use bombard (bombardment) with headers / cookies

[Laurent Mirguet]

Hello,

Is it possible to customize the headers (or to set cookies) when using
bombard / bombardment ?

Here is the command I use when calling siege :
siege -t30s -c10 -H "Cookie: SESS07bf2ee89ee6ae=fc6e150a227f20d;"

I would like to achieve something similar with bombardment.
Is it possible ?

Thanks for your help,
Laurent

Could you try this version:

I added a -H option to bombard.

Hello Jeff,

Thanks a lot, it works.

For some reason the generated charts are empty on my machine... But it
is not an issue for me as the logs are enough.

Thanks

Laurent

The charts are nice especially if you're trying to convey a story to
others. Did you get any error messages when it ran?

[Laurent Mirguet]

No, did not get any error... I had to install the Chart/Lines.pm
package. And once this was done, the whole thing went fine - with the
notable exception that there is nothing on the charts.

I'm still happy by the tool, since I can generate charts from the logs.

Thank you
Laurent
