Installation

• Using pip:

  pip install py-tictoc-timer
  

• Using pipenv:

  pipenv install py-tictoc-timer
  

• Using poetry:

  1. In your pyproject.toml file, add:

     [tool.poetry.dependencies]
     py-tictoc-timer = "*"
     

     Then in the terminal, run:

     poetry install
     

  2. Or run:

     poetry add py-tictoc-timer
     

• Using conda:

  conda install py-tictoc-timer
  

Usage

• Basic usage:

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> tt = TicToc()
  >>> tt.tic()
  >>> sleep(1.1)
  >>> tt.toc()
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  

• Within context manager:

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> with TicToc():
  ...     sleep(1.1)
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  

• Within context manager using custom messages:

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> with TicToc(begin_message="start", end_message="end"):
  ...     sleep(1.1)
  start
  end: 1secs
  

• Particularly helpful when running loops:

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> with TicToc(begin_message="Start loop", end_message="Time to run loop")
  ...     for value in ["first", "second", "Third"]:
  ...         with TicToc(f"- Time for {value}"):
  ...             sleep(1.1)
  Start loop
  - Time for first: 1secs
  - Time for second: 1secs
  - Time for Third: 1secs
  Time to run loop: 3secs
  

• Custom message:

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> with TicToc("Total Time"):
  ...     sleep(1.1)
  Total time: 1secs
  

• With restart during .tic():

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> tt = TicToc()
  >>> tt.tic(restart=True)
  >>> sleep(1.1)
  >>> toc()
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  >>> toc()
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  

• With restart during .toc():

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> tt = TicToc()
  >>> tt.tic()
  >>> sleep(1.1)
  >>> tt.toc(restart=True)
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  >>> tt.toc()
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  

• With restart using .rtoc():

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> tt = TicToc()
  >>> tt.tic()
  >>> sleep(1.1)
  >>> tt.rtoc()
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  >>> tt.toc()
  Elapsed time: 1secs
  

• With time returned as value:

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> tt = TicToc()
  >>> tt.tic()
  >>> sleep(1.1)
  >>> value = tt.toc_value()
  >>> print(round(value, 1))
  1.1
  

• With time returned as string:

  >>> from py_tictoc_timer.tictoc import TicToc
  >>> from time import sleep
  >>> tt = TicToc()
  >>> tt.tic()
  >>> sleep(1.1)
  >>> value = tt.toc_string()
  >>> print(value)
  1secs

Credit

This package was inspired by a few other packages:

• pytictoc
• TicTocTimer
• ttictoc
• easy-tictoc
• easy-tic-toc
• tictoc-borisgorelik

Why you should use py-tictoc-timer and not any of the others is because this package has:

1. Better & more flexible restart to the timer
2. Better custom messages during starting & ending the timer
3. Enhanced usage within a context manager
