🔥 An easy way to calculate the 'impact' of running a task in Node.JS


Coded with ❤️ by Simone Primarosa.

## Synopsis

Sympact runs a script and profiles its execution time, CPU usage, and memory usage. Sympact then returns an execution report containing the averages of the results.

Do you believe that this is *useful*?
Has it *saved you time*?
Or maybe you simply *like it*?
If so, [show your appreciation with a Star ⭐️][start].

## How it works

sympact spawns a separate process and runs your script in an isolated
node process and then collects statistics about the system's resource used by
your script.

The data are collected using [pidusage][gh:pidusage] in combination with
[pidtree][gh:pidtree].
**The main difference between other projects is that sympact will also
"profile" processes spawned by your script or by any of its children.**

Finally a report of the samples taken is computed and returned to you.

## Install

```bash
npm install --save sympact
```

## Usage

```js
const impact = require('sympact');

const report = await impact(`
let r = 2;
let c = 10e7;
while (c--) r = Math.pow(r, r);
return r;
`, {interval: 125}); // 125 ms of sampling rate

console.log(report.times.execution.end - report.times.execution.start);
// => 2700 ms
console.log(report.stats.cpu.mean);
// => 90.45 % on my machine
console.log(report.stats.memory.mean);
// => 27903317.33 bytes on my machine
```

## CLI

sympact CLI

To make it more usable, a CLI is bundled with the package allowing for an aesthetically pleasing report.

```bash
npx sympact "console.log('Hello World')"
```

You can even require other files.
```bash
npx sympact "
const {spawn} = require('child_process');
let childno = 10;
let childs = [];
for (let i = 0; i < childno; i++) {
childs.push(spawn('node', ['-e', 'setInterval(()=>{let c=10e3;while(c--);},10)']));
}
let c = 10e6;
let m = {};
while (c--) m[c] = c;
for (let i = 0; i < childno; i++) {
childs[i].kill();
}
"
```


## Report object

## API

### sympact(code, [options]) ⇒ Promise.<Object>
Measures the impact of running a certain script on your system.
Monitors the cpu and memory usage of the whole tree of processes generated by
the script provided.

**Kind**: global function
**Returns**: Promise.<Object> - An object containing the results.
**Access**: public

| Param | Type | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| code | string | | The source code to test. |
| [options] | Object | | Optional configurations. |
| [options.interval] | number | 125 | Sampling interval in milliseconds. |
| [options.cwd] | string | "caller path" | CWD for the script. |
