Research direction

Start by reading the protoc-gen-prost-validate integration in the linked neoeinstein/protoc-gen-prost repository and determine how it currently handles file descriptor sets versus prost-generated files. Done means the plugin works through protoc or buf and generates the expected files in OUT_DIR, matching the behavior of the other protoc plugins in that repository.

Description

Hi! I saw your comment today on the protoc

This issue asks to integrate with https://github.com/neoeinstein/protoc-gen-prost/tree/main/protoc-gen-prost-validate

I believe first some work is required to support prost generated files instead of straight up file descriptor sets.

Note that ideally this protobuf plugin should be usable through protoc or buf and generate files in OUT_DIR, as is the case with the other protoc plugins in @neoeinstein's repo.

I'd like to help! :)
