Overview

pyvider-rpcplugin implements Terraform's gRPC plugin protocol for Pyvider providers. It handles the low-level communication between Terraform CLI and Python-based providers, including protocol negotiation, message serialization, and lifecycle management.

This package is used internally by Pyvider to enable providers to communicate with Terraform/OpenTofu using the standard plugin protocol.
