Something weird just happened: I’ve actually created the first PowerShell script that now regularly runs on my main Linux machine … the start of something new? …
I’ve been using PowerShell, well, A LOT at work lately – and the syntax is just so easy and straight forward – you gotta love it, even as a dedicated Linux user 😉
Script Speedtest.ps1
<br />
$outfile = "speedtest.csv"</p>
<p>[regex]$regexDl="Download\:\s(?'speed'\d+\.\d+)\s"<br />
[regex]$regexUl="Upload\:\s(?'speed'\d+\.\d+)\s"</p>
<p>"Date;Time;Download;Upload;" | Out-File $outfile -Encoding utf8</p>
<p>while (1 -eq 1) {<br />
Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "doing speedtest..."<br />
$meas = $(speedtest)<br />
$meas<br />
$download = $regexDl.Match($meas).Groups[1].Value.Replace(".",",")<br />
$upload = $regexUl.Match($meas).Groups[1].Value.Replace(".",",")</p>
<p> "$(Get-Date -Format "yyyy-mm-dd;HH:mm:ss");$download;$upload;" | Out-File $outfile -Encoding utf8 -Append<br />
Start-Sleep -Seconds 300<br />
}<br />
The results will be shared in a couple of days when I’ve collected a significant amount of data!
Update: first results –Â upload speed pretty constant, download unstable!
