profilehooks 1.4

Decorators for profiling individual functions

It’s a collection of decorators for profiling functions. E.g. to profile a single function:

from profilehooks import profile

@profile
def my_function(args, etc):
    pass

The results will be printed when the program exits (or you can use @profile(immediate=True)).

If you’re interested in coarse timings and don’t want to pay for the overhead of profiling, use

from profilehooks import timecall

@timecall       # or @timecall(immediate=True)
def my_function(args, etc):
    pass

Finally, you may be interested in seeing line coverage for a single function

from profilehooks import coverage

@coverage
def my_function(args, etc):
    pass

Full documentation is available through pydoc profilehooks after installation.
