在 Windows 上安装 apache thrift

Question

我整天都在尝试安装 apache thrift 谁能提供一个简单说明的指南，因为我没有从文档中得到任何东西，所以我下载了我试图运行/构建/安装的 .exe 文件但是它不起作用。

Answer 1

It's really simple.

First, download the thrift standalone exe from their website. It is a pre-compiled exe and you don't need anything after downloading it. Actually ignore the second step in docs.

The way that thrift work is:

You write a thrift file in which you indicate which functions will be implemented/called and which data types will be transferred.

Then Thrift compiler can compile the thrift file to your target languages.

You use generated files in your server/client apps. The server must implement functionalities you specified and the client would call those functions.

To achieve this create a .thrift file and put it on the same directory as thrift exe file is. and after writing your functionality in .thrift file enter thrift --gen <language> <Thrift filename> in a command line(PowerShell, cmd, etc.) and you will get your language files that you can copy and use in your projects.

This is actually inspired by this video and I hope it help to start with thrift.
