fortio v1.1.0

on GitHub

A couple of cool new features in fortio 1.1:

• Support for Unix Domain Sockets for both the server and the client (#276)
  eg.
  fortio server -http-port /tmp/fortio/http-uds1
  and
  fortio load -unix-socket /tmp/fortio/http-uds1 http://localhost/echo

• Support for random payload generation or file based POST content for both gRPC and http (#270, #273 / #280 - Thanks @olimpias for the contributions) - Note there is a bug (#291) in header generation in this release which is fixed in 1.2.0

  • You can switch http client calls from GET to POST using -content-type
  • Or using -payload-file to specify the the content of the POST body
  • Or using -payload-size to generate a random binary body of that size
  • Or using -payload to send a small string as the body

And host of fixes and minor improvements (bug fix around custom headers and user authentication header, better fortio help output, etc...)
