Trigger is just another way to scale out Gatling.

Introduction

Offically, Gatling provides the batch way to scale out. But it's not very convenient as 1). it supports Linux only; 2). it doesn't have a friendly UI. So Trigger was here to fill the gap.

Trigger consists of two parts: a controller(rails app) and a generator(ruby script ran locally).

The idea is very simple:

• You edit the schedules from controller.
• The generator will fetch the schedules from controller.
• The generator will execute the command defined in schedules.

Prerequisites

Ruby, Rails, React, MongoDB and Material UI are used to build Trigger.

Before setup Trigger locally, you need to confirm following tools has been installed:

• npm
• ruby
• mongodb

Here's how I check mine:

shell$ npm -v
4.0.5

shell$ ruby -v
ruby 2.3.3p222 (2016-11-21 revision 56859) [x86_64-darwin16]

shell$ bunle -v
Bundler version 1.13.6

shell$ mongo --version
MongoDB shell version: 3.2.11

Public server

You could visit https://trigger-sample.herokuapp.com/ to give it a try first (there're some known issues as Trigger is still at its early development stage; but it's enough to demonstrate the ideas).

Setup

get source

git clone https://github.com/keegoo/trigger

resolve dependencies

shell$ cd trigger/
shell$ bundle install
shell$ rake setup:all

start server

rails s

done
