Add: Check for network speed

Closed this issue · 2 comments

The script handles slow networks really badly, as timings are hardcoded here and there. It would be nice to run a wget or maybe ping when running deploy.sh to check if the internet is slow. In case it is, let the user know that the script might not execute as expected.

wget is not part of Git bash... so it requires to be added later ;)

This article (in french...) explains how to check it with different tools: https://korben.info/mesurez-votre-debit-internet-en-ligne-de-commande.html

Output a file with Average Dload in it: %{speed_download} the average download speed that curl measured for the complete download in bytes per second.

Last line should be last test.
