go-chat's Introduction

Go Chat GoDoc Build Status

A client-server chat app implemented in Go using gRPC.

Usage

Server

Start the server by running go run server.go. Alternatively, you can run go build while in the Server directory.

Client

Start the client(s) by running go run client.go menu.go. Alternatively, you can run go build while in the Client directory.

To run navigate the client:

  • First enter the server ip:port exactly. It is likely localhost:12021 unless the port at the top of server.go has changed.
  • Then you'll enter a username that is yours for the session.
  • Finally, you are greeted by the menu system which will allow you to create, join, or view other members and groups.

Known Bugs

  • None currently. If you run into any problems, please don't hesistate to create an issue.

Notes

  • To disconnect from the server, press ctrl+c or type !exit (hit enter) and the client will disconnect from the server.
  • To move backwards in the menu system, you can type !back (hit enter).
  • This client/server assumes a 12021 server port. This can be changed in the server.go file near the top.

Future Ideas

  • The !leave function to leave a chat and go back to the main menu.
  • Encryption on chat channels.
  • Ability to send files.
  • Complete server re-write to be more extendible and understandable.
