app.debug = True


class Database:
    pass    


@app.service
class HelloWorld(HelloWorldServicer):

    def SayHello(self, request: HelloWorldRequest, context: GrpcContext, *, database: Database = Depends()):
        return HelloWorldResponse(message=f"Hello {request.name}")


if __name__ == '__main__':
