How to configure a gRPC server using Tyk
Blog post from Tyk
The guide by Jennifer Craig explains how to configure a gRPC server using Tyk, an API management platform, to enhance API requests with custom logic. Tyk aims to provide extensive API management tools with minimal complexity, suitable for common use cases and adaptable for unique business logic through plugins. It supports transformations using Go templates and the sprig library, allowing data manipulation and integration with machine learning libraries like NumPy and TensorFlow. The guide focuses on configuring a gRPC server, using Python as an example, and details the process for both Tyk Open Source and Tyk Pro installations. It illustrates how Tyk can act as a gRPC client, enabling users to attach a debugger for live debugging and manipulate data in the request middleware chain. The guide emphasizes the flexibility of Tyk in accommodating custom logic at various stages of API processing and encourages further exploration of its extensibility through community forums and contributions on GitHub.
