Overview

A plugin allowing for executing regular internet speed tests.

Usage

This plugin supports two engines:

  1. Baseline Engine: Uses the Python speedtest-cli library (default).
  2. Native Engine (Optimized): Uses the native Ookla Speedtest binary.

Opt-in for Native Engine

To use the native engine:

  • Provide the native speedtest binary in your environment: Speedtest CLI Homepage
  • Map the binary to /usr/bin/speedtest in the container.
  • Ensure the native speedtest binary is installed on the host at the source path.
volumes:
  - /usr/bin/speedtest:/usr/bin/speedtest:ro
  • The plugin will automatically detect and use it for subsequent tests.

Data Mapping

  • Watched_Value1 — Download Speed (Mbps).
  • Watched_Value2 — Upload Speed (Mbps).
  • Watched_Value3 — Full JSON payload (useful for n8n or detailed webhooks).

Notes

  • The native binary is recommended for connections > 100 Mbps.
  • If the native binary is not detected, the plugin seamlessly falls back to the baseline library.
