## 🖥️ Installation
Installation guide for the CLI Tool and Golang Library.
### 💻 CLI Tool
To install the CLI tool, you can install it through [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):
```shell
$ brew tap leozz37/hare
$ brew install hare
```
Or you can install manually with the `Makefile` script:
```shell
$ make install
```
### 🐇 Golang Lib
First, you need [Go](https://golang.org/) (version 1.12+ is required), then you can install Hare:
```shell
$ go get -u "github.com/leozz37/hare"
```
Import it in your code:
```shell
import "github.com/leozz37/hare"
```
## 🍕 Quickstart
Quick start for the CLI Tool and the Golang Library.
### 💻 CLI Tool
To use the CLI tool, these are the flags:
```
-d string
Data to be sended
-h string
Host address to bo operated (default "localhost")
-l Listen to a given address
-p string
Port address to bo operated [REQUIRED]
-s Send message to a given address
```
You can run the `--help` flag:
```shell
$ hare --help
```
To `Listen` to port `3000` for example, run:
```shell
$ hare -l -p 3000
```
To `Send` a payload with the message `Hello World` to port `3000` for example, run:
```shell
$ hare -s -p 3000 -d 'Hello World'
```
### 🐇 Golang Lib
[Sample code](./examples/send.go) for sending payloads:
```go
package main
import (
"github.com/leozz37/hare"
)
func main() {
hare.Send(3000, "Hello, World")
}
```
[Sample code](./examples/listen.go) for listening a port:
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/leozz37/hare"
)
func main() {
r, _ := hare.Listen("3000")
for {
if r.HasNewMessages() {
fmt.Println(r.GetMessage())
}
}
}
```
## 📖 Documentation
The library consists of two features: **listen** and **send** to a given port. You can check the full documentation on [Godoc](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/leozz37/hare#section-documentation).
### Send
Receives a `port` and a `message`, both as `string` and returns an `error` (if something goes wrong).
```go
func Send(port, message string) error;
```
Usage example:
```go
func main() {
err := hare.Send(3000, "Hello, World")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
}
```
---
### Listen
Receives a `port` as `string` and returns a `Listener` struct and an `error` (if something goes wrong).
```go
func Listen(port string) (*Listener, error);
```
Usage example:
```go
func main() {
r, _ := hare.Listen("3000")
l, _ := hare.listen("3001")
for {
if r.HasNewMessages() {
fmt.Println(r.GetMessage())
} else if l.HasNewMessages() {
fmt.Println(l.GetMessage())
}
}
```
---
### Listener
The **Listener** struct returned by `Listen()` function has the following fields:
```go
type Listener struct {
SocketListener net.Listener
HasNewMessages func() bool
GetMessage func() string
Stop func()
}
```
`SocketListener` is the socket connection.
```go
listener.SocketListener, _ = net.Listen("tcp", "localhost:" + port)
```
`HasNewMessages()` function returns a `bool` being `true` with there's a new message:
```go
func main() {
r, _ := hare.Listen("3000")
if r.HasNewMessages() {
fmt.Println("There's a new message!")
}
}
```
`GetMessage()` function returns a `string` with the last message received on the socket:
```go
func main() {
r, _ := hare.Listen("3000")
if r.HasNewMessages() {
fmt.Println(r.GetMessage())
}
}
```
`Stop()` function closes the listener connection:
```go
func main() {
r, _ := hare.Listen("3000")
hare.Send("3000", "Hey beauty")
r.Stop()
err := Send("3000", "This should fails")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
}
```
## 📙 Examples
You can check the [example](./examples) for code usages, like [send](./examples/send.go) and [listen](./examples/listen.go) samples.
Since Hare only listens and send messages, here's a complete example:
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
"github.com/leozz37/hare"
)
func listenSockets(port string) {
r, _ := hare.Listen(port)
for {
if r.HasNewMessages() {
fmt.Println(r.GetMessage())
}
}
}
func main() {
go listenSockets("3000")
go listenSockets("3001")
for {
hare.Send("3000", "Hello port 3000")
hare.Send("3001", "Hello port 3001")
time.Sleep(time.Second)
}
}
```
## 🧪 Testing
To run the test suite, you can run with:
```shell
$ go test
```
If you want a more detailed report with coverage and an `coverage.out` file, do the following:
```shell
$ go test -v -covermode=count -coverprofile=coverage.out
```
