•  object Thrift extends Client[ThriftClientRequest, Array[Byte]] with Server[Array[Byte], Array[Byte]]

  Client and server for Apache Thrift.

  Client and server for Apache Thrift. Thrift implements Thrift framed transport and binary protocol by default, though custom protocol factories (i.e. wire encoding) may be injected with withProtocolFactory. The client, Client[ThriftClientRequest, Array[Byte]] provides direct access to the thrift transport, but we recommend using code generation through either Scrooge or a fork of the Apache generator. A rich API is provided to support interfaces generated with either of these code generators.

  The client and server uses the standard thrift protocols, with support for both framed and buffered transports. Finagle attempts to upgrade the protocol in order to ship an extra envelope carrying additional request metadata, containing, among other things, request IDs for Finagle's RPC tracing facilities.

  The negotiation is simple: on connection establishment, an improbably-named method is dispatched on the server. If that method isn't found, we are dealing with a legacy thrift server, and the standard protocol is used. If the remote server is also a finagle server (or any other supporting this extension), we reply to the request, and every subsequent request is dispatched with an envelope carrying trace metadata. The envelope itself is also a Thrift struct described here.

  Clients

  Clients can be created directly from an interface generated from a Thrift IDL:

  For example, this IDL:

  service TestService {
    string query(1: string x)
  }

  compiled with Scrooge, generates the interface TestService.FutureIface. This is then passed into Thrift.Client.newIface:

  Thrift.client.newIface[TestService.FutureIface](
    addr, classOf[TestService.FutureIface])

  However note that the Scala compiler can insert the latter Class for us, for which another variant of newIface is provided:

  Thrift.client.newIface[TestService.FutureIface](addr)

  In Java, we need to provide the class object:

  TestService.FutureIface client =
    Thrift.client.newIface(addr, TestService.FutureIface.class);

  The client uses the standard thrift protocols, with support for both framed and buffered transports. Finagle attempts to upgrade the protocol in order to ship an extra envelope carrying trace IDs and client IDs associated with the request. These are used by Finagle's tracing facilities and may be collected via aggregators like Zipkin.

  The negotiation is simple: on connection establishment, an improbably-named method is dispatched on the server. If that method isn't found, we are dealing with a legacy thrift server, and the standard protocol is used.

  Servers

  TestService.FutureIface must be implemented and passed into serveIface:

  // An echo service
  ThriftMux.server.serveIface(":*", new TestService.FutureIface {
    def query(x: String): Future[String] = Future.value(x)
  })
