Nudnik
======

Goals
-----

Allow easy testing of load-balancing and failures in gRPC and REST based service-mesh

Features
--------

 - Rate limiting
 - Fake IO load from either client or server side
 - Export timing metrics to a file or InfluxDB with any custom formatting
 - 

Quick Start
--------------------

 * Install Nudnik:
```sh
# Install package
pip install nudnik
```

 * Run example Server:
```shell
nudnik --server
```

 * Run a client that identifies itself as `barbaz`, fork to `2` threads, each sending `5` gRPC messages every `3` seconds.
```shell
nudnik --name barbaz --streams 2 --interval 3 --rate 5
```

Docker - Quick Start
--------------------

* Running on your local/remote docker daemon using docker-compose:
  `docker-compose up`

Under The Hood
--------------
The server binds to the host:port that were specified, and listens to incoming gRPC messages.
Every message consists of several fields:
 - name: The name of the client, arbitrary string
 - stream_id: The stream id, the streams are numbered from `0` to whatever was configureed via the `streams` arg.
 - message_id: At every `interval`, the client sends `rate` messages, this id is an autoincrement index for that message.
 - ctime: The timestamp at which the request was created
 - rtime: The timestamp at which the request was retransmitted (0 if not applicapble)
 - rcount: The amount of times this message was retransmitted (0 if not applicapble)
 - meta: Just another string field that does nothing, you may send additional arbitrary data to increase message size or specify `random` to generate random data with every request
 - load: This field may be repeated several times, it instructs the server to create fake load of some sort before replying.

 Upon recieveing a message, the server will:
  - parse the `load` field
  - perform the required load
  - print a log message using the configured `out_format`
  - reply an `OK` to the client, also add the field `ptime`, which represents the time at which the request was parsed at the server,
    this allows the client to calculate exact RTT, even if NTP is not synchronized.

Local Development
-----------------
As a rule of thumb wed'e recommend using virtualenv.
Requirement are Python 3.7 + requirements.txt file

 * Clone and initialize Nudnik:
```sh
# Install python requirements
pip install grpcio grpcio-tools requests-unixsocket

# Clone and configure the repository
git clone https://github.com/salosh/nudnik.git
git config --global push.default matching
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email your.email@salosh.org

# "Compile" the entity protobuf
cd nudnik
python -m grpc_tools.protoc --proto_path=./nudnik/ --python_out=./nudnik/ --grpc_python_out=./nudnik/ ./entity.proto
```
