# GoSOCK

This is a basic implementation of a chatroom using websockets.

Embedded in this project is also a [custom logging library](pkg/custlog/)

## Overview [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/deven96/gosock?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/deven96/gosock)

## Install

```bash

    go get github.com/deven96/gosock

```

## Usage

To use the logging library, call this snippet preferably in the init

```golang

    import (

        "github.com/deven96/gosock/pkg/custlog"

    )

    

    func init() {

        // name the log file "test.log" and write to it in append mode

        def_writers := custlog.DefaultWriters("test.log", true)

        custlog.LogInit(def_writers)

    }

    func main(){

        custlog.Info.Println("This is just information")

        custlog.Warning.Println("This is just a warning")

        custlog.Error.Println("This is just an error")

    }

```

To run the project, 

```bash

    cd $GOPATH/github.com/deven96/gosock

    # run the project in develop mode

    go run *.go

    # generate executable for current os

    go build github.com/deven96/gosock

    # run the executable

    ./gosock

```

## Example Interaction

![Example interaction](assets/images/example.png)

## TODO

 - [ ] Incorporate a standard Golang ORM

 - [ ] Include User and Message models

 - [ ] Extend chat interface to include login and signup

 - [ ] Include face avatar on every message

 - [ ] Create a Rudeness API that can detect how unsensitive a statement is

 - [ ] Kick avatar out after every 3 overly rude messages

 - [ ] Deploy on Linode server

 - [ ] Linode deploy should be linked to Travis pipeline
