This is so useful that it’s worth its own post. I write many gRPC services. As these generally run securely, it’s best to test them that way too but, even with e.g. Let’s Encrypt, it can be challenging to generate appropriate TLS certs. Tailscale makes this trivial. Assuming there’s a gRPC service running on localhost:50051, we want to avoid -plaintext: PORT="50051" grpcurl \ -plaintext 0.0.0.0:${PORT} \ list NOTE I’m using list and assuming your service has reflection enabled but you can, of course, use relevant methods.

I’ve written before about Ackal’s use of Firestore and subscribing to Firestore document CRUD events: Routing Firestore events to GKE with Eventarc Cloud Firestore Triggers in Golang using Firestore triggers I find Google’s Eventarc documentation to be confusing and, in typical Google fashion, even though open-sourced, you often need to do some legwork to find relevant sources, viz: Google’s Protobufs for Eventarc (using cloudevents) google-cloudevents1 Convenience (since you can generate these using protoc) language-specific types generated from the above e.
