macOS throws up an annoying firewall dialog with the following question every time you start the route_guide/server: Do you want the application “server” to accept incoming network connections? This simple fix of actually typing out `localhost` seems to fix this problem.
Description
The route guide server and client demonstrate how to use grpc go libraries to perform unary, client streaming, server streaming and full duplex RPCs.
Please refer to [gRPC Basics: Go] (https://grpc.io/docs/tutorials/basic/go.html) for more information.
See the definition of the route guide service in routeguide/route_guide.proto.
Run the sample code
To compile and run the server, assuming you are in the root of the route_guide folder, i.e., .../examples/route_guide/, simply:
$ go run server/server.go
Likewise, to run the client:
$ go run client/client.go
Optional command line flags
The server and client both take optional command line flags. For example, the client and server run without TLS by default. To enable TLS:
$ go run server/server.go -tls=true
and
$ go run client/client.go -tls=true
