How to run the terminal chat server?

The easiest way to do it is to build a docker image and then run it. There's already a ready-to-use Dockerfile so you just go with a docker build -t <imagename> . inside a server's directory. After you built a docker image just type in docker run <imagename> -p <your port>:8080.

If you don't wanna use docker you can install the server's package directly on your computer by typing cargo install. Of course you will need to install Rust before you do it :).

How to use the terminal chat client?

  1. Install the app via cargo package manager cargo install tchat
  2. Learn options tchat -h
  3. Connect to a server tchat -a <address> Example server: tchat -a 31.172.76.176:9005

You can use main terminal chat server just to test how it works :). It's address is 31.172.76.176:9005.
