rtss annotates its output with relative durations between consecutive lines and
since program start.
It can be used as a filter in a pipeline:
-% cargo build --release 2>&1 | rtss
274.1ms 274.1ms | Compiling libc v0.2.40
1.50s 1.22s | Compiling memchr v2.0.1
2.28s 780.8ms | Compiling rtss v0.5.0 (file:///home/freaky/code/rtss)
5.18s 2.90s | Finished release [optimized] target(s) in 5.17 secs
5.18s exit code: 0
It can also directly run commands, annotating both stdout and stderr with durations.
stdin is passed through to the child process, and its exit code will become rtss'
own exit code:
``` -% rtss sh -c "echo foo; echo bar; sleep 1; echo moo >&2; sleep 1; echo baz; exit 64" 1.7ms 1.7ms | foo 1.7ms | bar 1.00s 1.00s # moo 2.03s 2.03s | baz 2.03s exit code: 64 zsh: exit 64 rtss sh -c
-% rtss sh -c "echo foo; echo bar; sleep 1; echo moo >&2; sleep 1; echo baz; exit 64" 2>/dev/null 1.9ms 1.9ms | foo 1.9ms | bar 2.05s 2.04s | baz 2.05s exit code: 64 zsh: exit 64 rtss sh -c 2> /dev/null ```
Blank durations indicate lines were read in a single read().
The core of rtss — an io::Write implementation with timestamped output, a function
to copy one IO to another using it, and one to pretty-print Durations — is exposed
as a library for use in other programs. Its interface should be considered unstable
until version 1.
If you have Cargo installed you can install the latest release with:
cargo install rtss
You can also install the latest bleeding-edge version using:
cargo install --git https://github.com/Freaky/rtss.git
Alternatively you can clone and build manually without installing:
git clone https://github.com/Freaky/rtss.git &&
cd rtss &&
cargo build --release &&
target/release/rtss echo It works
rtss was inspired by Kevin Burke's tss.
Both are basically trendier versions of ts from moreutils.
