/**

import * as grpc from "@grpc/grpc-js";
import { GetSomethingReq, SomethingClient } from "../stubs/something/...";

const client = new SomethingClient(
  "example.com:80",
  grpc.credentials.createInsecure()
);

const req = new GetSomethingReq();
req.setId("...");
req.setSomeOption(false);

client.getSomething(req, (error, response) => {
  console.log(response);
});

/**
 * with `grpc-modern`
 */
import { makeModernClient } from "grpc-modern";

const client = makeModernClient(SomethingClient, {
  address: "example.com:80",
  credential: grpc.credentials.createInsecure(),
});

const response = await client.getSomething(
  set(GetSomethingReq, {
    id: "...",
    someOption: false,
  })
);

/**
 * or you can use with `grpc`

import * as grpc from "grpc";

const client = makeModernClient(SomethingClient, {
  address: "example.com:80",
