Description of Files
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a listing of all files associated with the project and what their
purpose is:
.../README - Current document
.../echo_client.c - Simple echo network client
.../echo_server.c - Simple echo network server
.../Makefile - Contains rules for make
.../cp1_checker.py - Python test script for CP1
.../lexer.l - Parser implementation
.../parse.c - Parser implementation
.../parse.h - Parser implementation
.../parser.y - Parser implementation
.../autolab_scripts/ - Autograder functions
How to Run
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To run the server first make, then call ./lisod with three arguments. Echo
client can be used to connect to the server given the port number. Make clean
can then remove the compiled files.
cd project-1/
make
./lisod <HTTP port> <log file> <www folder>
./echo_client localhost <HTTP port>
Instead of running echo_client, a curl request to the localhost address and port
can be used to execute GET, HEAD, or POST. Also the program Postman can be used.
When running inside a Docker container, ensure the container exposes the HTTP
ports to be able to use the Postman application on your machine's localhost.
