如何从头开始编写一个简单的 RPC 协议(手写 Dubbo 的自定义协议)
1. 设计协议格式
首先,需要定义协议的数据包格式,这通常包括头部(Header)和主体(Body)两部分。
-
Header:存储协议的元数据,例如消息类型、序列化方式、请求 ID 等。
- Magic Number (2 字节):用于标识协议版本。
- Flag (1 字节):表示消息类型(请求或响应)和序列化方式。
- Status (1 字节):在响应消息中使用,表示成功或失败。
- Request ID (8 字节):唯一标识请求,用于匹配响应。
- Body Length (4 字节):表示消息体的字节长度。
-
Body:包含实际的业务数据,通常是序列化后的对象。
示例协议格式
+-------------------+----------------+------------------+-----------------+------------------+
| Magic Number (2B) | Flag (1B) | Status (1B) | Request ID (8B) | Body Length (4B) |
+-------------------+----------------+------------------+-----------------+------------------+
| Body (Variable Length) |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
2. 实现序列化和反序列化
协议需要将对象转换为字节流(序列化)以便通过网络传输,并在接收到字节流后恢复为对象(反序列化)。
2.1 序列化
你可以使用现有的序列化框架(如 JSON、Hessian、Protobuf)或实现自定义的序列化。
public interface Serializer {
byte[] serialize(Object obj) throws IOException;
<T> T deserialize(byte[] data, Class<T> clazz) throws IOException;
}
示例:使用 Java 原生的序列化机制
public class JavaSerializer implements Serializer {
@Override
public byte[] serialize(Object obj) throws IOException {
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
out.writeObject(obj);
return bos.toByteArray();
}
@Override
public <T> T deserialize(byte[] data, Class<T> clazz) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(data);
ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(bis);
return clazz.cast(in.readObject());
}
}
2.2 编码和解码
编码是将请求对象封装为字节数组,解码则是从字节数组中解析出请求对象。
public class ProtocolEncoder {
public byte[] encode(Request request) throws IOException {
ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(1024);
buffer.putShort(MAGIC_NUMBER);
buffer.put(FLAG);
buffer.put(STATUS);
buffer.putLong(request.getRequestId());
byte[] body = serializer.serialize(request.getBody());
buffer.putInt(body.length);
buffer.put(body);
return buffer.array();
}
}
public class ProtocolDecoder {
public Request decode(byte[] data) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(data);
short magic = buffer.getShort();
byte flag = buffer.get();
byte status = buffer.get();
long requestId = buffer.getLong();
int bodyLength = buffer.getInt();
byte[] body = new byte[bodyLength];
buffer.get(body);
Object requestBody = serializer.deserialize(body, RequestBody.class);
return new Request(requestId, requestBody);
}
}
3. 网络通信处理
实现网络通信层,使客户端和服务端能够通过协议进行数据交换。你可以使用 Netty
这种高性能网络库来处理长连接、数据读写等操作。
3.1 实现客户端
public class RpcClient {
private final String host;
private final int port;
public RpcClient(String host, int port) {
this.host = host;
this.port = port;
}
public Response send(Request request) throws IOException {
Socket socket = new Socket(host, port);
OutputStream output = socket.getOutputStream();
byte[] encodedRequest = ProtocolEncoder.encode(request);
output.write(encodedRequest);
output.flush();
InputStream input = socket.getInputStream();
byte[] data = input.readAllBytes();
Response response = ProtocolDecoder.decode(data);
socket.close();
return response;
}
}
3.2 实现服务端
public class RpcServer {
private final int port;
public RpcServer(int port) {
this.port = port;
}
public void start() throws IOException {
ServerSocket serverSocket = new ServerSocket(port);
while (true) {
Socket clientSocket = serverSocket.accept();
new Thread(() -> handleRequest(clientSocket)).start();
}
}
private void handleRequest(Socket clientSocket) {
try {
InputStream input = clientSocket.getInputStream();
byte[] data = input.readAllBytes();
Request request = ProtocolDecoder.decode(data);
// Handle the request (e.g., invoke the corresponding service)
Object result = invokeService(request);
// Send the response back to the client
Response response = new Response(request.getRequestId(), result);
byte[] encodedResponse = ProtocolEncoder.encode(response);
OutputStream output = clientSocket.getOutputStream();
output.write(encodedResponse);
output.flush();
clientSocket.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
4. 集成与测试
在客户端和服务端之间集成并测试整个协议。客户端发送请求,服务端接收、处理并返回响应,确保数据的正确性和完整性。
5. 扩展性考虑
- 支持多种序列化方式:通过 SPI 机制支持可插拔的序列化方式。
- 优化网络传输:实现自定义线程池和连接池,减少资源消耗和延迟。
- 增强安全性:增加加密机制,确保数据传输的安全性。
6. 流程图
+-----------------------------------+

通过遵循以上步骤,你可以设计和实现一个类似于 Dubbo 的自定义 RPC 协议。这个协议可以在分布式系统中有效地管理和处理远程调用。
