I am designing a client for eventstore. So I need to know the protocols, it will be helpful if anyone can provide the docummentations for the same.
Hi,
The foundation of the existing protocol is checked into the repository - it is protocol buffers length prefixed over a TCP stream. However, on the grpc branch is a replacement protocol which will ship alongside the existing one (as a new default) in Event Store version 6. This supports most features now, and will have parity before release.
I’d strongly recommend not designing a client for the current protocol, and using the GRPC protocol instead.
We also intend on shipping first-party clients for .NET, Java, Node.js and Go as part of Event Store version 6, with others following based on demand.
What platform are you developing a client for?
Thanks,
James
Hi,
Thanks for the info. Could you provide the link for the ‘grpc’ branch? I could not find it here: https://github.com/EventStore/EventStore/branches/active.
I am trying to build a functional Scala client, inspired by this effort for Postgres: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJrgj1vQeAI&feature=youtu.be.
