Usage

First save the following file as example.proto

syntax = "proto3";
package example;
option java_package = "com.example";
option optimize_for = SPEED;
import "other.proto";
// example file
enum Hello {
  Hello = 0;
  Welcome = 1;
  GDay = 2;
  Yo = 3;
}
 
message Test {
  map<string, string> data = 1;
  required string hello = 2;
  oneof test {
    uint32 age = 3;
    uint32 year = 4;
  }
  message Nested {
    optional bytes thing = 1;
  }
  Nested item = 5;
  required Hello welcoming = 6;
  /** A block comment
    * Longer
    * Longer
    */
  repeated uint32 timings = 7[deprecated=true];
  repeated uint32 timings_info = 8 [packed=true];
}
service ServiceName {
  rpc MethodName (Hello) returns (Test);
}

Then, run the example:

import { readFileSync } from 'fs';
import { parse } from 'protocol-buffers-schema-ts/lib/parse';
 
// pass a buffer or string (implements Object.toString()) to schema.parse.
var sch = parse(readFileSync('example.proto'))
 
// will print out the schema as a javascript object
console.log(sch)

Running the above example will print something similar to

Schema {
  syntax: 3,
  package: 'example',
  imports: [ 'other.proto' ],
  enums:
   [ Enum { name: 'Hello', enums: [], values: [Array], allow_alias: false } ],
  messages:
   [ Message {
       name: 'Test',
       enums: [],
       extends: [],
       messages: [Array],
       fields: [Array],
       extensions: null } ],
  extends: [],
  services: [ Service { name: 'ServiceName', methods: [Array] } ],
  optimize_for: 'SPEED' }

Note that this example is included as lib/example.

Testing

Testing is currently done in an automated fashion in lib/test, relying on files in the test/fixtures/ directory.

Testing should be done both in the browser and in node, for various purposes.

Updating of properties would inherently include updating of test/fixtures.
