# protox


An implementation of the protobuf compiler in rust, intended for use as a library with crates such as [`prost-build`](https://crates.io/crates/prost-build) to avoid needing to build `protoc`.

## Examples


Compiling a single source file:

```rust
assert_eq!(protox::compile(["root.proto"], ["."]).unwrap(), FileDescriptorSet {
    file: vec![
        FileDescriptorProto {
            name: Some("root.proto".to_owned()),
            /* ... */
        }
    ],
});
```

Usage with `prost-build`:

```rust
let file_descriptors = protox::compile(["root.proto"], ["."]).unwrap();
prost_build::compile_fds(file_descriptors).unwrap();
```

Usage with `tonic-build`:

```rust
let file_descriptors = protox::compile(["root.proto"], ["."]).unwrap();

let file_descriptor_path = PathBuf::from(env::var_os("OUT_DIR").expect("OUT_DIR not set"))
    .join("file_descriptor_set.bin");
fs::write(&file_descriptor_path, file_descriptors.encode_to_vec()).unwrap();

tonic_build::Config::new()
    .file_descriptor_set_path(&file_descriptor_path)
    .skip_protoc_run()
    .compile_protos(["root.proto"], ["."])
    .unwrap();
```

### Error messages


This crate uses [`miette`](https://crates.io/crates/miette) to add additional details to errors. For nice error messages, add `miette` as a dependency with the `fancy` feature enabled and return a [`miette::Result`](https://docs.rs/miette/latest/miette/type.Result.html) from your build script.

```rust
fn main() -> miette::Result<()> {
  let _ = protox::compile(["root.proto"], ["."])?;

  Ok(())
}
```

Example error message:

```
Error:
  × name 'Bar' is not defined
   ╭─[root.proto:3:1]
 3 │ message Foo {
 4 │     Bar bar = 1;
   ·     ─┬─
   ·      ╰── found here
 5 │ }
   ╰────
```
