io.vertx.reactivex.grpc.client

## Class GrpcClient

- java.lang.Object
- - io.vertx.reactivex.grpc.client.GrpcClient

-     public class GrpcClient
      extends Object

  A gRPC client for Vert.x Unlike traditional gRPC clients, this client does not rely on a generated RPC interface to interact with the service. Instead, you can interact with the service with a request/response interfaces and gRPC messages, very much like a traditional client. The client exposes 2 levels of API
  - a Protobuf message `#request(SocketAddress) API`: `GrpcClientRequest`/`GrpcClientResponse` with Protobuf messages to call any gRPC service in a generic way
  - a gRPC message `request(io.vertx.reactivex.core.net.SocketAddress)`: `GrpcClientRequest`/`GrpcClientRequest` with gRPC messages to call a given method of a gRPC service

  NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the `original` non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.
