At DConf 2018,there was a talk by ?? about blockchain and gRPC library for D came up.

In summary, grpc a universal rpc framework by Google and can be implemented in any language. It enables you to call methods on a remote server from a client as if they're both on the same host. Its use http/http2 as its protocol and protobuffer as the schema for api definition.


Its quite an interesting subject in large scale enterprise development and microservices. gRPC is now a good reason to use Go or Java for development...at least for distributed services...including blockchain. Its actually very powerful.

There's a protobuffer implementation at code.dlang.org

What remains is a D grpc implementation or bindings using the c++ or c version.

You may read more about it at https://grpc.io. Huge potential.
