HTTP and gRPC mapping question for grpc_gateway

[Brad Post]

Hello,

Trying to get some clarification on the HTTP to gRPC mapping as I would

like to do the following mapping when sending in resource ids:

- HTTP: PATCH /v1/keys/1234

- gRPC: patch_key(Data: UpdateKeyRequestData(UpdateKeyId: `1234`))

But seems that due to the HTTP body rules and how gRPC is mapped I can only

have the resource ID at the top level message, not replaced in a sub-message.

Am I correctly understanding this or is there a way to get the resource ID

into a sub-message.

My code is below for reference and thanks in advance for any help.

Brad

------

// Defines the UpdateKeyRequestData message

message UpdateKeyRequestData {

// The key id

string UpdateKeyId = 1;

}

message PatchKeyRequest {

// The data needed to create a Key

UpdateKeyRequestData Data = 1;

}

//

// Patch a key

rpc patch_key(PatchKeyRequest) returns (KeyResponse) {

option (google.api.http) = {

patch: "/v1/keys/{PatchKeyId}"

body: "*"

};

}
