template::timer

Timer(3pm)						User Contributed Perl Documentation						Timer(3pm)

NAME

       Template::Timer - Rudimentary profiling for Template Toolkit

VERSION

       Version 1.00

SYNOPSIS

       Template::Timer provides inline timings of the template processing througout your code.	It's an overridden version of Template::Context
       that wraps the "process()" and "include()" methods.

       Using Template::Timer is simple.

	   use Template::Timer;

	   my %config = ( # Whatever your config is
	       INCLUDE_PATH    => '/my/template/path',
	       COMPILE_EXT     => '.ttc',
	       COMPILE_DIR     => '/tmp/tt',
	   );

	   if ( $development_mode ) {
	       $config{ CONTEXT } = Template::Timer->new( %config );
	   }

	   my $template = Template->new( \%config );

       Now when you process templates, HTML comments will get embedded in your output, which you can easily grep for.  The nesting level is also
       shown.

	   <!-- TIMER START: L1 process mainmenu/mainmenu.ttml -->
	   <!-- TIMER START: L2 include mainmenu/cssindex.tt -->
	   <!-- TIMER START: L3 process mainmenu/cssindex.tt -->
	   <!-- TIMER END:   L3 process mainmenu/cssindex.tt (17.279 ms) -->
	   <!-- TIMER END:   L2 include mainmenu/cssindex.tt (17.401 ms) -->

	   ....

	   <!-- TIMER END:   L3 process mainmenu/footer.tt (3.016 ms) -->
	   <!-- TIMER END:   L2 include mainmenu/footer.tt (3.104 ms) -->
	   <!-- TIMER END:   L1 process mainmenu/mainmenu.ttml (400.409 ms) -->

       Note that since INCLUDE is a wrapper around PROCESS, calls to INCLUDEs will be doubled up, and slightly longer than the PROCESS call.
