DirectoryScanService

This repository contains two submodule projects that work together to transfer files over a simple TCP-based protocol.

Clone With Submodules

Use --recurse-submodules when cloning so both projects are checked out automatically:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://git.timoniemann.de/t/DirectoryScanService.git

If you already cloned the repository without submodules:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Projects

• DirectoryScanSender
  Scans a directory recursively and sends eligible files to a TCP server.
  README: DirectoryScanSender/README.md

• DirectoryScanReceiver
  Runs a TCP server that receives file data and writes it into an output directory.
  README: DirectoryScanReceiver/README.md

How They Fit Together

• DirectoryScanSender is the client that sends files.
• DirectoryScanReceiver is the server that accepts and stores them.
• Both use the same simple delimiter-based message format and default TCP port (7156).
