Subject: [Netalyzr] Documentation on client & server transcripts and json

Message-ID: <2b67c423f7f6c31a78cfffaaf2bb19c3.squirrel@webmail.iitd.ernet.in>

Hi,

I was checking the json file which could be fetched for particular id. For
NAT detection, I noticed this thing:
{
            "comment": "",
            "name": "NAT detection",
            "results": null,
            "warning": "",
            "testnames": [
                "checkLocalAddr"
            ],
            "linkname": null,
            "problem": ""
},
The above thing do tell that the NAT is not present when actually it was.
The test summary and client & server transcripts though had it mentioned
that nat was present. Am I missing something?

Also is there any documentation available to infer client & server
transcripts and json file?

Thanks & Regards:
Gaurav Aggarwal

No, its that the JSON results for the server side are incomplete.  We added the JSON code relatively recently for researcher support, but most of that support is accessing all that the client does (which IS in the JSON 100%).

If you need the results of this particular test in the JSON output, we can add it in for the next update and/or document how to get the information from the client side data.

Not really.  The JSON file includes all the client uploaded information, both the results and pointers to any uploaded files, but documentatino of what the client does is not formal but only informal in the transcript.

Folks, to those of you using (or thinking of using) our JSON: please let
us know your thoughts and requirements. It's currently a rather
half-baked attempt at representing the full results info, and there's a
lot missing. If it becomes clear that people really want this, will
prioritize it accordingly.

Cheers,
