===========

[![CI](https://github.com/egor-tensin/math-server/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/egor-tensin/math-server/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

Development
-----------

Build using CMake.
Depends on Boost.{Filesystem,Program_options,Regex,Test}.

There's a Makefile with useful shortcuts to build the project in the build/
directory along with the dependencies:

make deps
make build

Usage
-----

### `math-server`

If you just run `math-server`, it'll start a server on port 18000.
You can `telnet` to it, type in arithmetic expressions, and it'll give you the
results:

1
1
2 * 2
4
1 / (3 - -3)
0.16666666666666666
1 / (-3 - -3)
server error: parser error: division by zero
-4 ^ 2
-16
(-4) ^ 2
16

Consult `math-server --help` for more info.

### `math-client`

A `telnet`-like client for the server.
It'll try to connect to the server on localhost:18000.

Supports reading input from:

* the command line,

> math-client -c "2 * 2"
4

* a file(s),

> math-client test.txt
result1
result2

* stdin.

> math-client

1 / (3 - -3)
0.16666666666666666
1 / (-3 - -3)
server error: parser error: division by zero
-4 ^ 2
-16
(-4) ^ 2
16

Consult `math-client --help` for more info.

### Docker

Start the server using

docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d server

Connect to localhost:18000 to query it or run the client:

> docker-compose run --rm client -c "69 * 420"
28980

> docker-compose run --rm client
12 * 12
144

server error: lexer error: invalid input at: asdf
