A socket programming GUI chat server in python (PART 1) and advanced chat server : console based (PART 2)
This project is divided into 2 individual components :-
- GUI Chat Server, and
- Advanced Chat Server
The GUI Chat Server is a simple GUI implementation of chat server which uses Socket programming technique. It also allows to transfer a simple text file from client to client. All the operations from the client are notified to server.
The Advanced Chat Server is a console based implementation of chat server wherein, the admin(server) can ban or remove a user in the chat room. Also details in this regard will be stored in a text file.
- Both the components uses Server IP address and server defined 5 digit PORT number to connect 2 or more clients together.
- In both the components client and server can work on same system or can work on
two or more systemstoo!! (For eg: One PC may act as server and 2 other PCs may act as client!!) - Use of tkinter for GUI application for real time experience.
- User can also choose their own username when they come to the chat window.
- Requires
Python3andtkinterfor GUI chat server. - Requires internet connection. If working on the
same system, please runipconfigin cmd and copy the IPV4 address underWireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi: - Copy this IP address to both the server.py files in the respective components.
- To work on
2 or more systems, one system should act as server and other systems should act as client. Before anything, the server and client should connect to thesame internet source/hotspotand then runipconfigin cmd of server PC and then copy the IPV4 address underWireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi: - Copy this IP address to both server.py files in the respective components.
