About:
protoc-gen-grpc-swift is a protocol buffer plugin that generates Swift client and server code from .proto files. It integrates with the gRPC Swift ecosystem to provide type-safe, idiomatic networking code. This tool streamlines building high-performance, cross-platform gRPC services in Swift.
Key Features:
  • Generates idiomatic Swift client/server stubs from .proto definitions
  • Supports modern Swift concurrency and type-safe RPCs
  • Integrates with protoc and Swift Package Manager for easy build workflows
  • Produces code compatible with gRPC Swift runtime libraries
Use Cases:
  • Building gRPC microservices in Swift for iOS, macOS, or server-side applications
  • Generating cross-language service contracts for Swift clients interacting with other gRPC backends
Alternatives:
  • protoc-gen-swift – Generates only protobuf message/code; use alongside grpc-swift for full gRPC support
  • Thrift/Swift generators – Alternative RPC IDL; gRPC is HTTP/2 based and more widely adopted for cloud-native services
