# Pekko HTTP / Scala.js / Websocket Chat App
A simple chat app that uses a pekko-http backend and a scala.js frontend to implement a simple
websocket based chat application.To run:
```
sbt> project backend
> reStart
```Navigate to [http://localhost:8080/](http://localhost:8080/).
You can build a fully self-contained jar using `assembly` in the backend project.
## Configuration
You can set `app.interface` and `app.port` in `application.conf` to configure where the server
should listen to.This also works on the command line using JVM properties, e.g. using `re-start`:
```
> re-start --- -Dapp.interface=0.0.0.0 -Dapp.port=8080
```will start the server listening on all interfaces.
## CLI
The `cli` project contains a command line client for the chat to demonstrate the Websocket client and
how to deal with console input in a streaming way.
It runs best directly from a terminal.
Start the server as explained above. Then, to build a fat jar use
```
sbt> project cli
> assembly
```Run
```
java -jar cli/target/cli.jar
```or
```
./chat
```Here's another screencast that shows live tab completion in action:

### The "frontend"
There isn't more than absolutely necessary there right now.
