Limitation: Sige in account every 7 days, else your services will be paused in 48 hours.

Docker Run Deployment

One line command to bring your speedtest site up and runnin if you have your docker environment ready.

Else you can check this post for howto set up your docker environment:

Deploy Docker, Docker-Compose, Portainer and NPM (Nginx Proxy Manager)

Run Docker using docker run command

docker run -d --name speedtest-x-en -p 9001:80 -it johnyan2/speedtest-x-en

-d：start it as a daemon mode

9001: default mapping internal port 80 to host port 9001

Environment variables :

-e WEBPORT=80: Internal Speedtest-x Docker Web Port . Default is 80.

-e MAX_LOG_COUNT=100: Maximum history numbers for saved test results. Default is 100.

-e IP_SERVICE=ip.sb: Which IP DB service provider( default is ip.sb or ipinfo.io)

-e SAME_IP_MULTI_LOGS=false: If allow save multiple results for same ip. Default is false. but strongly suggest to set it to True

Run Docker with multiple environment variables

docker run -d -e SAME_IP_MULTI_LOGS=true -e MAX_LOG_COUNT=500 -p 9001:80 -it johnyan2/speedtest-x-en

Speedtest-X Home Page:

Deploy to Own VPS

Not recommended to deploy it to other application platform such as fly.io, since those platforms are having limitation for the outbound/inbound througputs. It will be better for you to know the speed limitation on your VPS before deploying to it.

{
  "ipv6": true,
