Description
The official protoc
compiler and several plugins support a --version
flag:
% protoc --version
libprotoc 3.19.4
% protoc-gen-go --version
protoc-gen-go v1.27.1
% protoc-gen-go-grpc --version
protoc-gen-go-grpc 1.2.0
However, no such flag is recognized by:
% protoc-gen-grpc-web --version
protoc-gen-grpc-web: Unknown option: --version
Such a flag would be useful for reproducible builds between developers. Similarly, the source code files generated by protoc-gen-grpc-web
does not include any version information to identify the version used to generate said files. Such version information is included in source files generated by other plugins, e.g.:
// Code generated by protoc-gen-go. DO NOT EDIT.
// versions:
// protoc-gen-go v1.27.1
// protoc v3.19.4
// source: ag/ag.proto
// Code generated by protoc-gen-go-grpc. DO NOT EDIT.
// versions:
// - protoc-gen-go-grpc v1.2.0
// - protoc v3.19.4
// source: ag/ag.proto
I propose to add such version information to generated code files along with support for a corresponding --version
flag to the protoc-gen-grpc-web
plugin.
