volo-build compiles thrift and protobuf idl files into rust code at compile-time.
Example
Usually, if you are using volo-cli to generate the code, you don't need to use volo-build directly.
If you want to use volo-build directly, you can follow the following steps:
First, add volo-build to your Cargo.toml:
[]
= "*" # make sure you use a compatible version with `volo`
Second, creates a build.rs file:
Third, creates a volo.yml file in the same directory of build.rs with the following layout:
---
idls:
- source: local
path: path/to/your/idl.thrift
- source: local
path: path/to/your/protobuf/idl.proto
includes:
- path/to/your/protobuf/
- source: git
repo: git@github.com:cloudwego/volo.git
ref: main
path: path/in/repo/idl.thrift
That's it!
