I'd like to know how to add metadata to a nodejs grpc function call. I can use channel credentials when making the client with
var client = new proto.Document('some.address:8000',
grpc.credentials.createInsecure()
)
Which are send when using client.Send(doc, callback), but the go grpc server looks in the call metadata for identification information which I have to set. I tried using grpc.credentials.combineChannelCredentials with the insecure connection and a grpc.Metadata instance but I can't find the right way to do it.
The error I run into is TypeError: compose's first argument must be a CallCredentials object. I tried to follow it down but it goes into c code which loses me, I can't see what javascript type I have to give to comebineChannelCredentials to achieve what I'm looking for and the docs are a little sparse on how to achieve this.

You can pass metadata directly as an optional argument to a method call. So, for example, you could do this:
var meta = new grpc.Metadata();
meta.add('key', 'value');
client.send(doc, meta, callback);
