Staring at Grpc.Net.Client, tried it but still got an error when run with .NET Standard 2.1. Example at https://github.com/heikovetter/BlazorGrpcSample. With this coming lib, we can set up gRPC service on the server and use Grpc.Net.Client to call to the server through HttpContext integrated with gRPC, just like an example at https://github.com/grpc/grpc-dotnet/blob/master/examples/Clients/Ticketer/Program.cs

Cool thing for gRPC on DataContract at https://github.com/protobuf-net/protobuf-net.Grpc

public class ProtoMessageConverter : JsonConverter
{
    public override bool CanConvert(Type objectType)
    {
        return typeof(IMessage).IsAssignableFrom(objectType);
    }

    public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, object existingValue, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        var converter = new ExpandoObjectConverter();
        var o = converter.ReadJson(reader, objectType, existingValue, serializer);

        var text = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(o);

        var message = (IMessage)Activator.CreateInstance(objectType);
        return JsonParser.Default.Parse(text, message.Descriptor);
    }

    public override void WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, object value, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        writer.WriteRawValue(JsonFormatter.Default.Format((IMessage)value));
    }
}

Usage:

JsonConvert.SerializeObject(data, new ProtoMessageConverter());
var data = JsonConvert.SerializeObject<TData>(data, new ProtoMessageConverter());
