CollabVM 3 Protocol
Current Version: v0.0
These files make up the Protocol Buffers-based messages that the CollabVM 3 server sends.
NOTICE: The protocol is currently not in a released state, so it can/will change. Do not rely on it being the same or compatible in this stage of development.
Protocol Versions
We will release a major version bump every time we make a change (once we have released v1.0) to the protocol that will break older clients (by replacing/removing fields or other protobuf breaks). Non-breaking changes will be a minor version bump.
Despite the fact Protobuf has data format stability guarantees, we allow breaks on purpose, since if a hacky workaround has to be made, it's probably time for a version bump.
Protocol Documentation
Convention
All given pieces of the protocol are neatly organized into individual collabvm.proto.[X] packages.
This is to make it a lot less convoluted to work with.
This may make it a bit harder to build protobufs for but IMO it's better than not caring.
