⭐️ Open source Instant Messaging Server ⭐️

## What is Open-IM-Server
Open-IM-Server is an instant messaging server developed using pure Golang, adopting JSON over WebSocket as the communication protocol. In Open-IM-Server, everything is a message, so you can easily extend custom messages without modifying the server code. With a microservice architecture, Open-IM-Server can be deployed using clusters. By deploying Open-IM-Server on a server, developers can quickly integrate instant messaging and real-time networking features into their applications, ensuring the security and privacy of business data.
Open-IM-Server is not a standalone product and does not include account registration and login services. For your convenience, we have open-sourced the [chat repository](https://github.com/OpenIMSDK/chat) which includes login and registration functionality. By deploying the chat business server alongside Open-IM-Server, a chat product can be set up.

## Quick Start
### Deploying with docker-compose
1. Clone the project
```bash
# choose what you need
BRANCH=release-v3.0
git clone -b $BRANCH https://github.com/OpenIMSDK/Open-IM-Server openim && export openim=$(pwd)/openim && cd $openim && make build
```
2. Modify .env
```bash
USER=root #no need to modify
PASSWORD=openIM123 #A combination of 8 or more numbers and letters, this password applies to redis, mysql, mongo, as well as accessSecret in config/config.yaml
ENDPOINT=http://127.0.0.1:10005 #minio's external service IP and port, or use the domain name storage.xx.xx, the app must be able to access this IP and port or domain,
API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:10002/object/ #the app must be able to access this IP and port or domain,
DATA_DIR=./ #designate large disk directory
```
3. Deploy and start
> **Note**
> This command can only be executed once. It will modify the component passwords in docker-compose based on the PASSWORD variable in .env, and modify the component passwords in config/config.yaml. If the password in .env changes, you need to first execute docker-compose down; rm components -rf and then execute this command.
```
make install
```
4. Check the service
```bash
make check
```
### Compile from source
Ur need `Go 1.18` or higher version, and `make`.

### Component Configuration Instructions
The config/config.yaml file has detailed configuration instructions for the storage components.
- Zookeeper
- Used for RPC service discovery and registration, cluster support.
```
zookeeper:
schema: openim #Not recommended to modify
address: [ 127.0.0.1:2181 ] #address
username: #username
password: #password
```
- MySQL
- Used for storing users, relationships, and groups, supports master-slave database.
```
mysql:
address: [ 127.0.0.1:13306 ] #address
username: root #username
password: openIM123 #password
database: openIM_v2 #Not recommended to modify
maxOpenConn: 1000 #maximum connection
