Answer from AI

In gRPC, there are four main types of calls (RPC):

  1. Unary RPC — the client sends a single request and receives a single response.
  2. Server Streaming RPC — the client sends a single request, and the server returns a stream of responses.
  3. Client Streaming RPC — the client sends a stream of requests, and the server returns a single response.
  4. Bidirectional Streaming RPC — both the client and server exchange streams of messages simultaneously.

Example of a unary call in Go:

resp, err := client.SomeMethod(ctx, &pb.Request{Data: "example"})
if err != nil {
    log.Fatalf("Error calling SomeMethod: %v", err)
}
fmt.Println("Response:", resp.Result)
