TCP Echo Server

Enarx comes with a TCP Echo Server example to demonstrate networking.

This example is an adapted version of the upstream mio crate tcp_server example.

The added part creates the TcpListener from file descriptor 3, if the LISTEN_FDS environment variable is set.

How to run this example

Build the WASM application

It will need at least rust version >= 1.60.0.

$ cd <enarx_repo>
$ cargo build --target wasm32-wasi -p tcp_server
[…]
    Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 1.44s

Run it

$ enarx run --wasmcfgfile examples/tcp_server/Enarx.toml target/wasm32-wasi/debug/tcp_server.wasm

Using preopened socket FD 3
You can connect to the server using `nc`:
 $ nc <IP> <PORT>
You'll see our welcome message and anything you type will be printed here.

Then from another shell:

$ echo ECHO | ncat 127.0.0.1 9000
Hello world!
ECHO

or, if you don't have ncat:

$ echo ECHO | netcat -q 1 127.0.0.1 9000
Hello world!
ECHO

and see the output of the Enarx keep:

Accepted connection from: 0.0.0.0:0
Received data: ECHO
Connection closed

To modify the port and listen address see the Enarx.toml file in the example directory.
