1. Install requirements

   pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Run the command below to start the name server

   pyro5-ns

If you are on windows and follow the steps above, when you run server.py, you will get the following error:

AttributeError: module 'signal' has no attribute 'SIGALRM'

This is because the SIGALRM attribute exists only for unix like systems. In this case, upload a docker container and run the application, whose steps are below in "Setup environment with docker".

1. Build the Dockerfile image

   docker build -t <image_name> .

2. Create the container

   docker run -it --name <container_name> -dp 80:80 <image_name>

3. Access the container terminal

   docker exec -it <container_name> bash

4. Follow the steps of "usage" below, for the same container where the name server was started

1. Go to the correct directory

   cd src

2. Start the server passing its name as an argument (<server_name>)

   python server.py <server_name>

3. Run the client by passing the same server name given

   python client.py <server_name>
