ProtoBuf.js protoify example

This example shows the general usage of ProtoBuf.js by converting JSON structures to protocol buffers and vice versa using a definition describing JSON itself. While this works as an example, it does not provide any real world benefits (well, this is if you are not building a protobuf-backed database for JSON data, using inter-field substitution to minimize redundancy - nevermind, forget that).

Instructions

1. Set up dependencies: npm install
2. Run: npm test

Now you know no more and no less than that it works and you might want to inspect the following files to get the 'how':

• index.js contains the sample's source code

• json.proto contains the protobuf definition used

• json.json contains the protobuf definition converted through proto2js json.proto > json.json

• json.js contains the protobuf definition converted through proto2js json.proto -commonjs=js > json.js

• test.js contains our simple test suite
