5. To enable TLS on the server, under src/main/certificates/ the following files are required:

    • server_cert_chain.pem your server certificate chain in PEM format
    • server_private_key.pem your private key for the server certificate chain, needs to be the PKCS#8 private key
    • trusted_client_roots.pem the root certificates that are trusted when authenticating clients, you can choose to obtain this set of trusted roots from an authority like Mozilla, or install the set of roots currently recommended by the Google Internet Authority G2. In the latter case, you may have to manually update the root certificate at times
  6. Retrieve the sample code from this repo:

      git clone https://maps-booking.googlesource.com/java-maps-booking-grpc-server-skeleton
    

    place the BookingService.java under src/main/java/ext/maps/booking/partner/v2, place Health.java under src/main/java/grpc/health/v1. In both files, follow the TODOs to complete your implementations.

  7. Update the gradle.build file to specify the generation of server executable by adding the following code:

    task bookingService(type: CreateStartScripts) {
        mainClassName = 'ext.maps.booking.partner.v2.BookingService'
        applicationName = 'booking-service'
        outputDir = new File(project.buildDir, 'tmp')
        classpath = jar.outputs.files + project.configurations.runtime
    }
    
    applicationDistribution.into('bin') {
        from(bookingService)
        fileMode = 0755
    }
    
  8. Compile the server:

    ./gradlew installDist
    
  9. Run the booking server:

    ./build/install/grpc-booking-service/bin/booking-service
