SYNOPSIS

13
14           my $timer = Dancer::Timer->new();
15           my $time  = $timer->tick;
16           print "[$time]: Doing something\n";
17
18           # (time passes)
19           $time = $timer->tick;
20           print "[$time]: Doing something else\n";
21
22           # (time passes)
23           $time = $timer->to_string;
24           print "[$time]: Doing another thing\n";

DESCRIPTION

27       Dancer::Timer provides Dancer with a timing object to clock operations.
28       For example, you might want a logging that shows you when each
29       operation happened (at what time) to determine how long each operation
30       was in order to know where to focus on for possible bugs or perhaps
31       unnecessary slowness.
32
33       Dancer uses Dancer::Timer in facilities that want to provide this for
34       you. Any plugin author is more than welcome to use it as well.

ATTRIBUTES

37   start_time
38       Retains the starting time of the timer. The default value is when the
39       object is created. It fetches that using "gettimeofday" from
40       Time::HiRes.
41

METHODS

43   init
44       This method is called when "->new()" is called. It initializes the
45       "start_time" attribute.
46
47   tick
48       Creates a tick in the timer and returns the interval between the
49       "start_time" and now.
50
51   to_string
52       Same as "tick", just more expressive.
