Usage

import { GrpcClient, GrpcMetadata } from '@mitch528/react-native-grpc';

// Bring your own protobuf library
// This example uses https://github.com/timostamm/protobuf-ts

const request = ExampleRequest.create({
  message: 'Hello World!',
});

const data: Uint8Array = ExampleRequest.toBinary(request);
const headers: GrpcMetadata = {};

const { response } = await GrpcClient.unaryCall(
  '/example.grpc.service.Examples/SendExampleMessage',
