Turtles

Turtles is a log-based performance profiler. Parse a log with the appropriate time information (see below) into a semicolon delimited DSV and then visualize it.

Requirements

• python2.7 2.7.6-8ubuntu0.2
• r-base 3.0.2-1ubuntu1
• r-base-core 3.2.2-1trusty0

Example

# turtles parse --parser=ursula_log_parser test.log > graph.csv
# turtles graph graph.csv
Wrote: profile.png
# eog profile.png

Parsers

Parsing is left as an exercise to the user. If there is a log you want to parse time data from to visualize th progression of events, please create it and then contribute it back to turtles. Your parser should:

1. Take a log as input
2. Produce a semicolon-delimited DSV file as output

Data File Format

The graphing library expects as input a semicolon-delimited DSV file with the following information:

event;start;end;label;color

• event - the thing being measured
• start - the start time of the event (format: "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%OS3")
• end - the end of the of the event (format: "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%OS3")
• label - the label you want printed next to the line segment for the event
• color - the color of the line segment for the event
