Crate dlprotoc 

Downloads protoc binaries for use in Cargo build scripts.

This crate is intended to be used in Cargo build scripts (build.rs) with prost-build or tonic-build, so you don’t need protoc installed to build projects that use Protocol Buffers.

Usage

Add the dlprotoc crate to build-dependencies in Cargo.toml:

[build-dependencies]
dlprotoc = "0"

In build.rs, call download_protoc before calling compile_protos:

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    dlprotoc::download_protoc()?;
    prost_build::compile_protos(&["src/example.proto"], &["src/"])?;
    Ok(())
}

Structs

Error

The Error type returned by the dlprotoc crate.

Functions

download_protoc

Downloads protoc to the OUT_DIR environment variable and sets the PROTOC environment variable so prost-build or tonic-build can find it.

download_unverified

Downloads protoc without verifying the hash. This should only be used by the dlprotoc crate, and by the protochashes tool.

protoc_hash

Hashes data using the algorithm used to verify protoc binaries (currently SHA-256). This should only be used by the protochashes tool.
