Verbose mode #6

Closed sindresorhus closed 9 years ago

sindresorhus commented 9 years ago

Would be useful to have a --verbose flag that displays more info, like which server it connects to, etc.

What would you like to have included in the verbose output?

Available info can be found here: https://github.com/ddsol/speedtest.net#data

And also min/max pings and speeds. Maybe also if not verbose, depends on how much data it is and if it is cluttering too much, then not.

SamVerschueren commented 9 years ago

This is quite easy to implement, but my main concern is how to show the information without cluttering the view :p. Any design ideas @sindresorhus ?

sindresorhus commented 9 years ago

@SamVerschueren I was thinking just showing it in the list:

      Ping
  Download   
    Upload   
    Server
  Location
  Distance
       Etc

And should also be included in the --json output.

SamVerschueren commented 9 years ago

Should we add an empty line between the verbose properties and the normal properties to make a clear distinction? The main reason someone is running a speed-test is because they want the speed of there connection, right?

      Ping
  Download   
    Upload   

    Server
  Location
  Distance
       Etc
