Grpc Server implementation

[spiderko]

Hi all. I'm trying to introduce grpc server and client to our large project. Some of the business objects are having 200+ properties. Do I need to create proto files or do GrpcPortal have some magic which would allow me to avoid this pain?

The data portal avoids that pain. The GrpcProxy works exactly like the HttpProxy, with a single endpoint on the server for all data portal calls.

If you encounter any issues let me know, as I don't think many people have used GrpcProxy yet, and although I've done basic testing, you might find edge cases.

To be clear - if your code works today with HttpProxy, switching to GrpcProxy should require no code changes - only the configuration changes and setting up a GrpcPortal endpoint on the server.
