message-board-js
just a random idea i head to make a terminal based "message of the day" board
how to use
run npm i to install required packages
run node server
from the projects root to start the server (you can configure env variable PORT in .env to set a port or let the system choose a free one).
create <message name>.txt
in messages folder containing the messages
run as many clients as you wish with node client
and enter <server ip>:<server port>/<message name>
into the prompt to connect.
example commands to show message "test" on local machines terminal:
add file test.txt and insert content (example: "test")
cd message-board-js
node server
in a new terminal session for the client run:
cd message-board-js
node client
127.0.0.0:3000/text
replace 3000 with your servers port.
