Hello,
Following Kenton's advice, I'm starting to look at implementing protobuf
rpc over http. I have started to work on a basic java server (based on
the com.sun.net.httpserver class). I will post this at some point when I
am happier with it (currently it can only serve one dummy service that
returns the input message as is)
A request looks like this :
-----------------------------------------------------
POST /{service full name}/{method name} HTTP/1.0
Connection: close
Content-Length: {length of the serialized message}
{raw bytes of the serialized message}
-----------------------------------------------------
And a successful response looks like this:
-----------------------------------------------------
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-length: {length of the serialized response}
{raw bytes of the serialized response}
-----------------------------------------------------
Since this is very early in this, I wondered if others would have views
on this.
http is quite verbose for sending protobuf message around, but it is
likely to be implemented for a lot of languages.
Regards,
Romain
