is there any API to watch gpr_subprocess_* stdout/stderr?

[kang joni]

I want to watch subprocess worker data, something like either stdout or stderr, whether is supported use case now?

It's not right now: the subprocess API is just what we've found we needed to write unit tests for gRPC.

Hi Kang,

Autonomy is a given with any piece of code :)  Since gRPC code is built with quite a lot of flexibility, if you need to for your own instance, you can easily add to subprocess_posix.c the dup2/fork/pipe combo to grab the stdout/stderr and watch it.

Hope it helps,
Paul

Thanks for your suggestion. But I'm just hoping to write in portable manner (Win/Lin).

Well, for Windows using C# you might need to add the appropriate method references to grpc_csharp_ext.c and NativeMethods.cs
