Usage

Paste the VM's IP in your browser

Notes

The VM's IP may change with time. View the VM's IP if needed:

 multipass info performance

Or use Docker instead

Build the image:

docker build -t  performance:1.0 .

Run the image in a container:

docker run -p 5000:8080 performance:1.0 -l -p 8080

Or run it in an interactive container:

docker run --rm -it -p 5000:8080  performance:1.0 -l -p 8080

Visit localhost:5000

You can also use a Redis container

Pull the official Redis image:

docker pull redis

Create a new network:

docker network create network

Run Redis:

docker run --rm -it --network network --name redis redis:latest

Run Performance:

docker run --rm -it -p 5000:8080 --network network performance:1.0 -l -p 8080 -r -rh redis

Or use docker-compose after building the image, creating the network and pulling redis:

docker-compose up

Visit localhost:5000

Or install locally

Install requirements:

pip3 install -r requirements.txt
pip3 install -r ptas/requirements.txt

Run: recommended: navigate to /server/ directory:

cd server/

python3 server.py -l -p 5000

Visit localhost:5000

For more help use:

python3 server.py -h

usage: server.py [-h] [-v] [-e] [-l] [-r] [-rh] [-rp] [-re] [-rd] [-s] [-p] [-u] [-f] [-d]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            help
  -v, --version         version
  -e, --extern          use if OpenFaaS is running on the external ip address of your machine
  -l, --local           use if you dont want to use an OpenFaaS server. server will run on 0.0.0.0:80 with no OpenFaaS server
  -r, --redis           use redis (cache). recommended if you dont have SSD
  -rh, --redishost      redis host, default: localhost
  -rp, --redisport      redis port, default: 6379
  -re, --redisexpire    redis (cache) expiration timer, default: 600 seconds
  -rd, --redisdatabase  redis database: 0 - 15, default: 0

required arguments:
  -s, --host            server host, default: 0.0.0.0
  -p, --port            server port, default: 80
  -u, --url             OpenFaaS url
