Build Status

gRPC on Node.js

Implementations

C-based Client and Server

Directory: packages/grpc-native-core (see here for installation information)

npm package: grpc.

This is the existing, feature-rich implementation of gRPC using a C++ addon. It works on all LTS versions of Node.js on most platforms that Node.js runs on.

Pure JavaScript Client

Directory: packages/grpc-js-core

This library is currently incomplete and experimental, built on the experimental http2 Node module.

This library implements the core functionality of gRPC purely in JavaScript, without a C++ addon. It works on the latest version of Node.js (with the --expose-http2 flag set) on all platforms that Node.js runs on.

Other Packages

gRPC Tools

Directory: packages/grpc-tools

npm package: grpc-tools

Distribution of protoc and the gRPC Node protoc plugin for ease of installation with npm.

gRPC Health Check Service

Directory: packages/grpc-health-check

npm package: grpc-health-check

Health check service for gRPC servers.
