micro_out: protoc-gen-micro: Plugin failed

I am trying out go-micro and I have issues genearating .micro boilerplate code. I have set my env and even passed the direct directory of my GOPATH but got error

/Users/Olar/home/golib/bin/protoc-gen-micro: program not found or is not executable Please specify a program using absolute path or make sure the program is available in your PATH system variable --micro_out: protoc-gen-micro: Plugin failed with status code 1.

the command I run

protoc --plugin=protoc-gen-go=/Users/Olar/home/golib/bin/protoc-gen-go --plugin=protoc-gen-micro=/Users/Olar/home/golib/bin/protoc-gen-micro --proto_path=/Users/Olar/home/golib/src:. --go_out=. --micro_out=. greeter.proto

on removal of --micro_out=., greeter.pb.go file is generated but the .micro is not generated. How can I fix this

Solution

  • You must have protoc and the plugin (protoc-gen-micro) installed.

    I think you omitted the second step.

    See:

    https://github.com/micro/protoc-gen-micro

    And perhaps:

    go get github.com/micro/protoc-gen-micro

    And then:

    which protoc-gen-micro
