This is just a culmination of a lot of Speedtest-related stuff on GitHub and improved on it, just so I can have a means of reporting it to my ISPs when they start to act funny. I'm currently using this on my homelab/mini-datacenter.
The scripts are based from valki2's Speedtest docker container, but using the official Speedtest CLI instead of taganaka's SpeedTest++. Modified it further to include the results embed/link when sending it over to InfluxDB.
The Grafana dashboard is based from frdmn's dashboard, and customized a bunch.
Note: When you first run it, you'll notice that nothing happens for the first minute. This is normal; the script sleeps for a minute to give the machine a chance to calm down before it starts running a test.
The Docker Compose file includes InfluxDB and Grafana, with the datasource and dashboard configured.
Install Docker and Docker Compose, and then:
git clone https://github.com/JMacalinao/speedtest-influx.git
cd speedtest-influx
sudo docker-compose up -d
You can access Grafana from http://localhost:3000.
Coming soon. (Note to self: Stop being lazy so you can deploy this one with a chart instead of doing it manually!)
docker build -t speedtest-influx .
docker run --restart=always speedtest-influx

I'm kinda lazy to get into jargon, but basically, everything is provided as-is, and I am not liable if using this code bricks your device, causes a nuclear holocaust, or anything in between. The nearest one from that is MIT, so there ya go.
