What is thrift?

Thrift是一种接口描述语言和二进制通讯协议，[1]它被用来定义和创建跨语言的服务。[2]它被当作一个远程过程调用（RPC）框架来使用，是由Facebook为“大规模跨语言服务开发”而开发的。它通过一个代码生成引擎联合了一个软件栈，来创建不同程度的、无缝的跨平台高效服务，可以使用C#、C++（基于POSIX兼容系统）、Cappuccino、Cocoa、Delphi、Erlang、Go、Haskell、Java、Node.js、OCaml、Perl、PHP、Python、Ruby和Smalltalk。[wiki链接](https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrift)

Dependency conditions

thrift核心代码使用C++写的，用了boost库。执行以下命令，安装相关依赖:

    yum install automake libtool flex bison pkgconfig gcc-c++ boost-devel libevent-devel zlib-devel python-devel ruby-devel

Thrift Installation

1. http://thrift.apache.org/download here to download is thrift-0.9.3.tar.gz
2. Select the appropriate language support as required when you do the following:

#tar -zxvf thrift-0.9.3.tar.gz #cd thrift-0.9.3#./configure --with-boost=/usr/local  --without-java --without-php#make; make install 

1. In terminal input: Thrift–version to see if the installation was successful.

Thrift use

1. Define a thrift file, Phone.thrift, with the following content:

enum PhoneType { HOME, WORK, MOBILE, OTHER}struct12string3type}

1. Using the thrift command line, generate Java, Golang code

    thrift-r--gencppphone.thrift    thrift-r--gengophone.thrift

1. Perform the following actions in the Gen-cpp directory

cp PhoneService_server.skeleton.cpp  PhoneService_server.cpp

1. Modify the Get function in Phoneservice_server.cpp

  _returnconst std::string& uid) {    // Your implementation goes here    _return1024;    _return"13424562789";     _return.type = PhoneType::MOBILE;    printf("get\n");  }

1. Writing makefile Files

= /usr/include/boost/= /usr/local= /usr/local= phone_types.cpp phone_constants.cpp PhoneService.cpp  PhoneService_server.cppserver: ${SRC}        g++-g-o-I-I-lthrift  

Run make, generate the Phoneserver executable, run the Phoneserver

./PhoneServer

1. Preparing the Golang Client

#cd gen-go#mkdir src#mv phone src/phone#mv src/phone/phone_service-remote  src/phone_service-remote

Modify the/etc/profile file to increase the Golang project path

GOPATH=/usr/local/gopath:/home/denny/thrift-test/gen-go

Make environment variables effective

source /etc/profile

Compiling phone_service-remote

go build phone_service-remote

Run Phone_service-remote

./phone_service-remote

Output:

Phone({ID:1024 Number:13424562789 Type:MOBILE}) <nil>

This is the end of thrift's simple application.

Summarize

The study of thrift is not much, it is now felt that thrift is suitable for multi-language mixed programming, and the interaction between the system or the system depends on the RPC this time the usefulness should be quite large.
