# srcsnk
A simple server that sends and receives arbitrary amounts of data at arbitrary
speeds. Useful for testing proxies and clients.
## Installation
go get -u github.com/bluekeyes/srcsnk
## Usage
Run `srcsnk` to start the server. Once the server is running, you can download
a file at any path:
$ curl localhost:8000/an/arbitrary/file.bin?size=10M -o file.bin
Or upload a file to any path:
$ curl -T file.bin localhost:8000/an/arbitrary/path/file.bin
All the received data is discarded by the server.
Each endpoint accepts several paramters described below.
### Paramters
- `size` – (download only) controls the size of the downloaded file. It takes
the suffixes `B`, `K`, `M`, and `G` for bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, or
gigabytes, respectively; these have the same meaning as in the `dd` command.
- `rate` – controls the download or upload rate, in bytes per second. It
accepts the same suffixes as the `size` paramter.
- `delayPre` – the amount of time to wait before processing the request,
including reading the request body. It accepts any value allowed by
[`time.ParseDuration`][].
- `delayRes` – the amount of time to wait before sending the initial response
headers. It accepts any value allowed by [`time.ParseDuration`][]. For
downloads, `delayPre` and `delayRes` are interchangeable.
[`time.ParseDuration`]: https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration
### Flags
The command accepts the following flags:
- `-address` – sets the address (IP and port) the server listens on; defaults to `127.0.0.1:8000`
- `-log-file` – sets the file where log output is written; if not provided, logs are written to stdout
