README : Key-Value Store
-------------------------

------------
INTRODUCTION
------------
We have developed our code in Python 2.7 and used Thrift-0.9.3 library. The program has a server called kvserver.py and a client called kvclient.py which uses the kvstore.py, generated from the thrift file, as a communication mechanism.

-------------------
EXECUTING OUR CODE
-------------------
Please follow the steps in prerequisites section before executing this code.
1. Unzip the project folder we sent you and navigate to path in command line: /"path to project folder"/gen-py/.
2. Running Server: First, run the kvserver.py using command python kvserver.py. This should print the hostname to the terminal.
3. Running Client: Now open another terminal at the same location, run the command
4. For running client on Unix/Linux/Mac execute the following command on the command shell,
./kvclient -server localhost:9090 -set a apple
./kvclient -server localhost:9090 -get a 
./kvclient -server localhost:9090 -del a 
5. For running client on Windows execute the following command on the command shell,
 python ./kvclient -server localhost:9090 -set a apple
6. Please check the screenshots if you need more help in execution or anyone of contact us
