monitor/monitor.proto

MonitorConfig

Tells the monitor which target to open and provides additional parameters that might be needed to configure the target or the monitor itself.

Field	Type	Label	Description
target	string
type	MonitorConfig.TargetType
additionalConfig	google.protobuf.Struct

StreamingOpenReq

The top-level message sent by the client for the StreamingOpen method. Multiple StreamingOpenReq messages can be sent but the first message must contain a monitor_config message to initialize the monitor target. All subsequent messages must contain bytes to be sent to the target and must not contain a monitor_config message.

Field	Type	Label	Description
monitorConfig	MonitorConfig		Provides information to the monitor that specifies which is the target. The first StreamingOpenReq message must contain a monitor_config message.
data	bytes		The data to be sent to the target being monitored.

StreamingOpenResp

Field	Type	Label	Description
data	bytes

MonitorConfig.TargetType

Name	Number	Description
SERIAL	0

Monitor

Service that abstract a Monitor usage

Method Name	Request Type	Response Type	Description
StreamingOpen	StreamingOpenReq stream	StreamingOpenResp stream

Scalar Value Types

.proto Type	Notes	C++	Java	Python	Go	C#	PHP	Ruby
double		double	double	float	float64	double	float	Float
float		float	float	float	float32	float	float	Float
int32	Uses variable-length encoding. Inefficient for encoding negative numbers – if your field is likely to have negative values, use sint32 instead.	int32	int	int	int32	int	integer	Bignum or Fixnum (as required)
int64	Uses variable-length encoding. Inefficient for encoding negative numbers – if your field is likely to have negative values, use sint64 instead.	int64	long	int/long	int64	long	integer/string	Bignum
uint32	Uses variable-length encoding.	uint32	int	int/long	uint32	uint	integer	Bignum or Fixnum (as required)
uint64	Uses variable-length encoding.	uint64	long	int/long	uint64	ulong	integer/string	Bignum or Fixnum (as required)
sint32	Uses variable-length encoding. Signed int value. These more efficiently encode negative numbers than regular int32s.	int32	int	int	int32	int	integer	Bignum or Fixnum (as required)
sint64	Uses variable-length encoding. Signed int value. These more efficiently encode negative numbers than regular int64s.	int64	long	int/long	int64	long	integer/string	Bignum
fixed32	Always four bytes. More efficient than uint32 if values are often greater than 2^28.	uint32	int	int	uint32	uint	integer	Bignum or Fixnum (as required)
fixed64	Always eight bytes. More efficient than uint64 if values are often greater than 2^56.	uint64	long	int/long	uint64	ulong	integer/string	Bignum
sfixed32	Always four bytes.	int32	int	int	int32	int	integer	Bignum or Fixnum (as required)
sfixed64	Always eight bytes.	int64	long	int/long	int64	long	integer/string	Bignum
bool		bool	boolean	boolean	bool	bool	boolean	TrueClass/FalseClass
string	A string must always contain UTF-8 encoded or 7-bit ASCII text.	string	String	str/unicode	string	string	string	String (UTF-8)
bytes	May contain any arbitrary sequence of bytes.	string	ByteString	str	[]byte	ByteString	string	String (ASCII-8BIT)
