======================== TaskTime logging runtime
TaskTime is designed around recording the amount of time that something takes to execute.
But wait, there are a lot of time routines out there, what makes this special?
TaskTime adds flexibility
- able to read already timestamped logs
- able to form task hierarchy allowing for detailed reporting
logging task output
In the simplest form, you can take unixtime (EPOC) timestamps and put them in front of some log lines simply you can:
command | gawk '// {print system("echo -n `date +%s.%N`"), $0; } END {print system("echo -n `date +%s.%N` _GAS_")}' >logfile
Alternately, you can source scripts/functions.sh and use log which simply wraps the command with the above gawk satement
log command > logfile
manual reporting
Once you have a one or more time stamped log files you can run the basic report engine on it. This will use a series of defaults which will create a report based on the contents of the current directory, using a regex intented for puppet. changing the exp_eval to your needs will change the blocking parser to fit you needs
