# GRPC Server
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The grpc server is a [micro.Server](https://godoc.org/github.com/micro/go-micro/server#Server) compatible server.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Overview
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The server makes use of the [google.golang.org/grpc](google.golang.org/grpc) framework for the underlying server 
 | 
						|
but continues to use micro handler signatures and protoc-gen-micro generated code.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Usage
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Specify the server to your micro service
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```go
 | 
						|
import (
 | 
						|
        "github.com/micro/go-micro"
 | 
						|
        "github.com/micro/go-plugins/server/grpc"
 | 
						|
)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
func main() {
 | 
						|
        service := micro.NewService(
 | 
						|
                // This needs to be first as it replaces the underlying server
 | 
						|
                // which causes any configuration set before it
 | 
						|
                // to be discarded
 | 
						|
                micro.Server(grpc.NewServer()),
 | 
						|
                micro.Name("greeter"),
 | 
						|
        )
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
**NOTE**: Setting the gRPC server and/or client causes the underlying the server/client to be replaced which causes any previous configuration set on that server/client to be discarded. It is therefore recommended to set gRPC server/client before any other configuration |
