The protoc-gen-go-crud plugin depends on types generated by the protoc-gen-go plugin.

Ensure the protoc-gen-go-crud binary is in your path. As with all protoc plugins the go-crud suffix is the prefix for arguments passed to protoc, i.e. protoc --go-crud_out=path/to/out path/to/file.proto. The protoc-gen-go-crud plugin generates an implementation agnostic source file suffixed .pb.crud.go and an implementation specific source file suffixed .pb.crud.<implementation.go for each implementation.

Example proto files can be found in the test-cases directory.

Items with a check mark have been implemented Items without a check mark have not been implemented but are planned for implementation.
