 **Thriftgo** is an implementation of [thrift](https://thrift.apache.org/docs/idl) compiler in go language. It has a command line interface similar to the apache/thrift compiler and is enhanced with a plugin mechanism which makes it more powerful.

+# Thriftgo
+
+[English](README.md) | 中文
+
+**Thriftgo** 是 go 语言实现的 thrift 编译器。它具有与 apache/thrift 编译器类似的命令行界面，并通过插件机制增强了功能，使其更加强大。
+
+## 安装
+
+注意：在执行以下命令之前，请**确保**您的 `GOPATH` 环境已正确配置。
+
+使用 `go install`：
+
+`GO111MODULE=on go install github.com/cloudwego/thriftgo@latest`
+
+或从源代码构建：
+
+```shell
+git clone https://github.com/cloudwego/thriftgo.git
+cd thriftgo
+export GO111MODULE=on
+go mod tidy
+go build
+go install
+```
+
+## 使用
+
+Thriftgo 命令行工具接受 IDL 文件作为输入，并将其编译为目标语言。每个后端都有一系列丰富的选项，用于定制生成的代码。
+
+Thriftgo 目前只能生成 golang 代码。将来还会添加更多后端。
+
+要使用默认配置将 thrift IDL 编译为 golang 文件，只需运行：
+
+```shell
+thriftgo -g go the-idl-file.thrift
+```
+
+运行 `thriftgo -h` 查看每个后端的所有可用选项及其含义。
+
+## 插件
+
+如果 Thriftgo 生成的代码不能满足您的需求，且提供的选项无法满足您的要求，您可以编写插件来利用 Thriftgo 的 IDL 解析器生成额外的代码。有关更多信息，请查阅插件包的文档。
