* Package name : buf Version : 0.33.0-1 Upstream Author : Buf Technologies, Inc. * URL : https://github.com/bufbuild/buf * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: Go Description : Better way to work with Protocol Buffers Buf’s long-term goal is to enable schema-driven development: a future where APIs are defined consistently, in a way that service owners and clients can depend on. . Defining APIs using an IDL (Interface Description Language) provides a number of benefits over simply exposing JSON/REST services, and today, Protobuf is the most stable, widely-adopted IDL in the industry. . However, as it stands, using Protobuf is much more difficult than using JSON as your data transfer format. . Enter Buf: We’re building tooling to make Protobuf reliable and easy to use for service owners and clients, while keeping it the obvious choice on the technical merits. ---- This is needed to build latest version of nomad (https://www.nomadproject.io).
