Yes. This PR is a breaking change. grpc-gateway needs to be updated to use metadata.FromIncomingContext or FromOutgoingContext, whichever is appropriate based upon its usage.

NewContext has been deprecated in favor of NewOutgoingContext. See

and metadata.FromContext, so (locally) change invocations in our vendored etcd
code.

metadata.FromContext has been deprecated, for our use case we need to
call metadata.FromIncomingContext instead.

This breaks API, why there were no major version bump?

We don't have a policy of bumping the major version number on API changes. gRPC 2.0 is reserved for when wire protocol changes are made that will require a new version of gRPC across languages. We have changed our API in 1.x and expect to do so in upcoming releases as well.

This change was broadcast months in advance through all means available (grpc-io mailing list, proposals repo, here). And it was listed under "API Changes" in the release notes of 1.6. Sorry for the breakage this caused, but I don't think there's anything else we could have done here.


EDIT: I locked this thread because I don't think it's productive to have any further general discussion about versioning or API breakages here. Please file a new issue against the repo if you want to discuss our policies/etc.
