Eric Anderson 3666de4427 Use more precise names for protobuf and nano
io.grpc.nano sort of seems like a "small" version of grpc-java. And
io.grpc.proto could also mean multiple things. Using "protobuf"
and "protobuf nano" gets us consistent names that are still
understandable, predictable, and more similar to protobuf project
itself.

gRPC Java Plugin for Protobuf Compiler

This generates the Java interfaces out of the service definition from a .proto file.

System Requirement

Compiling and Testing the Plugin

Change to the compiler directory:

$ cd $GRPC_JAVA_ROOT/compiler

To compile the plugin:

$ gradle java_pluginExecutable

To test the plugin with the compiler:

$ gradle test

You will see a PASS if the test succeeds.

To compile a proto file and generate Java interfaces out of the service definitions:

$ protoc --plugin=protoc-gen-java_rpc=build/binaries/java_pluginExecutable/java_plugin \
  --java_rpc_out="$OUTPUT_FILE" --proto_path="$DIR_OF_PROTO_FILE" "$PROTO_FILE"

To generate Java interfaces with protobuf nano:

$ protoc --plugin=protoc-gen-java_rpc=build/binaries/java_pluginExecutable/java_plugin \
  --java_rpc_out=nano=true:"$OUTPUT_FILE" --proto_path="$DIR_OF_PROTO_FILE" "$PROTO_FILE"
