history

Project history and usage

ghz-web is the web server and application companion to ghz, the gRPC benchmarking and load-testing tool.

Project history

The ghz repository was created in 2018 as a Go command-line utility and library for benchmarking gRPC services. The repository contains both `cmd/ghz` and `cmd/ghz-web`, placing the web interface inside the same project rather than a separate source tree.

Official ghz documentation describes the CLI as a tool for local testing, debugging, and performance regression testing in automated integration environments. The web documentation adds a server and web application for storing, viewing, comparing, and tracking JSON reports generated by ghz.

Adoption history

ghz-web follows adoption of ghz itself: teams using ghz for repeatable gRPC benchmark runs can add a lightweight report store and comparison UI when raw terminal output or one-off JSON files are not enough.

How it is used

Practitioners run ghz to produce a JSON report, then submit that report to ghz-web with curl, HTTPie, or a similar HTTP client. The web application is used to preserve test runs, compare results, and watch performance changes across repeated benchmarks.

Why package nerds care

Package nerds care about ghz-web because it turns a benchmark CLI into a trackable artifact workflow: install the CLI/server pair, generate machine-readable results, and keep a local or team-visible history of gRPC performance runs.

Timeline

  • 2018: ghz GitHub repository created.
  • 2018: ghz v0.15.0 published on GitHub Releases.
  • 2018: Repository history shows the `cmd/ghz-web` command path under active development.
  • 2024: ghz.sh documentation includes a Web section for ghz-web.

Related projects

  • ghz-web is related to ghz, gRPC, Go load-test libraries, JSON benchmark reports, curl, HTTPie, and CI performance-regression workflows.
