Chat service written in Rust. Includes server and client applications.
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 :).
- Install the app via cargo package manager
cargo install tchat
- Learn options
tchat -h
- 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.
