注：参考代码取自 grpc 源码目录下的 examples\cpp\helloworld

 

1. 安装 protoc 工具

• 下载 Grpc_v1.43.0_SetupFile.zip 文件，解压到任意目录
  下载链接：https://pan.baidu.com/s/1HYjfQb8CQY56QF2iAGmBNw 
  提取码：grg0
  
  
• 将解压后的 Grpc_v1.43.0_SetupFile/bin 中 的 protoc（文本文件，记录了版本信息）重命名为 protoc.version，然后将 protoc-3.18.1.0（可执行程序）拷贝一下并重命名为 protoc
  注：原 protoc-3.18.1.0 文件也是需要用的，不能直接重命名。
  
  
• 将 protoc 拷贝安装到 /usr/local/bin
  在 Grpc_v1.43.0_SetupFile 目录打开终端，执行命令如下：
  

  chmod +x bin/*
  sudo cp -r . /usr/local/

   

2. 通过 protoc 生成 c++ 代码

• 新建空文件夹 grpc_cpp_demo，在文件夹中创建 helloworld.proto 文件，示例如下：

  syntax = "proto3";
  
  option java_multiple_files = true;
  option java_package = "io.grpc.examples.helloworld";
  option java_outer_classname = "HelloWorldProto";
  option objc_class_prefix = "HLW";
  
  package helloworld;
  
  // The greeting service definition.
  service Greeter {
    // Sends a greeting
    rpc SayHello (HelloRequest) returns (HelloReply) {}
  }
  
  // The request message containing the user's name.
  message HelloRequest {
    string name = 1;
  }
  
  // The response message containing the greetings
  message HelloReply {
    string message = 1;
  }

• 生成 Protobuf 消息
  

  protoc --cpp_out=./ helloworld.proto

   

• 生成 grpc 客户端和服务器
  

  protoc --grpc_out=./ --plugin=protoc-gen-grpc=grpc_cpp_plugin helloworld.proto

   

3. 编写客户端/服务器实现自定义业务逻辑

• 新建文件 greeter_server.cc 来编写服务器端相关代码，示例文件如下：

    server->Wait();
  }
  
  int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    RunServer();
  
    return 0;
  }

4. 通过 CMake 编译项目

• 编写 CMakeLists.txt，示例如下：
  

  cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
  
  project(grpc_cpp_demo LANGUAGES CXX)
  
  set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
  set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
  
  #添加 Protobuf 和 gRPC 三方库
  find_package(Threads REQUIRED)
  find_package(Protobuf CONFIG REQUIRED)
  find_package(gRPC CONFIG REQUIRED)
  
  set(_GRPC_GRPCPP gRPC::grpc++)
  set(_GRPC_REFLECTION gRPC::grpc++_reflection)
  set(_PROTOBUF_LIBPROTOBUF protobuf::libprotobuf)
  
  message(STATUS "Using gRPC ${gRPC_VERSION}")
  message(STATUS "Using protobuf ${Protobuf_VERSION}")
  
  #生成可执行文件
  foreach(_target greeter_client greeter_server)
     add_executable(${_target}
        ${_target}.cc
        helloworld.grpc.pb.cc
        helloworld.grpc.pb.h
        helloworld.pb.cc
        helloworld.pb.h)
  
     target_link_libraries(${_target}    
        ${_GRPC_GRPCPP}
        ${_GRPC_REFLECTION}
        ${_PROTOBUF_LIBPROTOBUF})
  endforeach()

• 编译项目
  

  mkdir -p cmake/build
  pushd cmake/build
  cmake  ../..
  make -j
  popd

   

5. 运行项目

• 在目录 grpc_cpp_demo/cmake/build 打开 2 个终端，分别运行如下命令
  

  ./greeter_server

  ./greeter_client 

• 执行结果如下图所示：
