Google Protobuf and Node JS support

[Shailesh Kulkarni]

Hi,

I have following requirement.

1. Server is in the CPP Created from Google Protobuf def.

2. Client Application is in Node JS.

3. Server and client applications communicate over websocket.

For Client application we are using https://www.npmjs.com/package/protobufjs

For some simple messages, the encoded messages in Node JS ProtobufJS are same as that one generated from Cpp server (Protobuf).

However I can see that for the nested messages there is a problem.

Do we have node JS support for the Google Protobuf with interoperability with other languages such as c++,Java,Python supported as client libraries of Google Protobuf?

If yes then please share the details. If no then please confirm and let me know.

Regards,

Shailesh

We do have a implementation working for node: https://github.com/google/protobuf/tree/master/js

However, this implementation is assumed to work with closure compiler.

Without the closure compiler, our implementation is expected to be 6~7X slower than protobufjs. (Especially for string)
