Update gRPC Proto Files

Update the @dojoengine/grpc package with the latest proto files from the Torii repository.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• Torii has been updated with new RPC methods
• Proto definitions have changed upstream
• New features need to be exposed via gRPC
• Types need to be synchronized with Torii

Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Update Proto Files

cd packages/grpc && bun run update:proto

This downloads the latest proto files from:

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dojoengine/torii/main/crates/proto/proto/

Step 2: Review Proto Changes

git diff packages/grpc/proto/

Document what changed:

• New RPC methods
• Modified message types
• New fields on existing types

Step 3: Rebuild TypeScript Bindings

cd packages/grpc && bun run build:proto

This generates TypeScript from proto files using protobuf-ts.

Step 4: Identify New RPCs

Compare src/generated/world.client.ts with src/torii-client.ts:

// Generated client interface - IWorldClient
interface IWorldClient {
    subscribeContracts(...): ServerStreamingCall<...>;
    worlds(...): UnaryCall<...>;
    // ... all RPC methods
}

Check which methods in IWorldClient are not yet wrapped in ToriiGrpcClient.

Step 5: Implement Missing Methods

For each new RPC, follow these patterns:

5a. Add Request Mapper (mappings/query.ts)

export function createRetrieveNewThingRequest(
    query: NewThingQuery
): RetrieveNewThingRequest {
    return {
        query: {
            // Map SDK types to proto types
            field: query.field,
            pagination: mapPagination(query.pagination),
        },
    };
}

5b. Add Response Mapper (mappings/types.ts)

export function mapNewThingResponse(
    response: RetrieveNewThingResponse
): NewThingPage {
    return {
        items: response.items.map(mapNewThing),
        nextCursor: response.next_cursor || undefined,
    };
}

export function mapNewThing(thing: ProtoNewThing): NewThingView {
    return {
        id: thing.id,
        // Map proto fields to SDK types
        address: bufferToHex(thing.address),
    };
}

5c. Add Types (types.ts)

export interface NewThingView {
    id: string;
    address: string;
}

export interface NewThingPage {
    items: NewThingView[];
    nextCursor?: string;
}

5d. Add Client Method (torii-client.ts)

For query methods:

async getNewThings(query: NewThingQuery): Promise<NewThingPage> {
    const request = createRetrieveNewThingRequest(query);
    const response = await this.client.worldClient.retrieveNewThings(request).response;
    return this.mappers.newThingsResponse(response);
}

For subscription methods:

async onNewThingUpdated(
    filters: string[] | null | undefined,
    callback: Function
): Promise<Subscription> {
    return this.createStreamSubscription({
        createStream: () =>
            this.client.worldClient.subscribeNewThings({
                filters: filters?.map(hexToBuffer) || [],
            }),
        onMessage: (response: SubscribeNewThingsResponse) => {
            if (response.thing) {
                callback(
                    this.mappers.newThing(response.thing),
                    response.subscription_id
                );
            }
        },
    });
}

For update subscription methods:

async updateNewThingSubscription(
    subscription: Subscription,
    filters: string[]
): Promise<void> {
    const grpcSubscription = this.findSubscription(subscription);
    if (!grpcSubscription) {
        throw new Error("Subscription not found");
    }
    await this.client.worldClient.updateNewThingsSubscription({
        subscription_id: BigInt(grpcSubscription.id),
        filters: filters.map(hexToBuffer),
    }).response;
}

5e. Export from index.ts

export type { NewThingView, NewThingPage } from "./types";

Step 6: Run Tests

cd packages/grpc && bun run test

Add new tests for new methods if needed.

Step 7: Lint and Format

cd packages/grpc && bun run lint && bun run format

Step 8: Build Package

cd packages/grpc && bun run build

Step 9: Create Changeset

bun run changeset

Select @dojoengine/grpc and describe the proto updates.

Key Files Reference

Troubleshooting

Proto download fails

Check network connectivity and verify Torii repo URL is correct.

Build fails after proto update

Check for breaking changes in proto definitions. May need to update mappers.

TypeScript errors in generated files

Re-run bun run build:proto to regenerate. Check protobuf-ts version compatibility.

Tests fail

Update tests to match new proto structure. Check mapper implementations.
