Custom timer for your Python coding pleasure

Project description

code_timer

Simple python timer to use for single lines of code, or entire functions/classes

Latest version Python versions CircleCI

New Features!

  • Use code_timer.Timer as a class, context manager, decorator
    • Offers the most versatility and flexibility for your needs
  • Use separate code_timer.timer decorator
  • Use code_timer.timeit decorator to measure the time to run the same function multiple times
    • Useful when comparing the efficiency of one runtime vs another
    • By default, will run the function 10,000 times. The number of runs is configurable
    • DO NOT USE THIS FOR RECURSIVE FUNCTIONS!!
  • Logger allowing you to set the streaming level or hide the logging entirely

Basic Usage

code_timer.Timer

  1. As a class:

    t = Timer(name="class")
    t.start()
    # Do something
    t.stop()
    
  2. As a context manager:

  • Useful when trying to time a recursive function

    with Timer(name="context manager") as t:
        # Do something
    print(f"Elapsed time: {t.elapsed_time}")
    
  1. As a decorator:

    @Timer(name="decorator")
    def stuff():
        # Do something
    

code_timer.timer

  1. Without braces

    @timer
    def your_func():
        # Do something
    
  2. With braces

    @timer(name="my_timer")
    def your_func():
        # Do something
    

code_timer.timeit

  • Time is reported at logging level: logging.INFO
  • The following assumes the standard formatting for the code_timer logger
  1. Default

    • will repeat the function 10,000 times and report the fastest three runs
    @timeit
    def your_func():
        # Do something
    
    • Output: 2020-03-12 21:56:46: code_timer.INFO - Best 3 of 10000 for your_func: 0.2200 ms; 0.2220 ms; 0.2232 ms
  2. Pass in the number of times to repeat

    @timeit(num_repeats=50)
    def your_func():
        # Do something
    
    • Output: 2020-03-12 21:56:46: code_timer.INFO - Best 3 of 50 for your_func: 0.2200 ms; 0.2220 ms; 0.2232 ms
