README

legacy ndt-server code

All code in this directory tree is related to the support of the legacy NDT protocol. We have many extant clients that use this protocol, and we don't want to leave them high and dry, but new clients are encouraged to use the services provided by ndt7. The test is streamlined, the client is easier to write, and basically everything about it is better.

In this subtree, we support existing clients, but we will be adding no new functionality. If you are reading this and trying to decide how to implement a speed test, use ndt7 and not the legacy protocol. The legacy protocol is deprecated. It will be supported until usage drops to very low levels, but it is also not recommended for new integrations or code.

Functions

func HandleControlChannel

func HandleControlChannel(conn protocol.Connection, s ndt.Server)

HandleControlChannel is the "business logic" of an NDT test. It is designed to run every test, and to never need to know whether the underlying connection is just a TCP socket, a WS connection, or a WSS connection. It only needs a connection, and a factory for making single-use servers for connections of that same type.

func SaveData

func SaveData(record *data.NDTResult, datadir string)

SaveData archives the data to disk.
