hirestime

hirestime

...because there aren't enough hrtime wrappers yet.

hirestime is a thin wrapper around process.hrtime() that does the clumsy handling of the returned array for you.

hirestime()

returns a function:

returnedFunction([unit])

returns the elapsed time since the call of hirestime in milliseconds.
an optional unit parameter can be specified that will cause an recalculation.
possible parameters

• hirestime.S elapsed time in seconds
• hirestime.MS elapsed time in milliseoncds
• hirestime.NS elapsed time in nanoseconds

Examples

var hirestime = require('../');

//startpoint of the time measurement
var getElapsed = hirestime();

setTimeout(function() {
    //returns the elapsed milliseconds
    console.log(getElapsed());
}, 1000);

var hirestime = require('../');

//startpoint of the time measurement
var getElapsed = hirestime();

setTimeout(function() {
   //returns the elapsed seconds
   console.log(getElapsed(hirestime.S));
}, 1000);
