Add the official speedtest cli

Thanks to everyone for their assistance, I have it working on my RPi4 now. Summary of steps I used (for others on same platform, assume you have Terminal installed and Samba for a connected Windows 10/11 PC, with a drive mapped for \config):

On PC:

  1. Download compressed .tgz image from Speedtest CLI: Internet speed test for the command line, which for the RPi4 is under “Linux download / aarch64”.
  2. Open image (content is a .tar file).
  3. Connect to your HASSOS RPi, and under \config create folders \3rdparty\speedtest.
  4. Extract .tar file contents (3 files, speedtest.*) to the new directory \config\3rdparty\speedtest .

On HA, use Terminal:

  1. I had to make speedtest executable using chmod +x speedtest .
  2. Execute speedtest (to accept licences, typing “YES”) using ./speedtest .

Using HA File Editor, add all YAML config as shown in @ptr727’s post above Add the official speedtest cli - #27 by ptr727.

Lastly, restart HASSOS then add the new entities (I use dashboard option to locate “Unused entities”) to a card.
