Start a grpc server on a remote machine

[m...@zenprospect.com]

I read from the tutorial that "server.start() does not block you may need to sleep-loop if there is nothing else for your code to do while serving." Is the recommended approach to include the following code after server.start()?

  try:

    while True:

      time.sleep(60*60*24)

  except KeyboardInterrupt:

    server.stop(0)

If I'm setting up a grpc service on a remote machine, I can ssh into the machine and run command like "python3 server.py" to start the server. How can I keep the service running if I want to exit ssh from my local machine?

You can use the nohup command:

nohup python3 server.py &

Thanks Mark! I ended up setting up uWSGI and Enginx.

Hi, M. from zenpropect,

I am looking for a solution to serve gRPC using uWSGI and Nginx.

Would you mind to give an overview of how you did it?

Thanks in advance.
