Doesn't seem to want to run on Linux Mint.

Followed the instructions on the readme, and after installing build-essentials it compiles OK, but seems something is missing. Is this a known issue?

pnunn@MintTest:$ gospeedtest
gospeedtest: command not found
pnunn@MintTest:$ go/bin/gospeedtest

Alas, there's been an error: could not start driver: fork/exec /home/pnunn/.cache/ms-playwright-go/1.20.0-beta-1647057403000/playwright.sh: no such file or directory

Hi Peter,
Thanks for letting me know the issue. Can you please try running with latest version as follows -
go install github.com/ganeshdipdumbare/gospeedtest@v0.1.2

[pnunn]

Looks as though that did the trick :)

Not seeing bubble tea in action though, but love the results. Thanks heaps for your efforts.

Not an issue. Can you please try running this sample Go program - https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea/blob/master/examples/spinners/main.go
Need to be sure if it is just the issue with the Bubble tea.

[pnunn]

OK, that worked. I think I was perhaps expecting more from speetest :) The spinner seems to be working, I think I was expecting a bar chart of some sort or something.

All good. On one machine though I did get an npx error when I tried to run the binary produced on another machine saying playground was missing some dependencies.. but I'll look at that another time. :)

[ganeshdipdumbare]

ah got it. I will add the chart for sure in the near future.

For running binaries on another machine, the dependencies are always needed to be installed. As it is using headless browser internally so.

For now I will close the issue. :)
