How to run the program
First you should open a couple of terminal windows. Next step is to paste these into the terminal
go run .\node.go -name alice -port 5000 -portfor localhost:5010 -portback localhost:5020 -hasToken true
go run .\node.go -name bob -port 5010 -portfor localhost:5020 -portback localhost:5000
go run .\node.go -name charlie -port 5020 -portfor localhost:5000 -portback localhost:5010
You can have more nodes you simply need to make sure that the last node that is ran has the the portfor has the port of the first.
To explain the arguments a bit:
-name is the name of the client node which gets printed in the log and terminal
-port is the port of the client you are currently creating in the terminal window
-portfor is the forward client port in the token ring aka the guy you pass the token to after you are done
-portback is the backward clients port which is the client you recieve tokens from
-hasToken is a boolean modifier which dictates who starts with the token. !ONLY 1 CLIENT SHOULD EVER HAVE A TOKEN!
