如何在C#中使用Google.Protobuf工具

时间:2024-03-06 07:48:01
  protobuf是一个语言无关、平台无关的序列化协议,由谷歌开源提供。再加上其高性能、存储占用更小等特点,在云原生的应用中越来越广泛。
在C#中主要有两种方法来使用protobuf协议,nuget包分别为Google.Protobuf和protobuf-net,其中Google.Protobuf由谷歌官方提供。本文简要记录和展示Google.Protobuf的使用方法和特点。

项目资料及文档

  • 项目官网:https://developers.google.cn/protocol-buffers?hl=zh-cn
  • github主页:https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/
  • 官方文档:https://developers.google.cn/protocol-buffers/docs/overview?hl=zh-cn
  • 该nuget包支持.NETFramework 4.5、.NETStandard1.1、.net5等

准备工作

  需要用到的nuget有如下两个:Google.Protobuf、Google.Protobuf.Tools,其中Google.Protobuf是主类库,运行时要用到。Google.Protobuf.Tools提供了命令行工具,用于根据.proto文件转为目标语言的类型,仅开发时使用,运行时不需要。
  本次Demo使用的.proto文件内容如下:
syntax = "proto3";
option cc_enable_arenas = true;

package Tccc.Demo.Protobuf;

message ErrorLog {
    string LogID = 1;
    string Context = 2;
    string Stack = 3;
}
  首先需要根据.proto文件生成目标类型,操作如下:
./google.protobuf.tools\3.19.1\tools\windows_x64\protoc.exe --csharp_out=./generatedCode ./proto/ErrorLog.proto

  其中--csharp_out选项是生成C#语言的目标类型,运行protoc.exe -h 查看帮助信息,可以看到还支持一下几种选项: 

--proto_path=PATH
--cpp_out=OUT_DIR Generate C++ header and source.
--csharp_out=OUT_DIR Generate C# source file.
--java_out=OUT_DIR Generate Java source file.
--js_out=OUT_DIR Generate JavaScript source.
--kotlin_out=OUT_DIR Generate Kotlin file.
--objc_out=OUT_DIR Generate Objective-C header and source.
--php_out=OUT_DIR Generate PHP source file.
--python_out=OUT_DIR Generate Python source file.
--ruby_out=OUT_DIR Generate Ruby source file.
  运行上述命令,会根据指定的ErrorLog.proto文件生成ErrorLog.cs文件,文件中就是C#类型ErrorLog。生成的代码中会给此类型增加方法void WriteTo(CodedOutputStream output)和只读属性Parser,接下来进行序列化和反序列化的关键。

序列化操作

        public static byte[] Serialize(ErrorLog log)
        {
            using (MemoryStream output = new MemoryStream())
            {
                log.WriteTo(output);
                return output.ToArray();
            }
        }

反序列化操作

            ErrorLog desErrorLog= ErrorLog.Parser.ParseFrom(data);

 

使用特点和理解

  • protoc.exe是支持生成多语言类型,这对于跨语言的混合编程比较方便。
  • 根据上述使用步骤可以看到,必须先使用工具protoc生成目标类型,才能调用序列化和反序列化方法,这有些不符合.net平台的编码习惯。
  • 一堆自动生成的C#类在可维护性方面欠佳,当需要调整属性字段时,还要通过工具重新生成,较为麻烦。
