Example src/main.rs

use std::path::PathBuf;
use std::thread::spawn;

use mproxy_client::client_socket_stream;

// read input from stdin
let path = PathBuf::from("-");

// downstream UDP socket addresses
let server_addrs =  vec!["127.0.0.1:9919".into(), "localhost:9921".into(), "[ff02::1]:9920".into()];

// copy input to stdout
let tee = true;

let client_thread = spawn(move || {
    client_socket_stream(&path, server_addrs, tee).unwrap();
});

// run client until EOF
client_thread.join().unwrap();
