</h1>

**rNetBench** is a fast, modern, and cross-platform **network benchmarking tool** written in Rust.  
It provides accurate measurements of download speed (multi-stream planned), upload speed, latency, and jitter — all
through a clean and extensible architecture.

## ✨ Overview


**rNetBench** is designed to offer a reliable and fully open-source alternative to traditional speed-testing tools.  
Its architecture is split into independent components:

- **`rnetbench-core`** → benchmarking library (download/upload/ping engine)
- **`rnetbench-cli`** → command-line interface
- **`dev_tools`** → shared scripts for building, linting, and development

Even in its early versions, the project focuses on:

- reproducible bandwidth measurements
- clean concurrency model using async Rust (Tokio)
- detailed throughput sampling
- modular components suitable for automation and integration

---

## 🆕 News in v0.1.5


- The entire project has been **refactored into a single-crate design** (removed the previous workspace layout).
- All core benchmarking modules have been moved under `src/`.
- CLI entry point unified into a single `main.rs`.
- Improved packaging compatibility for `.deb`, `.zip`, and `.tar.gz` release artifacts.
- Updated CI workflows for multi-platform builds.
- Updated asset structure, including new icons for Windows and Linux desktop environments.

## 🚀 Features


### Implemented


- Single-stream **download benchmark**
- Throughput sampling (periodic)
- Average & peak Mbps calculation
- Custom User-Agent & robust HTTP client setup
- Cross-platform CLI (Windows, macOS, Linux)
- MIT licensed & open source
- Support for packaging into `.deb` + zipped binaries

### Planned


- Multi-stream download benchmark
- Upload benchmark
- Latency & jitter (HTTP + optional ICMP)
- JSON output
- Local result history database
- Self-hosted benchmark server (`rnetbench-server`)
- Plugin-based architecture for test profiles

See the **ROADMAP** and **CHANGELOG.md** for future milestones.

## 📦 Installation


### Build from source


```bash
git clone https://github.com/umpire274/rNetBench.git
cd rNetBench
cargo build --release
```

You will find the executable in:

`target/release/rnetbench` (Linux/macOS) or `target\release\rnetbench.exe` (Windows).

### Requirements


- Rust 1.75+ (recommended: latest stable)
- Tokio async runtime
- Rustls TLS backend (no OpenSSL required)

---

## 🛠 Usage


Basic download test:

```bash
rnetbench-cli --server https://speed.hetzner.de/100MB.bin --duration 10
rnetbench-cli --server https://speed.cloudflare.com/__down?bytes=50000000 --duration 10
```

Example output:

```
Running simple download test against https://speed.cloudflare.com/__down?bytes=50000000 for 10s...

=== rNetBench download results ===
Duration:   10.02 s
Downloaded: 52312345 bytes
Average:    41.22 Mbit/s
Peak:       45.87 Mbit/s
```
