fortio v0.7.2

New Features and Changes:

• #152 You can now trigger GRPC load runs from the UI too (thanks @sayedasadali) - result UI isn't complete yet though.
• #155 Support for port 0 for http server (will print which available system port it binds too) (thanks @olimpias)
• #153 Sorted headers (thanks @SeriyBg)
• #83 Histogram bucket lookup is now optimized to use less memory (thanks @olimpias)
• #156 fortio version now returns details version and build information (fortio version -s returns the short version) a version that doesn't exactly match the release tag will always have X.Y.Z-pre instead of X.Y.Z

Bug fix:

• #167 When using the standard client and/or the UI, connections and go routines would sometimes leak causing fortio server UI to eventually run out of file descriptors.

fortio v0.7.1

Bug fix:

Many thanks to @danehans for noticing that -H (custom headers flag) got broken recently for the command line, the library and its unit tests wasn't affected/was working. Fixed in #150 including regression tests both unit and e2e (webtest).

New feature:

new /debug/pprof/ standard go pprof endpoint for perf analysis of fortio itself as a server (in addition to the already long existing -profile command line argument).

fortio v0.7.0

Big changes in this release since 0.6.9 🎉:

• #144: New size= option to the server features, it let's you pick the probabilities of payload sizes. The echo server will return the requested size pseudo random bytes (always the same for same size, the max payload (256k) is generated once at init()). This is useful to test performance at different reply sizes - fixed #131

• #138: GRPC client (grpcping and load -grpc commands) can now take -grpc-secure to use TLS:

  $ fortio load -grpc -grpc-secure -quiet fortio.istio.io:443
  Fortio 0.7.0 running at 8 queries per second, 8->8 procs, for 5s: fortio.istio.io:443

  fixed #137

• Also #138: https client now supports --https-insecure (or HTTPOptions.Insecure when using the library) to accept to connect using https with mismatching certs - fixed #106

• #136: Build system update and version update to embed version and build info (check docker run istio/fortio:0.7.0 version compared with 0.6.9. You can also find this info on the /debug URL. Any non official build not matching the exact tag will contain "-pre". Updated release/README.md

fortio v0.6.9

What's new in fortio since 0.6.8

• Switched fortio to using dep and a vendor submodule (for the 1 external dependency it has: grpc) (#123 ...)

  If you are a developer / not using the binary releases, please do make pull to update from now on.

  Updated the build image (now v5) to use go1.8.7, from 1.8.5 (and not have grpc which is now vendored)

• Added p90 to the default list of calculated and graphed percentiles

• -redirect-port now also supports the bind address (#129)

• Critical Bug fix:

  Fixed panic when first chunk length wasn't read along with the http headers, added regression test, increased coverage (#132)

fortio v0.6.8

#111

• Added a -base-url optional argument for the data transfer tsv index base url

the goal of this is to make data created through
https://github.com/istio/istio/blob/master/tools/perf_k8svcs.yaml
to be fetchable using the sync index.tsv api

#109 & #114 & #120

• You can now restrict the binding address for the http and grpc servers by using addr:port instead of just port in -http-port and -grpc-port
• For GRPC you can how override the default port also by using host:port on the destination/command line

#119

• slightly less verbose output by default

#121

• Fix for UI mode abort causing double close panic

Also doc updates

Many thanks to @danehans for his contributions to this release !

fortio v0.6.7

New features:

#104:

Search/Filter in the browse results UI

#102:

Auto switch client when using https, allow curl as subcommand, allow http:// to be missing

so one can

fortio load www.google.com and fortio load https://www.google.com
and ditto for curl

without getting

21:18:32 E http.go:298> Only http is supported with the optimized client, use -stdclient for url www.google.com

Also added favicon and slight change in how charts are displayed/errors are handled

Also fixed a bug where early errors such as a bad URL would leak watcher gorountines

fortio v0.6.6

Bug fix for docker based sync: #101 data dir was not used correctly when -syncing

Fix found/for istio/fortio-deployment#32

fortio v0.6.5

New features:
#96

Xml/AWS S3/Google cloud bucket import (so data saved earlier using #62 can be retrieved/reported and we don't need a persistent volume to achieve durability of the results)

New -sync url command line to trigger that initial download before the (report) server comes up

Bug fixes:

#94: panic with bad url
#100: NaN causing json serialization panics

fortio v0.6.4

Our best release ever ;-)

New since 0.6.3:

• Added a -quiet mode to fortio command line + misc bug fixes (#86)

• Fixed a bug where -json - was sending some of the header to
  stdout/mixed with json
• Fixed bug with echo-ing back POST data and added test for that
• DynamicHTTP now returns the mux so multiple handler can be set for
  same path on different ports/servers. Also easier to write independent
  tests.
• Fixed bug where fast client -H Foo:v1 -H Foo:v2 would loose v2 and
  added test for that
• Updated README to document server modes and param a bit more (and
  found the above bugs with echo etc)
• Fixed some test/logging data races with the global abort channel

Example:

$ fortio load -quiet -n 12  http://localhost:8080/
Fortio 0.6.4 running at 8 queries per second, 8->8 procs, for 12 calls: http://localhost:8080/
Aggregated Function Time : count 12 avg 0.00042976883 +/- 0.0002144 min 0.0001487 max 0.000732863 sum 0.005157226
# target 50% 0.000414229
# target 75% 0.000573546
# target 99% 0.00072649
# target 99.9% 0.000732226
Code 200 : 12 (100.0 %)
All done 12 calls (plus 0 warmup) 0.430 ms avg, 8.0 qps

• Tsv Fetching (#90)

The fortio control UI lets you fetch the index.tsv produced by any other fortio to download those results locally for backup or future browsing:

fortio v0.6.3

Changes since v0.6.2:

Bug fix #84 from #65

Fix for timeout not set when not calling Init()

• Also always call Init through http runner and make Init callable more than once

• Also reduced a bit log flood by moving some logging from info to verbose level
