grpc Examples
==============================================
The examples require grpc-java to already be built. You are strongly encouraged
to check out a git release tag, since there will already be a build of grpc
available. Otherwise you must follow [COMPILING](../COMPILING.md).
To build the examples, run in this directory:
```
$ ./gradlew installDist
```
This creates the scripts `hello-world-server`, `hello-world-client`,
`route-guide-server`, and `route-guide-client` in the
`build/install/examples/bin/` directory that run the examples. Each
example requires the server to be running before starting the client.
For example, to try the hello world example first run:
```
$ ./build/install/examples/bin/hello-world-server
```
And in a different terminal window run:
```
$ ./build/install/examples/bin/hello-world-client
```
That's it!
Please refer to gRPC Java's [README](../README.md) and
[tutorial](http://www.grpc.io/docs/tutorials/basic/java.html) for more
information.
## Maven
If you prefer to use Maven:
```
$ mvn verify
$ # Run the server
$ mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=io.grpc.examples.helloworld.HelloWorldServer
$ # In another terminal run the client
$ mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=io.grpc.examples.helloworld.HelloWorldClient
```
