# Asio chat server example
|
|
|
|
Simple Asio chat server using WiFi STA or Ethernet.
|
|
|
|
## Example workflow
|
|
|
|
- Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection is established, and IP address is obtained.
|
|
- Asio chat server is started on port number defined through the project configuration.
|
|
- Chat server echoes a message (received from any client) to all connected clients.
|
|
|
|
## Running the example
|
|
|
|
- Open project configuration menu (`idf.py menuconfig`) to configure Wi-Fi or Ethernet. See "Establishing Wi-Fi or Ethernet Connection" section in [examples/protocols/README.md](../../README.md) for more details.
|
|
- Set server port number in menuconfig, "Example configuration".
|
|
- Run `idf.py -p PORT flash monitor` to build and upload the example to your board and connect to it's serial terminal.
|
|
- Wait for the board to connect to WiFi or Ethernet (note the IP address).
|
|
- Connect to the server using multiple clients, for example using any option below.
|
|
- build and run asi chat client on your host machine
|
|
- run chat_client asio example on ESP platform
|
|
- since chat message consist of ascii size and message, it is possible to
|
|
netcat `nc IP PORT` and type for example ` 4ABC<CR>` to transmit 'ABC\n'
