+# OpenNLP gRPC - Proof of Concept
+
+This project demonstrates a proof of concept for creating a backend powered by
Apache OpenNLP using gRPC. It comprises
+three main modules:
+
+- **opennlp-grpc-api**
+- **opennlp-grpc-service**
+- **examples**
+
+## Modules Overview
+
+1. **opennlp-grpc-api**:
+ - Contains the gRPC schema for OpenNLP services.
+ - Includes generated Java stubs.
+ - Provides a README with instructions on generating code stubs for various
languages and auto-generated
+ documentation.
+
+2. **opennlp-grpc-service**:
+ - Features a server implementation.
+ - Offers an initial service implementation for POS tagging.
+
+3. **examples**:
+ - Provides a sample implementation for interacting with the OpenNLP server
backend via gRPC in Python.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Follow these steps to set up and run the OpenNLP gRPC proof of concept project:
+
+### Prerequisites
+Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed on your system:
+
+- Java Development Kit (JDK) 17 or later
+- Apache Maven (for building Java components)
+- Docker for running the gRPC tools if modifications to the .proto files are
needed
+
+You can build the project by running
+
+```
+mvn clean install
+```
+
+### Running the gRPC Backend
+
+Start the Server: Use the following command to run the server with default
settings:
+
+```bash
+java -jar target/opennlp-grpc-server-2.5.2-SNAPSHOT.jar
+```
+
+Configure Server Options:
+
+The server supports several command-line options for customization:
+
+```bash
+-p or --port: Port on which the server will listen (default: 7071).
+-h or --hostname: Hostname to report (default: localhost).
Review Comment:
Actually, this isn't used (and is a leftover). Will drop.

> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Richard Zowalla
> Assignee: Richard Zowalla
> Priority: Major
>
> Taken from the slack discussion. Goal is to broaden the application of
> OpenNLP and usage in different programming language.
> To do so, we can build a component based on gRPC as a module into opennlp
> itself and implement the server side component for the most common tasks (can
> be a growing thing, if community is going to like it) in Java using
> [gRPC|https://grpc.io/] - with the gRPC spec for OpenNLP in place, we can
> simply generate appropriate clients for every supported language (Python, Go,
> etc.) - that would make it easier to maintain since we can just tell the
> people how to generate the client based on the gRPC spec.
