Profiles

Profiles is a simple way to profile different parts of your app.

Install

npm install profiles

API

var profiles = require('profiles')()
profiles.beg('test1')
//do something
profiles.end('test1') //returns the resulting time between beg/end of 'test1'

Each test also comes with its own acessor method that is the same as the name of the test, so:

profiles.beg('test1')
//do something
profiles.end('test1') 
console.log(profiles.test1)

will print the time it took between the last suite duo of beg('test1') and end('test1').

You can also run a suite of profiles for one given name and profiles will collect an array of beginning and ending time values. Profiles also provides a convenience reduce method to take the ending array and the beginning array and produces a new array with the diffs between their times.

var i = 1
function testSet() {
  setTimeout(function() {
    if ((i % 2)) {
      profiles.beg('test')
    } else {
      console.log(profiles.end('test')) //prints the most current profile time
    }
    i+=1
    if (i < 20) {
      testSet()
    } else {
      console.log(profiles.reduce('test')) //will print a new array
    }
  }, 100)
}
testSet()

To access the begging and ending array call the following functions:

profiles.begArr(name)
profiles.endArr(name)
var both = profiles.times(name) //this will return a two-dimensional array taking the form: [ begArr(name), endArr(name) ]
