v1.2.0

• Engine CPU consumption reduced by 60%
• Implemented M'mapped AF_PACKET for Linux. To enable set --input-raw-engine af_packet. #807
• Added Kafka TLS configuration flag #800
• Fix wrong param value updated while --http-set-param #791
• The engine can now capture more requests with large payload #797
• Created TCP package #97
• Fixed minor bugs in HTTP proto parser

v1.1.0

• Fix usage of multiple --input-raw plugins, e.g. --input-raw :80 --input-raw :81 --input-raw :82 #700
• Allow to set byte size limits in human friedly format: --output-file-size-limit, --output-file-max-size-limit, --copy-buffer-size and --input-raw-buffer-size can now parse inputs from differents bases and data units like: 10mb, 10kb, 100gb, 18t #754
• Fix calculation of the output file size when using gzip compression #777
• Added --output-tcp-sticky so request/response with same ID sent to the same connection.
• Better handling of malformed middleware output #737
• Fixed race when reading or writing using files #756 #764
• Improved errors verbosity #703
• Updated dependencies, including libpcap which should bring more stability and performance
• Move to Go modules
• PRO code moved to the main repository under separate license

1.0.0

Long awaited major release of GoReplay!

• Added option to specify custom BPF filter (e.g. tcpdump syntax). Can be useful in case of non standard network interfaces like tunneling or SPAN port. Example: --input-raw-bpf-filter 'dst port 80’ #478
• Support for reading directly from pcap file, using --input-raw-engine pcap_file --input-raw ./recording.pcap_
• Added official Docker image docker pull buger/goreplay. Should be run with --network host argument.
• Added RPM and DEB packages
• Added support for HTTP proxies. Just set HTTP_PROXY env variable.
• Added HTTP basic auth filter: --http-basic-auth-filter "^customer[0-9].*. You specify regexp which match userid:passwd string. [https://github.com//pull/475]
• Added option to limit size of output file: when limit is reached, it will exit. Can be used for safety reasons. Example: --output-file-max-size-limit 5gb.
• Added way to configure output HTTO request queue, which used to hold requests, if all workers are busy. Example: --output-http-queue-len 5000. Default is 1000.
• Control frequency of --output-http-stats reports using --output-http-stats-msoption. Example: --output-http-stats-ms 5000 (every 5 seconds).
• Configurable way to set minimum number of HTTP workers, by setting --output-http-workers-min. Can be used in conjunction with --output-http-workers which will act as a max worker count.
• Added way to dynamically profile GoReplay performance using Golang pprof tools. Example: --http-pprof :8181. It starts web server on given address, and expose special /debug/pprof endpoint with list of reports.
• Added —input-raw-buffer-size which controls size of the OS buffer (in
  bytes) which holds packets until they dispatched. Default value depends
  by system: in Linux around 2MB. If you see big package drop, increase
  this value.
• In addition to buffer size, added option to turn pcap immediate mode when packets delivered without buffering. Can help reduce packet drop. Example: --input-raw-immediate-mode.
• Added way to use standard Golang HTTP client, by adding --output-http-compatibility-mode
• Snaplen (max number of bytes being read for each packet)
  now dynamically set based on interface MTU + max header size. In most
  situations it should reduce package drop, because each packet will
  consume less space in the buffer. However in some virtualized environments like OpenShift, packet size can be significantly bigger then MTU, so you can disable optimization by setting --input-raw-override-snaplen.
• Added support for ElasticSearch basic HTTP auth
• Numerous fixes to improve quality of HTTP packets parsing

GoReplay 1.0 RC2

• Added support for HTTP proxies. Just set HTTP_PROXY env variable.

v0.16.1

• Add support for TLS connections between --input-tcp and --output-tcp. --input-tcp-secure --input-tcp-certificate ./cert.pem --input-tcp-certificate-key ./key.pem --output-tcp-secure #457
• Add basic support for old server, like HTTP 0.9 #468 #463 #467
• GoReplay now exit once finished replaying with --input-file #456
• Fix prettifier issue, when there is problems with gzip encoding payload #470

v0.16.0

Finally a new big release, a lot of changes on all fronts. New features, usability stability, fixes.

Thank you, everyone, who made it happen!

It would not be possible without this people @smostovoy @exklamationmark @manjeshnilange @kudos @oivoodoo @sattvik @ylegat @nrwiersma @SophisticaSean

CHANGELOG

Major

• [PRO] Added S3 input and output https://github.com/buger/goreplay/wiki/%5BPRO%5D-Using-S3-for-storing-and-replaying-traffic
• Added new NodeJS middleware framework https://github.com/buger/goreplay/tree/master/middleware
• Add Kafka input and output https://github.com/buger/goreplay/wiki/Streaming-from-and-to-Apache-Kafka
• Improve accuracy of replay by using timestamp of when TCP packet was received by network interface (previously used time of package capture by GoReplay)
• Using —prettify-http option, you can automatically decode Gzip encoded responses, and de-construct chunked bodies.
• Now you can enable HTTP response tracking by providing —output-http-track-respose. Previously was available only if middleware is turned on.

Minor

• Add new option --input-raw-expire to configure TCP message expiration
• Filter response if its request was filtered
• Allow space inside filters syntax: `--http-disallow-header 'Host: www.vertaa.fi' now valid syntax
