Project 1: A Bite of Distributed Communication

Description

Use NodeJs and Docker to build a distributed system comprising one server and four clients. Connect them via different ports. The Server and Clients will communicate via Broadcast and Multicast Protocol.

Intall node

Install nodeJs from Homebrew:

brew install node

Initialize node on the project directory:

npm install -y

Implementing Broadcasting

1. Build the server.js for broadcasting
2. Build the client.js for broadcasting

Implementing Multicasting

1. Build the server.js for multicasting
2. Build the client.js for multicasting

Running code:

1. Execute Server:

node Server

2. Execute Client:

node Client

Building Docker Server

1. Build server:

docker build -t server

2. Build Client:

docker build -t client1 ./client && docker build -t client2 ./client && docker build -t client3 ./client && docker build -t client4 ./client

3. Build Network:

docker network create project 

4. Run Server:

docker run --name server --network project server

5. Run Client:

docker run --network project client1 && run --network project client2 && docker run --network project client3 && docker run --network project client4

6. Stop Server:

docker stop server
docker rm server

7. Testing Using Docker Testing
