This Rust application is a simple peer-to-peer gossip messaging system. It allows peers to gossip messages to each other over TCP connections.

• Random Message Generation: Messages are generated randomly to simulate real-world scenarios.
• Asynchronous I/O: The application uses Tokio for asynchronous I/O operations, enabling high concurrency.
• Command-Line Interface: The application is configurable via command-line arguments using the clap crate.

To run this application, you need to have Rust and Cargo installed on your system.

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/neanvo/gossip-rust.git

2. Navigate into the project directory:

   cd gossip-rust

3. Build the project using Cargo:

   cargo build --release

To use the application, you can specify command-line arguments to configure the behavior of the peers.

Example usage:

Execute three bash commands into 3 distinct terminals:

./target/release/gossip-rust --period 10 --port 9001 --connect "127.0.0.1:9002,127.0.0.1:9003"

./target/release/gossip-rust --period 10 --port 9002 --connect "127.0.0.1:9001,127.0.0.1:9003"

./target/release/gossip-rust --period 10 --port 9003 --connect "127.0.0.1:9001,127.0.0.1:9002"
