@mishguru/timmy

Timmy

Find out how long it takes to require a file or node module

Installation

$ yarn global add @mishguru/timmy

CLI Usage

--file [path to file]

Time a file

$ timmy --file ./index.js

--package [name of package]

Time a package from node_modules

$ timmy --package bluebird

--quiet

Don't time individual require's, just print out the total time it took to load the file/package.

This is more accurate, as it does not include the overhead Timmy adds when collecting statistics.

$ timmy --package bluebird --quiet

--min [time = 100]

Set the minimum amount of time (in ms) that a require must take for it to show up in the results. This is to improve performance - the lower the time, the more stats that need collecting - the longer it takes to run.

This defaults to 100ms.

$ timmy --file ./index.js --min 50

JS Usage

You can also use Timmy via a JS api

printStats (cwd)

Print out all the times for required files up to this point.

You should call it once, immediately after you have finished requiring all your files.

import timmy from '@mishguru/timmy'

import 'allthethings'

timmy.printStats()

restoreRequire

This restores require() to it's default behaviour.

import timmy from '@mishguru/timmy'

// this require will be timed
require('thing-one')

timmy.restoreRequire()

// this require will not be timed
require('thing-two')

resetTimer

import timmy from '@mishguru/timmy'

This resets the total timer to the current time.

import timmy from '@mishguru/timmy'

// do a bunch of stuff that you don't want to time ...

timmy.resetTimer()

// require the files you want to time

timmy.printStats()

setMinDuration

This sets the min duration to record. You should set this before you start requiring files.

import timmy from '@mishguru/timmy'
timmy.setMinDuration(0)
