Add gRPC Activator #32

Open sleipnir opened 1 year ago

sleipnir commented 1 year ago

It would be nice if this https://github.com/elixir-grpc/grpc/pull/254 was implemented before we start this item

We need to dynamically implement a grpc contract, just like we did in the Massa project, for the client for this we need at runtime to compile the proto files via FileDescriptor

Example of converting protobuf json to elixir (pseudo code):

actor = Eigr.Functions.Protocol.Actors.Actor.new(name: "Joe") {:ok, json} = Protobuf.JSON.to_encodable(actor) decoded_actor = Protobuf.JSON.decode(json, Eigr.Functions.Protocol.Actors.Actor)

With the possibility of transcoding grpc to http (https://github.com/elixir-grpc/grpc/pull/273) maybe we can solve the item https://github.com/eigr/spawn/issues/31 through this one.

When completes https://github.com/eigr/spawn/pull/302 closes this issue without the need for an Activator
