This is a simple package that just tests the ability to connect to Google. If it can't connect it tells you that your internet is down, if it connects it will say your internet is up.
Installing is very simple, if your using windows, just download the required .exe file and run it from the command prompt.
Another way to run this script on windows, is an installation of WSL. Follow linux steps if you will install using a WSL Terminal.
Installing on linux is as simple as it can be.
The installation below assumes your CPU is an AMD X64 processor. Adjust to your liking.
curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/elijahcruz12/http-up/releases/latest \
| grep "up-linux-amd64" \
| cut -d : -f 2,3 \
| tr -d \" \
| wget -qi -
chmod +x up-linux-amd64
sudo mv up-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/up
From here you just need to run up from your terminal, and you'll be able to test your internet.
up-windows-amd64.exe
Testing your internet connection
Internet is working
user:group $ up
Testing your internet connection
Internet is working
This is currently the only this it does, however we will be adding the ability to just give up or down when calling the script, which will come in a later version.
