fastcli

master branch build status

Python3 CLI script for fast.com

Features

Shows approximate download speed by way of Fast.com.

Introduction

Fast.com is a newish Netflix download speed test. It bases its results on download speed of actual Netflix video content, which makes it much harder for ISPs to embellish their results (without also speeding up all of Netflix, which may account for as much as 30% of all internet traffic).

It doesn't test upload speed or ping, so fastcli doesn't either.

Dependencies

  • Python >= 3.5
  • See requirements.txt

Quickstart

pip3 install fastcli
fastcli

Development Setup

  1. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/n8henrie/fastcli && cd fastcli
  2. Install into a virtualenv:
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install .[dev]

Configuration

  • Optionally accepts a --runtime argument which may affect accuracy by changing to values shorter or longer than the default of 10 (seconds).
