Nginx & gRPC in 1.13.10

jaksprats

Hi Community,

are there any plans to support gRPC in OpenResty?

I am a huge fan of gRPCs efficiency, seems like a good match for OpenResty :)

One more vote as I just read the news about 1.13.10 adding support for gRPC. We are running OpenResty as Kubernetes Ingress Controller and more and more services on the Kubernetes cluster will speak gRPC.

Thanks!

What does "support" mean in your context?

If it's just the native Nginx grpc directives, you'd simply need to replace the bundled Nginx source with the latest release (which be compatible, but I haven't heard any noise about that).

If you're asking about Lua-land support for gRPC request inspection and manipulation, first you'll need h2 support in the ngx-lua API, which I don't think anyone has made any (announced) efforts on.

I came across https://github.com/jinq0123/grpc-lua which provides Lua-land GRPC functionality by wrapping a C++ GRPC lib. Not sure how likely it is that this would work as expected under OpenResty, as it's not in luarocks and I don't know whether it would clash with any of the OpenResty/ngx_lua API - how would one go about working that out?
