This is a sample multi-client/server done in golang. Has simple user logins and useranme validation.
To run you simply need two terminals, one to act as a client, and the other one as server
You first need to start the server by either:
- Running the demoServer.sh script
me@garciaErick:/path/to/repo/$ ./demoServer.sh
- Running the following command
me@garciaErick:/path/to/repo/$ go run server.go authenticatedUser.go
Afterwards you can connect multiple clients to the server by running the following in a separate terminal:
- Running the demoClient.sh script
me@garciaErick:/path/to/repo/$ ./demoClient.sh
- Running the following command
me@garciaErick:/path/to/repo/$ go run chatroom.go client.go uuidGenerator.go
-
The server supports multiple clients, and each connection is aware of the current user, so messages from server are personalized for each client.
-
Additionally there is some simple validation, no duplicate usernames are allowed and no illegal characters are allowed, as an example ':' (colon) is an illegal character for a username
