gRPC-swagger

What is gRPC-swagger

gRPC-swagger is a gRPC debuggling tool developed based on gRPC reflection. It can be used to list and call gRPC methods using swagger-ui conveniently. As gRPC-swagger is based on gRPC reflection, you only need to enable reflection feature when starting the service and no need modifying proto files and related code implementations.

Feature List

  • Easy to use, just need enable reflection when starting the service, without modifying protos and related implementations.
  • Integrated with swagger-ui, you can see the definitions of gRPC methods and parameters conveniently.
  • Simple to call gRPC method.

Build and Run

Use released jar

wget https://github.com/grpc-swagger/grpc-swagger/releases/latest/download/grpc-swagger.jar 
java -jar grpc-swagger.jar

Build from source

mvn clean package
java -jar grpc-swagger-web/target/grpc-swagger.jar

By default it will start at port 8080, use --server.port=yourport if you want to use another port.

java -jar grpc-swagger-web/target/grpc-swagger.jar --server.port=8888

Other parameters

  • --enable.list.service=(true/false) - Weather enable list registered services through listServices api.
  • --service.expired.seconds=expiredSeconds - If expiredSeconds is greater than 0, the registered service will be expired after expiredSeconds if no access.

How to use it

  1. Run gRPC-swagger, referring to Build and Run
  2. Enable reflection when staring service. Below is a java example:
    add dependency to pom.xml: 
    <dependency>
    <groupId>io.grpc</groupId>
    <artifactId>grpc-services</artifactId>
    <version>${grpc.version}</version>
</dependency>
    enable reflection: 
    Server server = ServerBuilder.forPort(SERVER_PORT)
    .addService(new HelloServiceImpl())
    .addService(ProtoReflectionService.newInstance())
    .build()
    .start();
  3. Register endpoint. Open this page, input necessary message and click register button, gRPC-swagger will automatically scan available services and return successful registered services when finished. You can click service link jump to ui page.

  1. Use swagger-ui to see gRPC services.
  2. Click Try it out button to have a test on the gRPC method.

Parameters

  • Request：the request data of gRPC，JSON format.
  • headers：metadata（header）passing to gRPC server，JSON format. Key represent header name，value represent header value.

API

Register Endpoint

url：/register

parameters：

  • host - required, e.g. localhost
  • port - required, e.g. 12347

return example:

{
    "code": 1,
    "data": [
        {
            "service": "io.grpc.grpcswagger.showcase.HelloService",
            "endPoint": "localhost:12347"
        }
    ]
}

Services List

url: /listServices

return example:

{
    "code": 1,
    "data": [
        {
            "service": "io.grpc.grpcswagger.showcase.HelloService",
            "endPoint": "localhost:12347"
        }
    ]
}

Call gRPC Method

url: /{rawFullMethodName}

parameters：

  • rawFullMethodName - the full gRPC method name，e.g. io.grpc.grpcswagger.showcase.HelloService.GetUser
  • payload - gRPC method parameters，JSON format。 You can use endpoint parameter to specify the calling endpoint.

Swagger API

url： /v2/api-docs

return data used by swagger-ui

parameters：

  • service - full service name，e.g. io.grpc.grpcswagger.showcase.HelloService.
