Verbose mode

Would be useful to have a --verbose flag that displays more info, like which server it connects to, etc.

What would you like to have included in the verbose output?

Available info can be found here: https://github.com/ddsol/speedtest.net#data

  • Chosen server
  • Location+Country and Distance to server

And also min/max pings and speeds. Maybe also if not verbose, depends on how much data it is and if it is cluttering too much, then not.

This is quite easy to implement, but my main concern is how to show the information without cluttering the view :p. Any design ideas @sindresorhus ?

@SamVerschueren I was thinking just showing it in the list:

      Ping
  Download   
    Upload   
    Server
  Location
  Distance
       Etc

And should also be included in the --json output.

Should we add an empty line between the verbose properties and the normal properties to make a clear distinction? The main reason someone is running a speed-test is because they want the speed of there connection, right?

      Ping
  Download   
    Upload   

    Server
  Location
  Distance
       Etc
