gRPC to GraphQL Adapter

• adapts a gRPC API and provides the methods as a GraphQL API
• you have to provide a proto file inside the docker container which describes the service to adapt (default full name of the proto file is /api/main.proto)
• the adapter provides an API description at http://<host>/graphql/api/html (HTML version) and http://<host>/graphql/api/md (Markdown verion)
• build docker container with docker build -t <containerName> <pathToDockerfile>
• run docker container with docker run -p 40022:40022 <containerName>
• to connect to a running gRPC server, you have to set at least the environment variables API_HOST and API_PORT in the Dockerfile (IP and port of the host running the gRPC service)

The container image can be pulled from dockerhub with docker pull wilhelmstephan/grpc-to-graphql-adapter.

Questions about use cases

Stumbled across this repo while researching GRPC vs. GraphQL. Really cool project! I was wondering what specific use cases motivated you to start this project? Did you have a GRPC service that you want to allow browser based clients to access?
