Hi, As long as you schema doesn't change, or change in a compatible way you should not change a version. Protobuf is build for evolution. If you need to make braking changes you should create a new version. A good guideline for how to version is looking at the Google API Design Guidelines:
https://cloud.google.com/apis/design/versioning It has a specific section about versioning. You have also various tools to guard against braking changes, this can be build into your CI/CD pipeline: Prototools: https://github.com/uber/prototool Protolock: https://github.com/nilslice/protolock I'm going to inject a shameless plug for the tool that we are building, a schema registry for protobuf/grpc. We're hard at work to get it production ready, but I think it's better to look at the above tools first: https://github.com/anemos-io/metastore Also note that versioning your contracts should be decoupled from the versioning of your microservice. I hope this helps. _/ _/ Alex Van Boxel On Fri, Jun 28, 2019 at 12:03 PM 'anand' via Protocol Buffers < protobuf@googlegroups.com> wrote: > Team, > > How can i achieve the versioning in protocol buffer , I have one use cases > where if the version of the microservice change how version of the > protobuff can be managed > > Regards > Anand > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Protocol Buffers" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to protobuf+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to protobuf@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/group/protobuf. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/protobuf/e6f89f11-0ed8-4867-863a-4b54a72550b0%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/protobuf/e6f89f11-0ed8-4867-863a-4b54a72550b0%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
