hey是一款使用Golang開發的HTTP壓力測試工具，可作為ApacheBench (ab)替代品，在文章中《socat與Brook 端口轉發非權威對比測試，到底孰強孰弱？》有提到hey這個工具，這篇文章來詳細說明下hey的安裝和使用。

安裝hey

以下使用Linux 64位系統，如果您是其它操作系統，請自行前往hey項目地址下載對應客戶端。

作者已經提供編譯好的二進制包，可直接下載使用：

#下載hey

hey的使用

輸入hey -h查看幫助信息：

flag needs an argument: -h
Usage: hey [options...] <url>

Options:
  -n  Number of requests to run. Default is 200.
  -c  Number of workers to run concurrently. Total number of requests cannot
      be smaller than the concurrency level. Default is 50.
  -q  Rate limit, in queries per second (QPS) per worker. Default is no rate limit.
  -z  Duration of application to send requests. When duration is reached,
      application stops and exits. If duration is specified, n is ignored.
      Examples: -z 10s -z 3m.
  -o  Output type. If none provided, a summary is printed.
      "csv" is the only supported alternative. Dumps the response
      metrics in comma-separated values format.

  -m  HTTP method, one of GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, OPTIONS.
  -H  Custom HTTP header. You can specify as many as needed by repeating the flag.
      For example, -H "Accept: text/html" -H "Content-Type: application/xml" .
  -t  Timeout for each request in seconds. Default is 20, use 0 for infinite.
  -A  HTTP Accept header.
  -d  HTTP request body.
  -D  HTTP request body from file. For example, /home/user/file.txt or ./file.txt.
  -T  Content-type, defaults to "text/html".
  -a  Basic authentication, username:password.
  -x  HTTP Proxy address as host:port.
  -h2 Enable HTTP/2.

  -host HTTP Host header.

  -disable-compression  Disable compression.
  -disable-keepalive    Disable keep-alive, prevents re-use of TCP
                        connections between different HTTP requests.
  -disable-redirects    Disable following of HTTP redirects
  -cpus                 Number of used cpu cores.
                        (default for current machine is 2 cores)

舉個例子：

hey -n 10000 -c 100 -m GET http://www.qq.com/

• -n：請求總數
• -c：客戶端連接數
• -m：請求方法，比如GET/POST等

上面例子的含義就是對http://www.qq.com/發起100個GET并發請求，請求總數為10000個，執行完畢后hey還會打印統計信息，如下。

更多用法請自行執行hey -h查看幫助使用。

最后

hey可以很方便的對網站進行壓測，并返回詳細統計結果。另外壓測工具會對服務器造成一定壓力，相當于對網站發起CC攻擊，因此請勿濫用。
