JChat server and client

Requirements

Building and running requires JDK 13.

How to run the server

• Windows : ./gradlew.bat :jchat-server:run
• Linux : ./gradlew :jchat-server:run

The server will look for a configuration file config.json in its running directory (./jchat-server by default). If it can't find one it will generate a default one.

On shutdown, the server will save user and messages data into two files (users.json and messages.json respectively) in its running directory.

How to run the client

• Windows : ./gradlew.bat :jchat-client:run
• Linux : ./gradlew :jchat-client:run
