@odpf/stencil v0.3.3

Stencil nodejs client

Stencil nodejs client package provides a store to lookup protobuf descriptors and options to keep the protobuf descriptors upto date.

It has following features

• Ability to refresh protobuf descriptors in specified intervals
• Support to download descriptors from multiple urls

Installation

npm install --save @odpf/stencil

Usage

Creating a client

const { Stencil } = require('stencil');

const url = 'http://url/to/proto/descriptorset/file';
const client = await Stencil.getInstance(url, {
  shouldRefresh: true,
  refreshInterval: 43200 // 12 hrs
});

Creating a multiURLClient

const { MultiURLStencil } = require('stencil');

const url1 = 'http://url/to/proto/descriptorset/file';
const url2 = 'http://url/to/proto/descriptorset/file2';
const client = await MultiURLStencil.getInstance([url1, url2], {
  shouldRefresh: true,
  refreshInterval: 43200 // 12 hrs
});

Get proto descriptor type

const { Stencil } = require('stencil');

const url = 'http://url/to/proto/descriptorset/file';
const client = await Stencil.getInstance(url, {
  shouldRefresh: false
});
const type = client.getType('google.protobuf.DescriptorProto');

Encode/Decode message

Let's say we want to encode message for below proto message defniniton

syntax = "proto3";

package test;

message One {
  int64 field_one = 1;
}

const { Stencil } = require('stencil');

const url = 'http://url/to/proto/descriptorset/file';
const client = await Stencil.getInstance(url, {
  shouldRefresh: false
});
const type = client.getType('test.One');
// Encode
const msg = { field_one: 10 };
const errs = type.verify(msg);
if errs {
   throw new Error(`unable to serialize message: ${errs}`);
}
const encodedBuffer = type.encode(msg).finish();
// Decode
const decodedType = type.decode(encodedBuffer);
console.log(decodedType.toObject())
