# Async::GRPC

Asynchronous gRPC client and server implementation built on top of `protocol-grpc` and `async-http`.

[![Development Status](https://github.com/socketry/async-grpc/workflows/Test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/socketry/async-grpc/actions?workflow=Test)

## Features

`async-grpc` provides asynchronous networking and concurrency for gRPC:

- **Asynchronous client** - Wraps `Async::HTTP::Client` to provide gRPC-specific call methods with automatic message framing and status handling.
- **Method-based stubs** - Create type-safe stubs from `Protocol::GRPC::Interface` definitions. Accepts both PascalCase and snake\_case method names for convenience.
- **Server middleware** - `Dispatcher` routes requests to registered services based on path.
- **All RPC patterns** - Supports unary, server streaming, client streaming, and bidirectional streaming RPCs.
- **HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 transport** - Built on `async-http` with automatic HTTP/2 multiplexing and connection pooling.

## Usage

Please see the [project documentation](https://socketry.github.io/async-grpc/) for more details.

- [Getting Started](https://socketry.github.io/async-grpc/guides/getting-started/index) - This guide explains how to get started with `Async::GRPC` for building gRPC clients and servers.

## Releases

Please see the [project releases](https://socketry.github.io/async-grpc/releases/index) for all releases.

### v0.3.0

- **Breaking**: Renamed `DispatcherMiddleware` to `Dispatcher` for cleaner API.
- **Breaking**: Simplified `Dispatcher#register` API to `register(service, name: service.service_name)`, eliminating redundant service name specification.

### v0.2.0

- Added `Async::GRPC::RemoteError` class to encapsulate remote error details including message and backtrace extracted from response headers.
- Client-side error handling now extracts backtraces from response metadata and sets them on `RemoteError`, which is chained as the `cause` of `Protocol::GRPC::Error` for better debugging.
- Updated to use `Protocol::GRPC::Metadata.add_status!` instead of deprecated `add_status_trailer!` method.
- Tidy up request and response body handling.

### v0.1.0

- Initial hack.
