pydantic-rpc-cli 0.11.0

CLI tool for pydantic-rpc with server runtime support

pydantic-rpc-cli

CLI tool for pydantic-rpc with built-in server runtime support.

Installation

pip install pydantic-rpc-cli

This will install:

• pydantic-rpc (core library)
• hypercorn (ASGI server)
• gunicorn (WSGI server)
• uvloop (optional asyncio performance improvement)

Usage

Generate Protobuf Files

# Generate .proto file from a service class
pydantic-rpc generate myapp.services.UserService --output ./proto/

# Also compile to Python code
pydantic-rpc generate myapp.services.UserService --compile

Run Servers

gRPC Server (default)

# Start a gRPC server
pydantic-rpc serve myapp.services.UserService --port 50051

# The CLI automatically detects if your service has async methods
# and uses AsyncIOServer or Server accordingly

Connect RPC via ASGI (HTTP/2)

# Run with Hypercorn (built-in)
pydantic-rpc serve myapp.services.UserService --asgi --port 8000

# Service will be available at:
# http://localhost:8000/UserService/

Connect RPC via WSGI (HTTP/1.1)

# Run with Gunicorn (built-in)
pydantic-rpc serve myapp.services.UserService --wsgi --port 8000

# With multiple workers
pydantic-rpc serve myapp.services.UserService --wsgi --port 8000 --workers 4

# Service will be available at:
# http://localhost:8000/UserService/

Example Service

# myapp/services.py
from pydantic_rpc import Message, AsyncIOServer

class HelloRequest(Message):
    name: str

class HelloResponse(Message):
    message: str

class GreeterService:
    async def say_hello(self, request: HelloRequest) -> HelloResponse:
        return HelloResponse(message=f"Hello, {request.name}!")

Run it:

# As gRPC
pydantic-rpc serve myapp.services.GreeterService

# As Connect RPC (HTTP/2)
pydantic-rpc serve myapp.services.GreeterService --asgi --port 8000

# As Connect RPC (HTTP/1.1)
pydantic-rpc serve myapp.services.GreeterService --wsgi --port 8000

Benefits of the Separated CLI

• Lightweight Core: The main pydantic-rpc package remains lightweight without server dependencies
• Full Server Support: When you install pydantic-rpc-cli, you get everything needed to run services
• Flexibility: Choose between gRPC, ASGI (HTTP/2), or WSGI (HTTP/1.1) at runtime
