python javascript ruby go php dart operating system any platform cross platform type serialization format and library idl compiler license bsd website developers google com protocol buffers protocol buffers protobuf is a free and open source cross platform data format used to serialize structured data it is useful in developing programs to communicate with each other over a network or for storing data the method involves an interface description language that describes the structure of some data and a program that generates source code from that description for generating or parsing a stream of bytes that represents the structured data contents 1 overview 2 example 3 language support 4 see also 5 references 6 external links overview edit google developed protocol buffers for internal use and provided a code generator for multiple languages under an open source license see below the design goals for protocol buffers emphasized simplicity and performance in particular it was designed to be smaller and faster than xml 3 protocol buffers are widely used at google for storing and interchanging all kinds of structured information the method serves as a basis for a custom remote procedure call rpc system that is used for nearly all inter machine communication at google 4 protocol buffers are similar to the apache thrift used by facebook evernote ion created by amazon or microsoft bond protocols offering as well a concrete rpc protocol stack to use for defined services called grpc 5 data structures called messages and services are described in a proto definition file proto and compiled with protoc this compilation generates code that can be invoked by a sender or recipient of these data structures for example example pb cc and example pb h are generated from example proto they define c classes for each message and service in example proto canonically messages are serialized into a binary wire format which is compact forward and backward compatible but not self describing that is there is no way to tell the names meaning or full datatypes of fields without an external specification there is no defined way to include or refer to such an external specification schema within a protocol buffers file the officially supported implementation includes an ascii serialization format 6 but this format though self describing loses the forward and backward compatibility behavior and according to some who is thus not a good choice for applications other than debugging though the primary purpose of protocol buffers is to facilitate network communication its simplicity and speed make protocol buffers an alternative to data centric c classes and structs especially where interoperability with other languages or systems might be needed in the future example edit a schema for a particular use of protocol buffers associates data types with field names using integers to identify each field the protocol buffer data contains only the numbers not the field names providing some bandwidth storage savings compared with systems that include the field names in the data polyline proto syntax proto2 message point required int32 x 1 required int32 y 2 optional string label 3 message line required point start 1 required point end 2 optional string label 3 message polyline repeated point point 1 optional string label 2 the point message defines two mandatory data items x and y the data item label is optional each data item has a tag the tag is defined after the equal sign for example x has the tag 1 the line and polyline messages which both use point demonstrate how composition works in protocol buffers polyline has a repeated field which behaves like a vector this schema can subsequently be compiled for use by one or more programming languages google provides a compiler called protoc which can produce output for c java or python other schema compilers are available from other sources to create language dependent output for over 20 other languages 7 for example after a c version of the protocol buffer schema above is produced a c source code file polyline cpp can use the message objects as follows polyline cpp include polyline pb h generated by calling protoc polyline proto line createnewline const std string name create a line from 10 20 to 30 40 line line new line line mutable_start set_x 10 line mutable_start set_y 20
