Refactor server #2

Open regmicmahesh opened 2 years ago

regmicmahesh commented 2 years ago

Refactor server to have a struct named server which holds a conn and number of online users in it, also maintain the number of online users by sending ping to users. the format for ping can be as follows

1:1 Here, 1 denotes server. and another 1 denotes ping message.

this should be discarded by client.

also client should not reply to this ping message as the sole purpose of ping is to identify if tcp socket is alive or not.

Mostly done remaining task is to show list of online users.

I'm looking for channels alternatives in servers to handle broadcasts.
