git clone --recursive https://github.com/thinkcn/proto2json
sh autogen.sh
cd build 
#cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=./out ..
cmake ..
make
make install

# build x86_64
cmake -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=x86_64 ..
make
cp proto2json proto2json_x84

# build arm64
cmake -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=arm64 ..
make
cp proto2json proto2json_arm

# make universal binary
lipo -create -output proto2json proto2json_x84 proto2json_arm

Usage

# generate swagger api
proto2json -p ./json -e api ../tests/UserInfo.proto
# generate json
proto2json -p ./json -e json ../tests/UserInfo.proto

# custom gcc --> CMakeLists.txt
SET(CMAKE_C_COMPILER "/usr/local/bin/gcc")
SET(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER "/usr/local/bin/c++") 

# custom gcc --> path
export CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc
export CXX=/usr/local/bin/g++

Example

1. tests/User.proto

syntax = "proto3";

package app.center;

message User {
    int32  id        = 1; // ID
    string nick      = 2; // nick name
    stirng name      = 3; // name
    string avatarUrl = 4; // url of avatar 
}

2. in the path build execute

./proto2json -p out ../tests/User.proto

3. build/out/app.center.User.json is the resault

{
    "fields" : 
    [
        {
            "comment" : "// ID",
            "isRepeated" : false,
            "name" : "id",
            "number" : "1",
            "type" : "int32"
        },
        {
            "comment" : "// nick name",
            "isRepeated" : false,
            "name" : "nick",
            "number" : "2",
            "type" : "string"
        },
        {
            "comment" : "// name",
            "isRepeated" : false,
            "name" : "name",
            "number" : "3",
            "type" : "stirng"
        },
        {
            "comment" : "// url of avatar ",
            "isRepeated" : false,
            "name" : "avatarUrl",
            "number" : "4",
            "type" : "string"
        }
    ],
    "name" : "User"
}
