This repository contains a script named bdb_test0.py
to test a BigchainDB network's HTTP API.
It sends HTTP POST requests to the BigchainDB node at
https://SUBDOMAIN/api/v1/
where SUBDOMAIN might be node7.zorg-network.com, kelly.bdbtestnet.org or whatever.
Note: You can use Runscope or similar to test the HTTP GET endpoints.
- Login to PagerDuty and get your PagerDuty
SERVICE_KEY(Service "integration key"). (If you don't have or want to use PagerDuty, you can just use a random string.) - Install the BigchainDB Python Driver
- Using Python 3:
python3 bdb_test0.py SUBDOMAIN SERVICE_KEY
For fun, you can use Alberto's slack-post.py script to post the output on Slack.
You could set up a cron job to run the test daily, and post the result to Slack, by creating the following bash script.
You could call it runtest.sh
#!/bin/bash
cd ~
python3 bdb_test0.py SUBDOMAIN SERVICE_KEY > output.txt
./slack-post.py -u testbot -w SLACK_WEBHOOK -c dev -f output.txt(You must replace SUBDOMAIN, SERVICE_KEY and SLACK_WEBHOOK with valid values.)
Make sure that runtest.sh and slack-post.py are executable:
chmod +x runtest.sh
chomd +x slack-post.py
To create the cron job, do crontab -e to edit the crontab in a text editor, and add the following line:
00 09 * * * /home/username/runtest.sh
where username is your username (i.e. the output of whoami). The added line will run the bash script daily at 09:00.
