⛲ speeve

speeve is a fast, probabilistic EVE-JSON generator for testing and benchmarking of EVE-consuming applications. It can generate up to hundreds of thousands of events per second, with varying IPs, ports, timestamps, accurate Community ID values, etc. under a predefined traffic profile model. Additional metadata can be added based on static strings, Go templates and Tengo scripts.

🚧 Still alpha - work in progress! 🚧

Building

Build like other Go tools:

$ go get -v -t github.com/satta/speeve/...
...
$ speeve spew -h

or in newer fashion:

$ go install github.com/satta/speeve/...@latest
...
$ speeve spew -h

Usage

$ speeve spew -h
The 'spew' command starts EVE-JSON generation.

Usage:
  speeve spew [flags]

Flags:
  -d, --duration duration   duration of run
  -h, --help                help for spew
  -j, --parallel uint32     number of generator tasks to run in parallel (default 2)
  -s, --persec uint32       number of events/s to emit (default 1000)
      --pproffile string    filename to write pprof profiling info into
  -p, --profile string      filename of traffic profile definition file (default "profile.yaml")
      --seed int            random seed for sampling
  -n, --total uint          total number of events to emit
  -v, --verbose             verbose mode

Global Flags:
      --config string   config file (default is $HOME/.speeve.yaml)

The only required parameter is the name of a profile YAML file to use (see section below for details). Other parameters allow for configuration of parallelism (-j, might be needed for higher event rates) and event count (-n) as well as rate (-s, events per second).

Example:

$ speeve spew -p profile.yaml | head -n 2
