Overview
The Go code that supports the data types defined in the .proto files is generated withe the compiler is invoked with the go_out flag, and the Go plugin is installed.
Installation
The generic compiler must be installed with TODO.
To generate Go code, the Go plugin must be installed with:
go install google.golang.org/protobuf/cmd/protoc-gen-go@latest
This will install a protoc-gen-go binary in ${GOBIN}.
