This project demonstrates a file transfer application that enables a client to send files (including video files) to a server using TCP sockets. The application includes a graphical user interface (GUI) built with the Tkinter library in Python, providing users with an intuitive way to transfer files over a network.
- File Transfer: Transfer files between client and server using TCP.
- Video File Transfer: Supports transfer of video files.
- Graphical User Interface (GUI): Built using Tkinter.
- Progress Bar: Tracks file transfer status.
- Completion Notification: Displays a message box upon successful transfer.
- Text and Binary Files: Supports both text and binary file transfers.
- Python 3.x
- Tkinter: For GUI.
- Socket: For network communication.
client.py: Handles file selection and sending the file to the server.server.py: Receives the file from the client and saves it on the server's side.
- File I/O and networking are managed using binary mode (
rb), and files are transferred in chunks for efficient and error-free transmission.
- Tkinter widgets such as file dialogs, labels, buttons, and progress bars are used to create an intuitive interface.
- Error Handling: Improve error handling during file transfers.
- Encryption: Support for encryption to secure file transfer.
- Retry Mechanisms: Add retry mechanisms for interrupted transfers.
- Transfer Metrics: Display transfer speed and estimated time.
