# TCP Client example
|
|
|
|
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
|
|
|
|
The application creates a TCP socket and tries to connect to the server with predefined IP address and port number. When a connection is successfully established, the application sends message and waits for the answer. After the server's reply, application prints received reply as ASCII text, waits for 2 seconds and sends another message.
|
|
|
|
## Configure the project
|
|
This example can be configured to run on ESP32 and Linux target to communicate over IPv4 and IPv6.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
idf.py menuconfig
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Set following parameters under ```Example Configuration``` Options:
|
|
|
|
* Set `IP version` of example to be IPV4 or IPV6.
|
|
|
|
* Set `IPV4 Address` in case your chose IP version IPV4 above.
|
|
|
|
* Set `IPV6 Address` in case your chose IP version IPV6 above.
|
|
* For IPv6 there's an additional option for ```Interface selection```.
|
|
* Enter the name of the interface to explicitely establish communication over a specific interface.
|
|
* On selecting ```Auto``` the example will find the first interface with an IPv6 address and use it.
|
|
|
|
* Set `Port` number that represents remote port the example will connect to.
|
|
|
|
Configure Wi-Fi or Ethernet under "Example Connection Configuration" menu. See "Establishing Wi-Fi or Ethernet Connection" section in [examples/protocols/README.md](../../README.md) for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: please replace `192.168.0.167 3333` with desired IPV4/IPV6 address (displayed in monitor console) and port number in the following command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How to use example:
|
|
|
|
In order to create TCP server that communicates with TCP Client example, choose one of the following options.
|
|
|
|
There are many host-side tools which can be used to interact with the UDP/TCP server/client.
|
|
One command line tool is [netcat](http://netcat.sourceforge.net) which can send and receive many kinds of packets.
|
|
|
|
Ref to the [upper level README](../README.md#host-tools) for more information.
|
|
|
|
### TCP server using netcat
|
|
```
|
|
nc -l 192.168.0.167 3333
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Hardware Required
|
|
|
|
This example can be run on any commonly available ESP32 development board.
|
|
This example can also run on any Linux environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Build and Flash
|
|
|
|
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
|
|
|
|
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
Start server first, to receive data sent from the client (application).
