Help verify Runloop

Have a Runloop account? These run real sandboxes on it, for a few cents at most, and write result files that fill in the blanks above. Results never include your keys. Run them in a clone of the repo and open a pull request with the files: CI checks every file for keys and impossible numbers, and a maintainer reviews each one before it shows here.

terminal

npx @sandboxrouter/sdk check --provider runloop --save --by YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME
npx @sandboxrouter/sdk bench --provider runloop --runs 5 --share --label "your city or cloud region" --by YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME
npx @sandboxrouter/sdk cost run --provider runloop --minutes 10 --by YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME

Real-account check, step by step

Not run on a real account yet; the adapter is tested against a mock of Runloop's API.

setup

npm i @sandboxrouter/sdk @runloop/api-client
export RUNLOOP_API_KEY=...

use Runloop

import { Router } from "@sandboxrouter/sdk";

const router = new Router();
const sbx = await router.create({}, { provider: "runloop" });
await sbx.exec("uname -a", { onStdout: (c) => process.stdout.write(c) });
await sbx.kill();
