speedtest.php

Speedtest.net mini/legacy-http light server. Works with speedtest-cli

In mid-2017, speedtest.net (Ookla) decided to shut down their speedtest mini project.

This repo is an attempt at creating our own speedtest-mini server, and use speedtest-cli with it.

Usage

Server:

docker run -p <port>:80 ipburger/speedtest

Client:

./speedtest.py --mini http://<server_ip>:<port>/speedtest/upload.php

Console o/p on client:

Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Testing from OVH Hosting (<client_ip>)...
Hosted by Speedtest Mini (<server_ip>:<port>) [0.00 km]: 1.44 ms
Testing download speed................................................................................
Download: 535.22 Mbit/s
Testing upload speed................................................................................................
Upload: 176.43 Mbit/s

Note on speedtest-cli

It is one of the most popular speedtest tools out there. Although, it's functionality with mini servers was somewhat broken. For convinience, a patched version is included in this repo.

TBD

• A functioning GUI - can be something like https://github.com/adolfintel/speedtest
