Installing using go get:

go get -u github.com/amsokol/mongo-go-driver-protobuf

or you don't need to do anything manually if you are using Go modules. Go modules installs necessary packages automatically.

First install protoc-gen-gotag to make available Go language tags for proto messages

go get -u github.com/amsokol/protoc-gen-gotag

Next

1. Create free Altas mini MongoDB instance
2. Create experiments database
3. Create proto collection into experiments database
4. Run this example
