time-span

time-span

Simplified high resolution timing

Uses process.hrtime in Node.js and performance.now in browsers (accurate to 5 microseconds).

Install

$ npm install time-span

Usage

import timeSpan from 'time-span';

const end = timeSpan();

timeConsumingFn();

console.log(end());
//=> 1745.3186

console.log(end.rounded());
//=> 1745

console.log(end.seconds());
//=> 1.7453186

API

const end = timeSpan()

Returns a function, that when called, returns the time difference.

end()

Elapsed milliseconds.

end.rounded()

Elapsed milliseconds rounded.

end.seconds()

Elapsed seconds.

end.nanoseconds()

Elapsed nanoseconds.

Similar packages

Other packages similar to time-span

performance-now

The performance-now package provides a high-resolution timer that is more accurate than Date.now(). It is similar to time-span in that it can be used to measure execution time, but it offers higher precision and is based on the performance.now() API.

nanotimer

Nanotimer is a more advanced timing library that allows for scheduling functions with nanosecond precision. It is more feature-rich compared to time-span, which is focused solely on measuring elapsed time.

stopwatch-node

Stopwatch-node is a simple stopwatch utility for Node.js. It provides similar functionality to time-span, allowing you to start, stop, and get the elapsed time, but with additional features like pausing and resuming the timer.
