grpcui is a command-line tool that lets you interact with gRPC servers via a
browser. It's like Postman, but for gRPC APIs instead of REST.
In some ways, this is like an extension to grpcurl. Whereas grpcurl is a
command-line interface, grpcui provides a web/browser-based GUI. This lets you
interactively construct requests to send to a gRPC server.
With this tool you can also browse the schema for gRPC services, which is
presented as a list of available endpoints. This is enabled either by querying a
server that supports server reflection, by reading proto source files, or by
loading in compiled "protoset" files (files that contain encoded file descriptor
protos). In fact, the way the tool transforms JSON request data into a binary
encoded protobuf is using that very same schema. So, if the server you interact
with does not support reflection, you will either need the proto source files
that define the service or need protoset files that grpcui can use.
