speedtest-backend

A simple backend server to report speedtest to firebase.

I use this backend in my Raspberry Pi to report the speedtest periodically for to Firebase for tracking purpose.

Build and setup for PROD

1. Build the project

   npm run dist

2. Deploy to server
3. Install packages

   yarn install --production=true

4. Change the config.js to your firebase account

   exports.default = {
     // ...
     firebase: {
       databaseUrl: 'your database URL is here',
       serviceAccount: {} // your service account is here
     },
     speedtest: {
       maxTime: 5000 // time limit to run each speedtest
     }
   };

5. Set up the script to run every 15 minutes in your crontab

   crontab -e
   
   */15 * * * *  /usr/bin/node /home/pi/prod/speedtest/index.js >> /home/pi/prod/speedtest/run.log

Wallah, check your firebase data to see the data reported.
