Support UNIX domain sockets #91

Closed netvl closed 5 years ago

netvl commented 7 years ago

Is it possible to support UNIX domain sockets as a transport for gRPC? For example, grpc-go supports them, while grpc-java uses Netty which can be configured to support UNIX sockets.

It looks like Stepan is away for some time.

It seems that supporting unix domain sockets should be possible. It will take some changes in rust-http2. I am working on that, but am new to Rust so it may take some time. I will update here If I can get it figured out.

I'm sorry, I've just changed an employer and very busy.

Yes, I think UDS would be a good addition. I doubt I will have time in foreseeable future to do it myself, but it someone wishes to implement it, I could help/explain/review.

bblancha commented 7 years ago

Here's the first pass of enabling UDS in rust-http2: https://github.com/stepancheg/rust-http2/pull/15

I'll work on at adapting grpc-rust to those changes in the next few days.

Once the rust-http2 change is in place, I'll open a PR in this repository using the following branch: https://github.com/bblancha/grpc-rust/tree/unix_socket
