how to convert thrift TCompactProtocol to TBinaryProtocolTransport

I have a api made based on thrift TCompactProtocol.

Is there a quick way to convert it into TBinaryProtocolTransport? Is there a tool for conversion?

FYI. My api is Line Api bases api Python.

Solution

  • There is no tool needed. Since yyou did not elaborate on your actual use case too much, I can only give a generic answer.

    You control both RPC server & client + we do NOT talk about stored data

    In that case you need only to replace the transports on both ends and you're pretty much done.

    All other cases

    You will need two pieces

    • a piece of code that deserializes old data stored with "compact"
    • a piece of code that deserializes these data using "binary"

    Both cases are not really hard to implement technically.
