Timing things in node.js
$ npm install klocka
- klocka logs time elapsed between A and B in ms. A is wherever you decide to put it and B is when response.end (or equivalent) is called.
- Works with express and vanilla node
- No dependencies
- Uses high resolution time APIs time and timeEnd that requires Node v0.1.104+
// require
var klocka = require('klocka');
// to capture all and everything
app.use(klocka); // logs: klocka <method> <path> <duration in ms>
// to capture a specific route
app.use('/items', klocka);
// note: Express adds two middlewares by default that will not be included in the duration. Read more [here](http://www.nickstefan.net/blog/view/express-under-the-hood)$ npm test
- add colours to output?
- use table to align output?
- add an average per route?
- add custom start/stop?
- use server event 'request' to start? Would require passing the server instance and maybe the response object as args. Not solved yet
