#If you are in a hurry

For language-specific installation instructions for gRPC runtime, please refer to these documents

  • C++: Currently to install gRPC for C++, you need to build from source as described below.
  • C#: NuGet package Grpc
  • Go: go get google.golang.org/grpc
  • Java
  • Node: npm install grpc
  • Objective-C
  • PHP: pecl install grpc-beta
  • Python: pip install grpcio
  • Ruby: gem install grpc

#Pre-requisites

##Linux

 $ [sudo] apt-get install build-essential autoconf libtool

##Mac OSX

For a Mac system, git is not available by default. You will first need to install Xcode from the Mac AppStore and then run the following command from a terminal:

 $ [sudo] xcode-select --install

##Protoc

By default gRPC uses protocol buffers, you will need the protoc compiler to generate stub server and client code.

If you compile gRPC from source, as described below, the Makefile will automatically try and compile the protoc in third_party if you cloned the repository recursively and it detects that you don't already have it installed.

#Build from Source

For developers who are interested to contribute, here is how to compile the gRPC C Core library.

 $ git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc.git
 $ cd grpc
 $ git submodule update --init
 $ make
 $ [sudo] make install
