CHAT-SERVER-GUI-PYTHON

A socket programming GUI chat server in python (PART 1) and advanced chat server : console based (PART 2)

SYNOPSIS

This project is divided into 2 individual components :-

• GUI Chat Server, and
• Advanced Chat Server

The GUI Chat Server is a simple GUI implementation of chat server which uses Socket programming technique. It also allows to transfer a simple text file from client to client. All the operations from the client are notified to server.

The Advanced Chat Server is a console based implementation of chat server wherein, the admin(server) can ban or remove a user in the chat room. Also details in this regard will be stored in a text file.

DESCRIPTION

• Both the components uses Server IP address and server defined 5 digit PORT number to connect 2 or more clients together.
• In both the components client and server can work on same system or can work on two or more systems too!! (For eg: One PC may act as server and 2 other PCs may act as client!!)
• Use of tkinter for GUI application for real time experience.
• User can also choose their own username when they come to the chat window.

INSTRUCTIONS

• Requires Python3 and tkinter for GUI chat server.
• Requires internet connection. If working on the same system, please run ipconfig in cmd and copy the IPV4 address under Wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi:
• Copy this IP address to both the server.py files in the respective components.
• To work on 2 or more systems, one system should act as server and other systems should act as client. Before anything, the server and client should connect to the same internet source/hotspot and then run ipconfig in cmd of server PC and then copy the IPV4 address under Wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi:
• Copy this IP address to both server.py files in the respective components.
