Hello gRPC community, I am in the process of a major overhaul to a C++ project using gRPC extensively. Much of the work concerns going from sync to async services. Another important part is new authentication and tokens.
Up until now, all my messages, by contract, contained a field acting as a auth token for the user. Let's call it token: > message MyRequest { > pdm.PbAuthToken token = 1; // always given in > ... actual parameters > } There are template functions that add this token to all calls and others to read it back out, in order to verify authentication. Now I'm in the process of migrating to a different kind of token and verification and I came across a base class called CallCredentials, which appears to serve that very purpose but wrapped up in gRPC. Keen to explore this I came across this https://grpc.io/docs/guides/auth.html but that isn't very verbose on how this would be done. Basically, I want to attach my own token to every call (ideally, I would have some calls accepted without it as well) and not having to extract and verify it explicitly in every handler. And it must work in async server impls in order to be useful for me. Does anybody have bit of an example of this? Does it make sense to explore this or should I just stick to my existing mechanism?
