A very simple chat server using github.com/gorilla/websocket
- a user can send a private message to another user
- a user can broadcast a message to all users currently online
In order to build/run the server:
$ go run main.go
Use the client/client.go to connect to server and send a message.
$ cd client
# Start "user2" client
$ go run client.go "user2" "" ""
# Send a message "from user1" from "user1" to "user2"
$ go run client.go "user1" "user2" "from user1"
To broadcast a message to all connected users
$ cd client
# Start "user2" client
$ go run client.go "user2" "" ""
# Start "user3" client
$ go run client.go "user3" "" ""
# Broadcast a message "from user1" from "user1" to all connected users
$ go run client.go "user1" "GLOBAL" "from user1"
