grpc.WithInsecure is deprecated: use insecure.NewCredentials() instead

Time:12-27

Hey I'm trying make a small test client with Go and Grpc,

opts := grpc.WithInsecure()
    cc, err := grpc.Dial("localhost:9950", opts)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }

The WithInsecure() function call gives a warning:

grpc.WithInsecure is deprecated: use insecure.NewCredentials() instead.

I'm not sure how to use this new function call is there an example somewhere? Thanks

CodePudding user response:

The function insecure.NewCredentials() returns an implementation of credentials.TransportCredentials.

You can use it as a DialOption with grpc.WithTransportCredentials:

grpc.Dial(":9950", grpc.WithTransportCredentials(insecure.NewCredentials()))

However the API is marked experimental, so even if they already added the deprecation warning, you don't have to switch right away.
