mfaizudd / grpc-chat

A console chat app using rust and grpc

grpc-chat, rust edition

A complete rewrite of my own GrpcChat in rust

Why?

idk lol

Running with cargo

To the server on port 5000:

cargo run --bin chat-server -- -p 5000

To start the client on localhost:5000

cargo run --bin chat-client -- localhost -p 5000

Using tls

Currently, the server doesn't support tls directly, use nginx reverse proxy instead.

To use the client with tls enabled, place your ca.pem file to <config_dir>/ca.pem. <config_dir> on each platform are:

• Windows: %appdata%\faizud\chat\config
• Linux: $HOME/.config/chat
• Mac: /Users/Username/Library/Application Support/net.faizud.chat

After placing the ca.pem file, run the client with --tls argument.

Docker

To use prebuilt docker image, run

docker run -dp 5000 --name chat-server mfaizudd/chat-server
