** This is required for proper verbose handling. **

See: `httperf-0.9.1 with individual connection times<http://www.rubyops.net/2012/08/13/httperf-0_9_1_with_individual_connection_times>`.


Installation / Setup
====================

Perferred Method
----------------

$ sudo pip install httperfpy

See: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/httperfpy/

From Source
-----------

Simply clone code and add checkout location to your PYTHONPATH.

Running tests...
----------------

1. sudo apt-get install python-unit
2. git clone https://github.com/jmervine/httperfpy.git
3. cd httperfpy
4. ./scripts/unit


Usage
-----

#!/usr/bin/env python
from httperf import Httperf

perf = Httperf(server="www.example.com",
port=8080,
num_conns=100)
# replace dashes ("-") with underscores ("_") in httperf options

perf.parser = True

results = perf.run()

print results["connection_time_avg"] + " is avg"
print results["connection_time_max"] + " is max"


You can use `Httperf.display_options` to print a list of all available options.


Stand-alone parser...
---------------------

#!/usr/bin/env python
from httperf import HttperfParser

results = HttperfParser.parse(httperf_result_string)
print results["connection_time_avg"] + " is avg"
print results["connection_time_max"] + " is max"
