It is built for developers who want quick interactive load generation and immediate latency/throughput feedback without exporting data to a separate graphing tool first. ### Projektgeschichte The public GitHub repository was created in September 2020 by Ryo Nakao. The README describes ali as a load-testing tool capable of real-time analysis, inspired by vegeta and jplot. The project combines HTTP attack generation with a TUI that can plot metrics while the test is running. Its README also calls out export support for downstream processing, which gives it both interactive and script-adjacent workflows. ### Adoptionsgeschichte ali has broad package-manager presence for a small load-testing tool. The README documents Homebrew, MacPorts, APT, RPM, Pacman, APK, Go, and Docker installation paths, and the input facts also list Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, Pacman, and Alpine packages. Official GitHub metadata checked for this batch showed several thousand stars and more than a hundred forks, suggesting visible adoption among developers looking for terminal-first HTTP benchmarking tools. ### Wie es verwendet wird The simplest usage is `ali http://host.xz`, then launching the attack from the UI with default rate and duration. Users can tune rate, duration, workers, headers, request bodies, TLS settings, HTTP/2 behavior, DNS resolvers, and export directory through flags. Its real-time terminal charts make it useful during exploratory testing, quick endpoint smoke tests under load, and demos where immediate feedback matters more than a full benchmarking lab. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren ali is package-nerd-friendly because it is a single Go CLI that feels like a mashup of `vegeta` and terminal dashboards. Installing it through a package manager gives users a quick, reproducible load-test command without building a local observability stack. It also shows a common packaging pattern for developer CLIs: upstream release binaries, distro packages, Homebrew taps/formulae, Docker, and `go install` all coexist. ### Zeitleiste - 2020: Public GitHub repository created. - 2020s: README documents Homebrew, distro package, Go, and Docker installation paths. - 2026: Repository metadata still shows active project visibility with thousands of stars. ### Related projects - Related projects include vegeta for HTTP load testing, jplot for plotting inspiration, and termdash/termbox-go for terminal rendering. ### Quellen - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Details aus der Quelldatenbank - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** ali - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Conflicts With:** nmh - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Nix - ali: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/al/ali/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - apk - ali - 0.8.0-r4: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: ali from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Generate HTTP load and plot the results in real-time | https://github.com/nakabonne/ali - apk - ali-doc - 0.8.0-r4: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: ali-doc from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Generate HTTP load and plot the results in real-time (documentation) | https://github.com/nakabonne/ali - pacman - ali - 0.8.0-1: normalized package name match | Arch Linux sync databases: ali from https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/extra/os/x86_64/extra.db.tar.gz | Generate HTTP load and plot the results in real-time | https://github.com/nakabonne/ali - MacPorts - ali: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: www/ali/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Verwandte Links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Secret-risk packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/secret-risk-packages/) - Has protected-tool coverage, approval-gate, or non-low Geiger security signals. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [go](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/go/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [hey](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/hey/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: benchmark, cli, developer-tools, http, load-testing. - [httpstat](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/httpstat/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, http, performance. - [apib](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/apib/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: benchmark, cli, developer-tools, http. - [autocannon](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/autocannon/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: benchmark, cli, developer-tools, http. - [cassowary](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/cassowary/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, http, load-testing, performance. - [gcviewer](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/gcviewer/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, performance. - [goku](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/goku/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, http, load-testing. - [gor](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/gor/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, http, load-testing. - [loadtest](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/npm/loadtest/) - Local package facts share a topical domain.
