gRPC Microservice example with NestJS

I write this example to get a starter project based on gRPC microservices with NestJS.

Folders:

• micro-svc is the gRPC service
• client-svc is the client which communicate with the gRPC sercice and it exposes a basic REST API

Requirements

If not installed, install protobuf

# MacOS
brew install protobuf

Now it will be possible to generate services from proto file. For example:

protoc --plugin=./node_modules/.bin/protoc-gen-ts_proto --ts_proto_opt=outputEncodeMethods=false,outputJsonMethods=false,outputClientImpl=false,nestJs=true --ts_proto_out=. ./src/proto/hello.proto
