CGI::A...Timing(3pm)

💖 CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup::Timing(3pm) — the manual, but make it make sense 💖

okay so bestie, real talk: this is the CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup::Timing page from the Perl docs, and it's lowkey iconic. It's the lil plugin that shows you the timing info for your cgiapp stages — like, where did all the seconds go?? 🕰️✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup::Timing — it shows timing information about cgiapp stages. that's it, that's the whole vibe. ⏱️💅

---

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 1.08 — yes, we're on 1.08, no cap.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

first you gotta load the plugins, like so:

use CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup;
use CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup::Timing;

then the rest of your application follows, and you just... live your life:

The rest of your application follows
...

aaand the output will look roughly like this — no guarantees it's pixel-perfect, but roughly:

Timings
Total runtime: 3.1178 sec.
Application started at: Thu Sep 22 02:55:35 2005

From                        To                              Time taken
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
init                        prerun                          0.107513 sec.
prerun                      before expensive operation      0.000371 sec.
before expensive operation  after expensive operation       3.006688 sec.
after expensive operation   load_tmpl(dp.html)              0.000379 sec.
load_tmpl(dp.html)          postrun                         0.002849 sec.

look at that table. it's giving receipts. 💅 the 3.006688 sec. between "before expensive operation" and "after expensive operation"? yeah that's the expensive operation being expensive. we love an honest queen. 😭🔥

---

🌸 ADD_TIMING 🌸

here's the fun part, bestie — you can add your own timing points inside your application by calling the hook at "devpopup_addtiming" with a short label. 🏷️✨

the table up there in the SYNOPSIS? yeah, that was created with exactly this code, character for character:

$self->call_hook('devpopup_addtiming', 'before expensive operation');
sleep 3;
$self->call_hook('devpopup_addtiming', 'after expensive operation');

see? sleep 3 — that's the whole reason that row is 3.006688 sec. and not 0.000371 sec.. mystery solved, detective 🕵️‍♀️🫶
