The command you provided is a combination of two separate commands.
The first part, echo "${GET https:--example-com}"
, creates a string containing the HTTP GET request https://example.com
. The ${GET https:--example-com}
is formatted as a placeholder for a variable value, but it does not seem to be correctly defined in this command snippet.
The second part, vegeta attack -insecure -duration=${30s}
, uses the vegeta
tool to launch a load testing attack against the target specified in the previous command (echoed string). Here's what each flag does:
-insecure
: This flag allows insecure connections (HTTPS) without verifying SSL certificates, which can be useful for testing purposes. It ignores any SSL certificate validation errors.-duration=${30s}
: This flag sets the duration of the attack to 30 seconds.${30s}
is likely meant to be a variable placeholder but isn't correctly defined in the provided command snippet.
Overall, this command is intended to send an HTTP GET request (specified by the echoed string) to a target (e.g., https://example.com
) using the vegeta
tool for load testing, with the attack duration set to 30 seconds, while ignoring SSL certificate validation errors. However, it appears that the command might not work as intended due to incorrect or incomplete variable definitions.
