Sift Protobuf Installation for Go

Before proceeding with installation, you will need to ensure that you have the buf CLI installed.

If $ which buf generates a path to the executable, you may proceed to the installation steps.

To install Sift protobufs in your project:

  1. Clone this repository onto your local machine and cd into it:
$ git clone https://github.com/sift-stack/sift
$ cd sift
  1. Assuming the path to the root of your Go project is $PROJECT_DIR, run the following command in the sift directory that you just cloned:
$ buf export protos --output=$PROJECT_DIR/protos --config protos/buf.yaml

The Sift protos can and its imports can now be found in your $PROJECT_DIR/protos directory.

  1. Copy the buf template for Go to your project directory:
$ cp buf_templates/buf.gen.go.yaml $PROJECT_DIR/buf.gen.yaml

  1. cd into your Go project at $PROJECT_DIR.

  2. Once inside of your Go project, you'll need to modify the managed.enabled.go_package_prefix.default value of your buf.gen.yaml file to have the package prefix named after your Go module. If our Go module's name, for example, is github.com/example_project, then change the buf.gen.yaml to github.com/example_project/gen/protos/go. Your buf.gen.yaml should now look like the following:

version: v1
managed:
  enabled: true
  go_package_prefix:
    default: "github.com/example_project/gen/protos/go"
plugins:
  - plugin: buf.build/protocolbuffers/go:v1.28.1
    out: gen/protos/go
    opt: paths=source_relative
  - plugin: go-vtproto
    out: gen/protos/go
    opt: paths=source_relative
  - plugin: buf.build/grpc-ecosystem/gateway:v2.16.2
    out: gen/protos/go
    opt: paths=source_relative

Refer to your go.mod file for the name of your Go module.

  1. Inside of the root of your project directory you may now compile your protobufs:
$ buf generate protos

Your project up to this point should look like the following (full depth not shown):

 example_project
 ├─ buf.gen.yaml
 ├─ gen
 │  └─ protos
 │     └─ go
 ├─ go.sum
 ├─ go.mod
 └─ protos
    ├─ protoc-gen-openapiv2
    │  └─ options
    ├─ google
    │  └─ api
    └─ sift
       ├─ runs
       ├─ notifications
       ├─ annotations
       ├─ users
       ├─ common
       ├─ assets
       ├─ tags
       └─ annotation_logs
  1. Install any dependencies you might be missing that the generated code requires:
$ go get -d ./...
  1. Now your project should be ready to use the generated Go code to interact with Sift's gRPC API. Please refer to the example code for usage.
