Pastey: A Performant Async Python 3.6 App using Subconscious

Quickstart

Install docker and then run:

$ docker-compose up --build

Visit this page in your browser: http://0.0.0.0:5000/

Slowstart

First, run a redis instance:

$  docker run -p 6379:6379 redis

(you can use -d to daemonize this process)

Create & activate virtualenv (you may need to run pip3 install virtualenv if you haven't), install dependencies:

$ python3 -m virtualenv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Set environmental variables (these are already set to the right defaults in docker):

$ EXPORT REDIS_HOST=127.0.0.1 REDIS_PORT=6379 REDIS_DB=1 PASTEY_HOST=0.0.0.0 PASTEY_PORT=5000

Run the server the old-fashioned way:

$  python3.6 server.py

Or, for better performance run the server with gunicorn/uvloop:

$ ./gunicorn.sh

Load Test

  1. Seed the database with a bunch of Pasteys via curl call:
$ for i in {1..5}; do curl -F title="Title #$i" -F body="$(openssl rand -base64 1000)" 0.0.0.0:5000/pastes -L -s -o /dev/null -w '%{url_effective}\n'; done
http://0.0.0.0:5000/pastes/80f58d80-a6a3-4bf3-86d4-7ded65e41448
...

(you can do this via web interface if you prefer)

  1. Make a bunch of requests to a valid Pastey URL (generated in the previous step):
$ ab -n 10000 -c 5 http://0.0.0.0:5000/pastes/80f58d80-a6a3-4bf3-86d4-7ded65e41448
