NAME
DBI::ProfileData - manipulate DBI::ProfileDumper data dumps
SYNOPSIS
The easiest way to use this module is through the dbiprof frontend (see dbiprof for details):
dbiprof --number 15 --sort count
This module can also be used to roll your own profile analysis:
# load data from dbi.prof
$prof = DBI::ProfileData->new(File => "dbi.prof");
# get a count of the records in the data set
$count = $prof->count();
# sort by longest overall time
$prof->sort(field => "longest");
# sort by longest overall time, least to greatest
$prof->sort(field => "longest", reverse => 1);
# exclude records with key2 eq 'disconnect'
$prof->exclude(key2 => 'disconnect');
# exclude records with key1 matching /^UPDATE/i
$prof->exclude(key1 => qr/^UPDATE/i);
# remove all records except those where key1 matches /^SELECT/i
$prof->match(key1 => qr/^SELECT/i);
# produce a formatted report with the given number of items
$report = $prof->report(number => 10);
# clone the profile data set
$clone = $prof->clone();
# get access to hash of header values
$header = $prof->header();
# get access to sorted array of nodes
$nodes = $prof->nodes();
# format a single node in the same style as report()
$text = $prof->format($nodes->[0]);
# get access to Data hash in DBI::Profile format
$Data = $prof->Data();
DESCRIPTION
This module offers the ability to read, manipulate and format DBI::ProfileDumper profile data.
Conceptually, a profile consists of a series of records, or nodes, each of each has a set of statistics and set of keys. Each record must
have a unique set of keys, but there is no requirement that every record have the same number of keys.
METHODS
The following methods are supported by DBI::ProfileData objects.
$prof = DBI::ProfileData->new(File => "dbi.prof")
$prof = DBI::ProfileData->new(Files => [ "dbi.prof.1", "dbi.prof.2" ])
Creates a a new DBI::ProfileData object. Takes either a single file through the File option or a list of Files in an array ref. If
multiple files are specified then the header data from the first file is used.
$copy = $prof->clone();
Clone a profile data set creating a new object.
$header = $prof->header();
Returns a reference to a hash of header values. These are the key value pairs included in the header section of the DBI::ProfileDumper
data format. For example:
$header = {
Path => '[ DBIprofile_Statement, DBIprofile_MethodName ]',
Program => 't/42profile_data.t',
};
Note that modifying this hash will modify the header data stored inside the profile object.
$nodes = $prof->nodes()
Returns a reference the sorted nodes array. Each element in the array is a single record in the data set. The first seven elements
are the same as the elements provided by DBI::Profile. After that each key is in a separate element. For example:
$nodes = [
[
2, # 0, count
0.0312958955764771, # 1, total duration
0.000490069389343262, # 2, first duration
0.000176072120666504, # 3, shortest duration
0.00140702724456787, # 4, longest duration
1023115819.83019, # 5, time of first event
1023115819.86576, # 6, time of last event
'SELECT foo FROM bar' # 7, key1
'execute' # 8, key2
# 6+N, keyN
],
# ...
];
Note that modifying this array will modify the node data stored inside the profile object.
$count = $prof->count()
Returns the number of items in the profile data set.
$prof->sort(field => "field")
$prof->sort(field => "field", reverse => 1)
Sorts data by the given field. Available fields are:
longest
total
count
shortest
The default sort is greatest to smallest, which is the opposite of the normal Perl meaning. This, however, matches the expected behav-
ior of the dbiprof frontend.
$count = $prof->exclude(key2 => "disconnect")
$count = $prof->exclude(key2 => "disconnect", case_sensitive => 1)
$count = $prof->exclude(key1 => qr/^SELECT/i)
Removes records from the data set that match the given string or regular expression. This method modifies the data in a permanent
fashion - use clone() first to maintain the original data after exclude(). Returns the number of nodes left in the profile data set.
$count = $prof->match(key2 => "disconnect")
$count = $prof->match(key2 => "disconnect", case_sensitive => 1)
$count = $prof->match(key1 => qr/^SELECT/i)
Removes records from the data set that do not match the given string or regular expression. This method modifies the data in a perma-
nent fashion - use clone() first to maintain the original data after match(). Returns the number of nodes left in the profile data
set.
$Data = $prof->Data()
Returns the same Data hash structure as seen in DBI::Profile. This structure is not sorted. The nodes() structure probably makes more
sense for most analysis.
$text = $prof->format($nodes->[0])
Formats a single node into a human-readable block of text.
$text = $prof->report(number => 10)
Produces a report with the given number of items.
