Instantiate a GRPC Client

A Client Invocation

The generated typed client contains a cc reference to google.golang.org/grpc ClientConn instance, which implements ClientConnInterface.

When a typed invocation is made, cc is invoked as such:

cc.Invoke(ctx, "/blue.service.quota.v1.QuotaService/SomeMethod", in, out, opts)

Error Handling

https://grpc.io/docs/guides/error/

https://cloud.google.com/apis/design/errors#error_model

https://grpc.io/docs/guides/status-codes/

Use https://pkg.go.dev/google.golang.org/grpc/internal/status

gRPC service handlers should return error created by the status package, and gRPC clients should expect a corresponding error to be returned from the RPC call.

status.Errorf(codes.InvalidArgument, "request missing required field: Name")

Converting a general error to a known status, if possible:

status.FromError()
