Speedtest command appears to be broken #47

gcastle2007 · 2024-10-03T09:11:15Z

          I made instruction:

## If migrating from prior bintray install instructions please first...
# sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/speedtest.list
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get remove speedtest
## Other non-official binaries will conflict with Speedtest CLI
# Example how to remove using apt-get
# sudo apt-get remove speedtest-cli
sudo apt-get install curl
curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/ookla/speedtest-cli/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install speedtest

I don't have process after command "speedtest" in bot:

wlanpi@wlanpi-359:~ $ ps -ax | grep speedtest
   4769 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto speedtest

Command speedtest | egrep... work correctly in console:

wlanpi@wlanpi-359:/opt/wlanpi-chat-bot/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chatbot/py_commands $ speedtest | egrep -w "Testing from|Download|Upload" | sed -r 's/Testing from.*?\(/My IP: /g; s/\)\.\.\.//g; s/Download/D/g; s/Upload/U/g; s/bit\/s/bps/g'
    D:   862.87 Mbps (data used: 1.4 GB)
      U:   895.67 Mbps (data used: 1.5 GB)
wlanpi@wlanpi-359:/opt/wlanpi-chat-bot/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chatbot/py_commands $

But speedtest-cli |egrep... have result beautefull:

wlanpi@wlanpi-359:/opt/wlanpi-chat-bot/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chatbot/py_commands $ speedtest-cli | egrep -w "Testing from|Download|Upload" | sed -r 's/Testing from.*?\(/My IP: /g; s/\)\.\.\.//g; s/Download/D/g; s/Upload/U/g; s/bit\/s/bps/g'

D: 414.86 Mbps
U: 515.27 Mbps
wlanpi@wlanpi-359:/opt/wlanpi-chat-bot/lib/python3.9/site-packages/chatbot/py_commands $

But I don't see this command being executed from speedtest.py. The process with "speedtest" doesn't appear.

        speedtest_cmd = "speedtest | egrep -w \"Testing from|Download|Upload\" | sed -r 's/Testing from.*?\(/My IP: /g; s/\)\.\.\.//g; s/Download/D/g; s/Upload/U/g; s/bit\/s/bps/g'"

Thanks for installing the binary and doing this testing (#46).

It's clear there are performance differences in speedtest-cli and speedtest from Ookla in your results posted above.

Possibly something changed in the Ookla binary between when Nigel wrote his wrapper code 3 years ago.

Needs further attention from someone.

joshschmelzle · 2024-10-03T15:04:54Z

Do you see still see 📈 Running speedtest...please wait ⏳ or did the behavior change?

gcastle2007 · 2024-10-04T10:52:32Z

I found error. speedtest need to start with parameters:

speedtest --accept-license

I will made pull request. Please check.

joshschmelzle · 2024-10-04T14:19:14Z

As mentioned in PR #49, we absolutely cannot run with --accept-license as a default behavior. The user needs to read the EULA and accept them on their own.

joshschmelzle · 2024-10-04T14:27:25Z

The changes in your other PR #48 have been reverted in fa09ed0.

gcastle2007 · 2024-10-04T14:32:25Z

Please show me page in guide of wlanpi-chat-bot about information about license agreement of speedtest. I not found this information in guide.

Therefore, users don't know that this needs to be done. And also don't know that for the chat bot you need to create the home directory in home. All this leads to the fact that using speedtest is not possible. You can refer to various agreements for a long time, but make the solution work.

joshschmelzle · 2024-10-04T14:33:25Z

Ookla speedtest is not a WLAN Pi application. Thus, WLAN Pi cannot automatically accept the EULA on behalf of the user. Add changes to incorporate a mechanism for the user to accept the EULA.

joshschmelzle · 2024-10-04T14:49:58Z

The approach that I would approve in a PR would be the command to return an error if the EULA is not accepted, then instruct the user to review the EULA and run a separate command to accept the EULA which would also handle any other setup like having a home directory.

gcastle2007 · 2024-10-04T15:04:41Z

You can describe all the necessary actions in your documentation. This may be a working solution.

gcastle2007 · 2024-10-10T20:41:27Z

Okay. My version of solution. Will this work for you?

Wlanpi Chat Bot work on user wlanpi-chat-bot.
Login to wlanpi on wlanpi user.
User must start speedtest and accept license:

speedtest

User must create home directory for user wlanpi-chat-bot and other directory:

sudo mkdir -p /home/wlanpi-chat-bot/.config/ookla

User must copy file speedtest-cli.json to /home/wlanpi-chat-bot/.config/ookla

sudo cp .config/ookla/speedtest-cli.json /home/wlanpi-chat-bot/.config/ookla/

User must change owner for /home/wlanpi-chat-bot and other directory:

sudo chown -R wlanpi-chat-bot /home/wlanpi-chat-bot/

User must restart service whanpi-chat-bot:

sudo systemctl restart wlanpi-chat-bot.service

End.

We no longer see errors when running speedtest from Telegram.

What do you say? If yes, I can add it to the documentation tomorrow.
