Background

For several years I have used a simple docker setup to schedule speedtest runs and store the result in InfluxDB. The project has been great, with its own Grafana dashboard but I hit a couple issues. That led me to fork the repo, extend it, and make available at https://github.com/wwhitaker/speedtests.

New Features

Building on the old, adding a few new.

InfluxDB version 2 support

For starters, I wanted to move away from the older InfluxDB and the current v2 version. That required building a new server instance and installing InfluxDB2. With help from other similar forks, the code was updated to save to the database with new syntax.
