Android使用gRPC（一）

首先需要配置Android studio对protobuf的支持

https://github.com/google/protobuf-gradle-plugin

第一步，添加protobuf-gradle-plugin插件

参考https://github.com/google/protobuf-gradle-plugin，在项目根目录build.gradle里添加

buildscript {
  repositories {
    mavenCentral()
  }
  dependencies {
    classpath 'com.google.protobuf:protobuf-gradle-plugin:0.8.5'
  }
}

完整示例如下

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {

    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
        //yuyong-->https://github.com/google/protobuf-gradle-plugin
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.2'
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
        // yuyong-->https://github.com/google/protobuf-gradle-plugin
        classpath 'com.google.protobuf:protobuf-gradle-plugin:0.8.5'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

同步项目

第二步，对app模块进行配置，使之支持protobuf

在app模块下build.gradle里添加：

插件配置

apply plugin: 'com.google.protobuf'

指明proto文件位置

    sourceSets {
        main {
            proto {
                srcDir 'src/main/proto'
            }
        }
    }

定义protoc编译（实际上就是根据proto生成java或者C++代码文件）规则

protobuf {
    protoc {
        artifact = 'com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.5.1-1'
    }
    generateProtoTasks {
        all().each { task ->
            task.builtins {
                remove java
            }
            task.builtins {
                java {}
                // Add cpp output without any option.
                // DO NOT omit the braces if you want this builtin to be added.
                cpp {}
            }
        }
    }
    generatedFilesBaseDir = "$projectDir/src/generated"
}

添加相关Java库支持（如果需要支持C++，需要添加C++库的支持）

    implementation 'com.google.protobuf:protobuf-java:3.5.1'
    implementation 'com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.5.1-1'

完整示例如下

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.google.protobuf'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 27
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.thinking.client"
        minSdkVersion 15
        targetSdkVersion 27
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }

    sourceSets {
        main {
            proto {
                srcDir 'src/main/proto'
            }
        }
    }
}
protobuf {
    protoc {
        artifact = 'com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.5.1-1'
    }
    generateProtoTasks {
        all().each { task ->
            task.builtins {
                remove java
            }
            task.builtins {
                java {}
                // Add cpp output without any option.
                // DO NOT omit the braces if you want this builtin to be added.
                cpp {}
            }
        }
    }
    generatedFilesBaseDir = "$projectDir/src/generated"
}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.0'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'

    implementation 'com.google.protobuf:protobuf-java:3.5.1'
    implementation 'com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.5.1-1'
}

同步，rebuild

至此，Android Studio完整了对protobuf的支持。

下面参考https://grpc.io/docs/quickstart/android.html创建一个test.proto文件

syntax = "proto3";

option java_multiple_files = true;
option java_package = "com.thinking.client";
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;
}

rebuild

可以看到在$projectDir/src/generated下可以看到由test.proto文件生成的Java和C++代码文件。
