Exercise: Tokenize Server Streaming RPC

Explore how to implement a tokenize server streaming RPC in gRPC. Learn to define the service and messages in a proto file, build the server-side logic to split and stream tokens, and create a client to receive streamed responses. This lesson helps you practice handling streaming responses and working with RPCs in Java.

We'll cover the following...

Tokenize text RPC

In this exercise, your goal is to implement a tokenize RPC Server Streaming API in a TextEditorService.

  • The function takes a TokenizeRequest message that contains a string and a delimiter.

  • It returns a stream of Result messages where each message represents a tokenized part of the original string.

Follow these steps:

  1. Define the RPC in a .proto file: Define the RPC in the service definition in the proto file.

  2. Implement the server code: Implement the server logic to handle the request and return the tokenized response.

  3. Test the server code by implementing the client: Ensure the client can send a string and delimiter, and the server responds with a stream of tokenized strings. ...
