# Pauses for at least the specified duration. The actual pause duration depends # on the system. # # This only affects the current Elvish context. It does not affect any other # contexts that might be executing in parallel as a consequence of a command # such as [`peach`](). # # A duration can be a simple [number](language.html#number) (with optional # fractional value) without an explicit unit suffix, with an implicit unit of # seconds. # # A duration can also be a string written as a sequence of decimal numbers, # each with optional fraction, plus a unit suffix. For example, "300ms", # "1.5h" or "1h45m7s". Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", # "m", "h". # # Passing a negative duration causes an exception; this is different from the # typical BSD or GNU `sleep` command that silently exits with a success status # without pausing when given a negative duration. # # See the [Go documentation](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration) for # more information about how durations are parsed. # # Examples: # # ```elvish-transcript # ~> sleep 0.1 # sleeps 0.1 seconds # ~> sleep 100ms # sleeps 0.1 seconds # ~> sleep 1.5m # sleeps 1.5 minutes # ~> sleep 1m30s # sleeps 1.5 minutes # ~> sleep -1 # Exception: sleep duration must be >= zero # [tty 8], line 1: sleep -1 # ``` fn sleep {|duration| } # Runs the callable, and call `$on-end` with the duration it took, as a # number in seconds. If `$on-end` is `$nil` (the default), prints the # duration in human-readable form. # # If `$callable` throws an exception, the exception is propagated after the # on-end or default printing is done. # # If `$on-end` throws an exception, it is propagated, unless `$callable` has # already thrown an exception. # # Example: # # ```elvish-transcript # ~> time { sleep 1 } # 1.006060647s # ~> time { sleep 0.01 } # 1.288977ms # ~> var t = '' # ~> time &on-end={|x| set t = $x } { sleep 1 } # ~> put $t # ▶ (num 1.000925004) # ~> time &on-end={|x| set t = $x } { sleep 0.01 } # ~> put $t # ▶ (num 0.011030208) # ``` # # See also [`benchmark`](). fn time {|&on-end=$nil callable| } # Runs `$callable` repeatedly, and reports statistics about how long each run # takes. # # If the `&on-end` callback is not given, `benchmark` prints the average, # standard deviation, minimum and maximum of the time it took to run # `$callback`, and the number of runs. If the `&on-end` callback is given, # `benchmark` instead calls it with a map containing these metrics, keyed by # `avg`, `stddev`, `min`, `max` and `runs`. Each duration value (i.e. all # except `runs`) is given as the number of seconds. # # The number of runs is controlled by `&min-runs` and `&min-time`. The # `$callable` is run at least `&min-runs` times, **and** when the total # duration is at least `&min-time`. # # The `&min-runs` option must be a non-negative integer within the range of the # machine word. # # The `&min-time` option must be a string representing a non-negative duration, # specified as a sequence of decimal numbers with a unit suffix (the numbers # may have fractional parts), such as "300ms", "1.5h" and "1h45m7s". Valid time # units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h". # # If `&on-run-end` is given, it is called after each call to `$callable`, with # the time that call took, given as the number of seconds. # # If `$callable` throws an exception, `benchmark` terminates and propagates the # exception after the `&on-end` callback (or the default printing behavior) # finishes. The duration of the call that throws an exception is not passed to # `&on-run-end`, nor is it included when calculating the statistics for # `&on-end`. If the first call to `$callable` throws an exception and `&on-end` # is `$nil`, nothing is printed and any `&on-end` callback is not called. # # If `&on-run-end` is given and throws an exception, `benchmark` terminates and # propagates the exception after the `&on-end` callback (or the default # printing behavior) finishes, unless `$callable` has already thrown an # exception # # If `&on-end` throws an exception, the exception is propagated, unless # `$callable` or `&on-run-end` has already thrown an exception. # # Example: # # ```elvish-transcript # ~> benchmark { } # 98ns ± 382ns (min 0s, max 210.417µs, 10119226 runs) # ~> benchmark &on-end={|m| put $m[avg]} { } # ▶ (num 9.8e-08) # ~> benchmark &on-run-end={|d| echo $d} { sleep 0.3 } # 0.301123625 # 0.30123775 # 0.30119075 # 0.300629166 # 0.301260333 # 301.088324ms ± 234.298µs (min 300.629166ms, max 301.260333ms, 5 runs) # ``` # # See also [`time`](). fn benchmark {|&min-runs=5 &min-time=1s &on-end=$nil &on-run-end=$nil callable| }
