format-chromium-histogram v1.0.0

format-chromium-histogram

Chromium-based browsers expose ASCII histogram visualizations through about://histograms, rendered by internal C++ code.

These histograms can also be accessed through the Chrome DevTools Protocol, but only as a raw JSON structure. It's difficult to visualize these, especially when compared to the graphs available on about://histograms.

This repository contains a simple NodeJS re-implementation of Chromium's C++ histogram rendering so that collected histogram data can be used for analysis outside of the browser.

Usage

See print-histogram.js for sample usage.
