What is gatlingjs?

An npm library to run gatling from node.js project by placing the simulation files in your project repository.

Does it have any pre-requisities?

* In order to run Gatling, you need to have a JDK installed. Gatling requires JDK8, still recommend that you use an up-to-date version.
* Make sure that JAVA_HOME is set properly

How should i install this library?

This is meant to be installed as a dev dependency in your project folder
`` npm i gatlingjs -D `

How do I configure my project to add simulation files

At present, gatlingjs needs the following folders in your project root

* test/performance/results => html representation of results
* test/performance/user-files/simulations => .scala files used for simulation
* test/performance/user-files/data => data feed
* test/performance/user-files/bodies => request body related stuff

How do i run it?

` ./node_modules/gatlingjs/dist/index.js ``
Behind the scenes, gatlingjs will scan test/performance/user-files/simulations for the simulation files and prompt you to choose the simulation you wanna run.

Is there a sample project?

You can find it at https://github.com/abhiche/gatlingjs-example

By the way, is there any documentation for gatling?

* http://gatling.io/docs/current/quickstart/
* http://gatling.io/docs/current/advanced_tutorial/#advanced-tutorial

Note:
* You do not need to explicitly download the binaries from gatling.io since gatling is embedded in this library.
* At the moment, this works only on nix platform. Please feel free to contribute to support it on windows too.

TODOs

* Unit tests
* Support command line arguments available in gatling
* Compatibility with Windows Platform
