/**
 * A refinement of StreamObserver provided by the GRPC runtime to the application (the client or
 * the server) that allows for more complex interactions with call behavior.
 *
 * 

In any call there are logically four {@link StreamObserver} implementations: *

    *
  • 'inbound', client-side - which the GRPC runtime calls when it receives messages from * the server. This is implemented by the client application and passed into a service method * on a stub object. *
  • *
  • 'outbound', client-side - which the GRPC runtime provides to the client application and the * client uses this {@code StreamObserver} to send messages to the server. *
  • *
  • 'inbound', server-side - which the GRPC runtime calls when it receives messages from * the client. This is implemented by the server application and returned from service * implementations of client-side streaming and bidirectional streaming methods. *
  • *
  • 'outbound', server-side - which the GRPC runtime provides to the server application and * the server uses this {@code StreamObserver} to send messages (responses) to the client. *
  • *
* *

Implementations of this class represent the 'outbound' message streams. The client-side * one is {@link ClientCallStreamObserver} and the service-side one is * {@link ServerCallStreamObserver}. * *

Like {@code StreamObserver}, implementations are not required to be thread-safe; if multiple * threads will be writing to an instance concurrently, the application must synchronize its calls. * *

DO NOT MOCK: The API is too complex to reliably mock. Use InProcessChannelBuilder to create * "real" RPCs suitable for testing. * * @param type of outbound message. */ @ExperimentalApi("https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/8499") public abstract class CallStreamObserver implements StreamObserver { /** * If {@code true}, indicates that the observer is capable of sending additional messages * without requiring excessive buffering internally. This value is just a suggestion and the * application is free to ignore it, however doing so may result in excessive buffering within the * observer. * *

If {@code false}, the runnable passed to {@link #setOnReadyHandler} will be called after * {@code isReady()} transitions to {@code true}. */ public abstract boolean isReady(); /** * Set a {@link Runnable} that will be executed every time the stream {@link #isReady()} state * changes from {@code false} to {@code true}. While it is not guaranteed that the same * thread will always be used to execute the {@link Runnable}, it is guaranteed that executions * are serialized with calls to the 'inbound' {@link StreamObserver}. * *

On client-side this method may only be called during {@link * ClientResponseObserver#beforeStart}. On server-side it may only be called during the initial * call to the application, before the service returns its {@code StreamObserver}. * *

Because there is a processing delay to deliver this notification, it is possible for * concurrent writes to cause {@code isReady() == false} within this callback. Handle "spurious" * notifications by checking {@code isReady()}'s current value instead of assuming it is now * {@code true}. If {@code isReady() == false} the normal expectations apply, so there would be * another {@code onReadyHandler} callback. * * @param onReadyHandler to call when peer is ready to receive more messages. */ public abstract void setOnReadyHandler(Runnable onReadyHandler); /** * Disables automatic flow control where a token is returned to the peer after a call * to the 'inbound' {@link io.grpc.stub.StreamObserver#onNext(Object)} has completed. If disabled * an application must make explicit calls to {@link #request} to receive messages. * *

On client-side this method may only be called during {@link * ClientResponseObserver#beforeStart}. On server-side it may only be called during the initial * call to the application, before the service returns its {@code StreamObserver}. * *

Note that for cases where the runtime knows that only one inbound message is allowed * calling this method will have no effect and the runtime will always permit one and only * one message. This is true for: *

    *
  • {@link io.grpc.MethodDescriptor.MethodType#UNARY} operations on both the * client and server. *
  • *
  • {@link io.grpc.MethodDescriptor.MethodType#CLIENT_STREAMING} operations on the client. *
  • *
  • {@link io.grpc.MethodDescriptor.MethodType#SERVER_STREAMING} operations on the server. *
  • *
*

* *

This API is being replaced, but is not yet deprecated. On server-side it being replaced * with {@link ServerCallStreamObserver#disableAutoRequest}. On client-side {@link * ClientCallStreamObserver#disableAutoRequestWithInitial disableAutoRequestWithInitial(1)}. */ public abstract void disableAutoInboundFlowControl(); /** * Requests the peer to produce {@code count} more messages to be delivered to the 'inbound' * {@link StreamObserver}. * *

This method is safe to call from multiple threads without external synchronization. * * @param count more messages */ public abstract void request(int count); /** * Sets message compression for subsequent calls to {@link #onNext}. * * @param enable whether to enable compression. */ public abstract void setMessageCompression(boolean enable); }
