gRPC [Golang] Master Class Build Modern API and Microservices - GreetEveryone API Definition

The video tutorial explains how to define a bidirectional streaming API using gRPC. It covers the process of setting up protocol buffer messages in a .proto file, focusing on the greeteveryone RPC that handles streaming requests and responses. The tutorial highlights the simplicity of defining bidirectional streaming by using stream keywords. It concludes with generating and compiling the code, preparing for server implementation in the next lecture.

What is the main characteristic of a bidirectional streaming API?

• It allows only one message to be sent in total.

• It allows only the client to send multiple messages.

• It allows only the server to send multiple messages.

• It allows both client and server to send multiple messages.

In a bidirectional streaming API, what is the role of the 'stream' keyword in the protocol buffer?

• It indicates a single message is sent.

• It denotes a one-time response.

• It marks the end of a message.

• It specifies a continuous flow of messages.

What does the 'greeteveryone' request in the protocol buffer message contain?

• A goodbye message.

• A thank you message.

• A greeting message.

• A farewell message.

What is the purpose of compiling the protocol buffer file?

• To ensure the file is readable.

• To check for syntax errors.

• To generate the necessary code.

• To delete unnecessary code.

What is the next step after generating the code for the protocol buffer?

• Implementing the client.

• Testing the API.

• Deploying the API.

• Implementing the server.
