# simple-dict-server
database["key"]="value"

# Compile
You should first clone this project into a system with cmake & libpthread installed.
If you plan to compile it on Windows, you should edit the source code and transform socket/thread/file libraries into Windows version.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/fumiama/simple-dict-server.git
```
Create a `build` folder.
```bash
cd simple-dict-server
mkdir build
```
Use `cmake` command to generate files for `make` automatically.
```bash
cd build
cmake ../
```
Use `make` to generate executable binary files named `simple-dict-server` and `simple-dict-client` in `./build` directory.
```bash
make
```

# Execute
Start server on localhost using the commands below.
```bash
chmod +x simple-dict-server simple-dict-client
./simple-dict-server -d 7777 1 ./dict.sp ./cfg.sp    # use -d to start as daemon
```
`cfg.sp`is generated by `cfgwriter`.

Open another shell to connect to it.
```bash
./simple-dict-client 127.0.0.1 7777
```
Now you have connected to the server. The default access passwords is in `client.c` and you can modify the password in source code as you like. Please note that the server will only wait `10` seconds for a response after the last communication. The box below shows how to control the server to accompilsh basic add/del/find/edit operations.

|  cmd  |  data  |  description  |
|  ----  | ----  | ----  |
| get:  | key | get key value |
| cat:  | filename | save raw dict.sp into filename |
| md5:  | md5 str | compare whether md5 of dict.sp is what given in data |
| end   | no data  | end conversation |
| set:  | key | set key |
| dat:  | value to set | give value to the key |
| del:  | key | del key |

The raw data starts with an integer showing its size, then a char `$` follows, finally following all binary data in `./dict.sp` encoded by `TEA`.

A cmd sequence example is as below
```bash
get:test
set:test
dat:测试
get:test
del:test
get:test
end
```
The client output is
```bash
break!
Get sockfd
Connected to server
Thread create succeeded
Enter command:get:test
Send data succeed.
recv ack: null
Enter command:set:test
Send data succeed.
recv ack: data
Enter command:dat:测试
Send data succeed.
recv ack: succ
Enter command:get:test
Send data succeed.
recv ack: 测试
Enter command:del:test
Send data succeed.
recv ack: succ
Enter command:get:test
Send data succeed.
recv ack: null
Enter command:end
Send data succeed.
```
The server output meanwhile is
```bash
Bind server success!
