Grpc.Tools - Protocol Buffers/gRPC C# Code Generation Build Integration

This package provides C# tooling support for generating C# code from .proto files in .csproj projects:

It contains protocol buffers compiler and gRPC plugin to generate C# code.
It can be used in building both grpc-dotnet projects and legacy c-core C# projects.

The package is used to automatically generate the C# code for protocol buffer messages and gRPC service stubs from .proto files. These files:

are generated on an as-needed basis each time the project is built.
aren't added to the project or checked into source control.
are a build artifact usually contained in the obj directory.

This package is optional. You may instead choose to generate the C# source files from .proto files by running the protoc compiler manually or from a script.

Simple example

To add a .proto file to a project edit the project’s .csproj file and add an item group with a <Protobuf> element that refers to the .proto file, e.g.

<ItemGroup>
    <Protobuf Include="Protos\greet.proto" />
</ItemGroup>
