CHATROOM - LiveChatServer

LiveChatServer is a Live CHATROOM which allows multiple users (Clients) to chat with each other.

Features

Multiuser Live Chat
Awesome GUI + Console mode option
Password Encryption
Error Tracking by writing them into a log file

Usage

First run the Server Program by providing the four parameters - Port No, Datbase host, Database username, Database password
```
java -jar server.jar port_no datbase_host your_database_username your_database_password
```
Run the Client program by providing the server host and port no
```
java -jar client.jar server_host server_port_no
```
The above command opens the GUI mode. If you want to open the standard console mode then specify extra --console option while running the client program
```
java -jar client.jar server_host server_port_no --console
```

livechatserver's Issues

How we can send attachment

How to share files with this application.
If I get output stream twice application sto responding

Please help

Can't go back from ViewRooms

Add a back button to view rooms.
Consider the following scenario:
There are no rooms available or the user wants to create a new room then there is no option to go back. He has to select the room ( for latter case ) and then logout and then create.

Logout issue

After making two logout requests,
first by sv_logout and then force quit it sends two " left the chat" messages to the other clients.

Scrollbar

After a new message, the chat window should scroll to the latest message if and only if the user is on the last received message.

Messages - Width of the chat bubble

Width of the chat bubble should be

equal to message length for smaller messages
fixed for longer messages

Prevent Spam

Block the user if he/she sends multiple messages in 5 secs.

.classpath

The github-tags say that it should be at least java 8, but .classpath loads the project with java 1.7 in eclipse. I highly recommend switching to a higher java version, at least 8 for lambda expressions functional interfaces and java.nio (replace old java.io.File class). I even would suggest to use the latest version, java 13. This would increase security and speed and usable language features.
The second point is, that a library you are using is configured as an external jar, which is located in your download folder (/home/iamrohitsuthar/Downloads/mysql-connector-java-5.1.47/mysql-connector-java-5.1.47.jar). Nobody of us has this username, so we are forced to edit .classpath, wich leads to unnecessary work with git. I recommend putting the jar a repository folder like third-party and use a relative link to it. It is licensed under GPL v2, so this shouldn't be a problem, as long as the project stays open-source. This would also be a benefit to all contributers, because nowhere is documented which version is needed or at least that this library is necessary at all.
As a tipp, it is considered as good practice not to commit and push any IDE specific files at all, so every developer can stuck to his choice of favor.

:New Feature - Swing + Console

Integrate both swing and console in the same file.
So the user can provide extra param while running the jar file for the console version.

Add a boolean variable in Request model and then check it on the server.
