Types are any of the following:
For example, this schema contains 6 types:
// 1
message Vehicle {
string id = 1;
Make make = 2;
}
// 2
enum Make {
MAKE_UNSPECIFIED = 0;
MAKE_ACME = 1;
}
// 3
message GetVehicleRequest {
string id = 1;
}
// 4
message CreateVehicleRequest {
Vehicle vehicle = 1;
}
service VehicleService {
// 5
rpc GetVehicle(GetVehicleRequest) returns (Vehicle);
// 6
rpc CreateVehicle(CreateVehicleRequest) returns (Vehicle);
}
We chose types because we wanted the value you get out of the BSR to be correlated to what you pay us, without requiring you to consider how to structure your APIs for optimal billing. The volume of API definitions you have stored on the BSR correlates with your usage of the BSR, and messages, enums, and RPCs make up the core of a Protobuf API definition. No matter how many repositories or users you have, your billing remains correlated to how much you actually use the BSR.
No, only types in the default labels are currently counted when calculating your total types for billing.
Yes - in the Vehicle
example below, your billing would be the same whether or not Make
was nested within Vehicle
:
// 1
message Vehicle {
// 2
enum Make {
MAKE_UNSPECIFIED = 0;
MAKE_ACME = 1;
}
string id = 1;
Make make = 2;
}
Our CLI provides a tool to calculate this:
$ buf beta price
If your code works with buf lint
, buf breaking
, or buf generate
, it will work with buf beta price
. Run this command to estimate the cost of your types stored in the BSR, it's that simple. See the installation instructions to get started with the Buf CLI. Note that the command is in beta, and may change - make sure you are using the latest version of the CLI for the most up-to-date pricing estimations!
We calculate the average number of types over your billing cycle.
For example, on Teams:
We want to ensure you're made aware when the number of types within your organization is higher than you expect. We know that mistakes happen, and we want you to be able to take corrective action as soon as possible. In order to receive notifications, you will need to configure usage alerts. Alerts will notify all organization admins via email when the configured threshold is exceeded.
Community plan users and organizations may have 1 private repo with up to 100 types. Teams and Pro organizations are entitled to unlimited private repositories with no limit on the number of types.
Not yet - it's something we'd like to add in the future. For now, if you want to utilize the features of our paid plans, create an organization and use Teams or Pro.
At this time we only offer annual billing on the Enterprise plan, but let us know if you'd like an annual option for Teams or Pro - we would appreciate the feedback.
Reach out to us! Email us at support@buf.build and we'd be happy to talk. Our business hours are 9am-5pm ET Monday to Friday, excluding holidays.
