The file writing process for protobuf files has been extracted into a new function called writeProtoFile(). This refactoring simplifies the main function. The code is cleaner and more manageable this way, improving maintainability and readability.
The code responsible for error handling during file creation in the desc_source.go file has been streamlined. This modification simplifies the code by reducing unnecessary condition checks and redundant file closure action after an error has occurred.
The file close operation has been moved within the error handling of the 'PrintProtoFile' function. Previously, it was being executed before this function, now it's executed immediately after. Moreover, an additional close operation has been added after the function success ensuring the file is properly closed in all scenarios.
The code for file creation and error handling in desc_source.go has been refactored. Previously, the file closure operation was executed irrespective of whether the file was created successfully or not. Now, the file will only be closed if it was successfully created, improving error handling.
Added a new function, `WriteProtoFiles` in `desc_source.go` which is used to generate .proto files. The process involves resolving symbols from the descriptor source and writing their definitions to a designated output directory. The corresponding flag `--proto-out` has been included in `grpcurl.go` to allow users to specify the directory path.
* update to latest jhump/protoreflect
* be lenient when possible if server cannot furnish all dependencies
* move linting back to go 1.21 instead of latest go 1.22
* make staticcheck happy
* organize into multiple files
* make listing methods show fully-qualified names
* address small feedback from recent change (trim then check if empty)
