Line based TCP server

About

Simple line-based TCP server for implementing command interfaces. There's no authentication or TLS support. Commands are handled synchronously as in Redis. The server uses an event loop internally to multiplex client connections.

Usage

let config = Config::default()
        .host("127.0.0.1")
        .port(5555)
        .max_clients(32)
        .client_buf_size(1024)
        .welcome_message("Welcome to the jungle")
        .prompt(">>> ");

let mut server = Server::new(config, |query| {
    match query {
        "version" => String::from("0.1.0"),
        _ => String::from("unknown command"),
    }
}).unwrap();

// server is a `Handle`. Call `join` when you want it to stop. It's running on a
// thread.
server.join().unwrap().unwrap();

This can be accessed over netcat like so:
