Programming language agnostic API?

[adibrastegarnia]

I am wondering if this API can be programming language agnostic or somehow auto generated for different programming languages? What is the best way to implement the library for a programming language like Go?

We could expose the API as a service, say in form of a gRPC server that would be implemented using this library. You can then call the gRPCs from any language that supports gRPC. Is that what you had in mind?

@smolkaj yeah this is one of the solutions that I have in my mind which is a good starting point but potentially could raise concerns about adding one hop if it is supposed to be integrated by a controller. Auto generating Validate function in different programming languages is the best option but not sure how easy is that to achieve in this context (e.g. https://github.com/envoyproxy/protoc-gen-validate)

@smolkaj
Can we expect anything soon that addresses this issue?

I am not planning to work on this currently, but contributions are of course very welcome.
