GolangChat

I'm learning golang, so it's just for testing :D

Chat made with Golang using net/rpc module.

Compilation

  //to compile the server
  go build server.go
  
  //to compile the client
  go build client.go

Client

  ./client --server [direction] --port [port] --name [name]

Where direction is like 192.168.1.34, port like 1234 and name like Bob.

Server

  ./server --server [direction] --port [port]

Where direction and port are like in the client.
