This project is based on hyper-h2 and requires Python >= 3.10.
Example
See examples directory in the project’s repository for all available examples.

asyncio.run(main())Installation
$ pip3 install "grpclib[protobuf]"Bug fixes and new features are frequently published via release candidates:
$ pip3 install --upgrade --pre "grpclib[protobuf]"For the code generation you will also need a protoc compiler, which can be installed with protobuf system package:
$ brew install protobuf # example for macOS users
$ protoc --version
libprotoc ...Or you can use protoc compiler from the grpcio-tools Python package:
$ pip3 install grpcio-tools
$ python3 -m grpc_tools.protoc --version
libprotoc ...Note: grpcio and grpcio-tools packages are not required in runtime, grpcio-tools package will be used only during code generation.
protoc plugin
In order to use this library you will have to generate special stub files using plugin provided, which can be used like this:
$ python3 -m grpc_tools.protoc -I. --python_out=. --grpclib_python_out=. helloworld/helloworld.proto
^----- note -----^This command will generate helloworld_pb2.py and helloworld_grpc.py files.
Plugin which implements --grpclib_python_out option should be available for the protoc compiler as the protoc-gen-grpclib_python executable which should be installed by pip into your $PATH during installation of the grpclib library.
Changed in v0.3.2: --python_grpc_out option was renamed into --grpclib_python_out.
