/**
|
* The `trace_events` module provides a mechanism to centralize tracing information
|
* generated by V8, Node.js core, and userspace code.
|
*
|
* Tracing can be enabled with the `--trace-event-categories` command-line flag
|
* or by using the `trace_events` module. The `--trace-event-categories` flag
|
* accepts a list of comma-separated category names.
|
*
|
* The available categories are:
|
*
|
* * `node`: An empty placeholder.
|
* * `node.async_hooks`: Enables capture of detailed `async_hooks` trace data.
|
* The `async_hooks` events have a unique `asyncId` and a special `triggerId` `triggerAsyncId` property.
|
* * `node.bootstrap`: Enables capture of Node.js bootstrap milestones.
|
* * `node.console`: Enables capture of `console.time()` and `console.count()`output.
|
* * `node.dns.native`: Enables capture of trace data for DNS queries.
|
* * `node.environment`: Enables capture of Node.js Environment milestones.
|
* * `node.fs.sync`: Enables capture of trace data for file system sync methods.
|
* * `node.perf`: Enables capture of `Performance API` measurements.
|
* * `node.perf.usertiming`: Enables capture of only Performance API User Timing
|
* measures and marks.
|
* * `node.perf.timerify`: Enables capture of only Performance API timerify
|
* measurements.
|
* * `node.promises.rejections`: Enables capture of trace data tracking the number
|
* of unhandled Promise rejections and handled-after-rejections.
|
* * `node.vm.script`: Enables capture of trace data for the `vm` module's`runInNewContext()`, `runInContext()`, and `runInThisContext()` methods.
|
* * `v8`: The `V8` events are GC, compiling, and execution related.
|
*
|
* By default the `node`, `node.async_hooks`, and `v8` categories are enabled.
|
*
|
* ```bash
|
* node --trace-event-categories v8,node,node.async_hooks server.js
|
* ```
|
*
|
* Prior versions of Node.js required the use of the `--trace-events-enabled`flag to enable trace events. This requirement has been removed. However, the`--trace-events-enabled` flag _may_ still be
|
* used and will enable the`node`, `node.async_hooks`, and `v8` trace event categories by default.
|
*
|
* ```bash
|
* node --trace-events-enabled
|
*
|
* # is equivalent to
|
*
|
* node --trace-event-categories v8,node,node.async_hooks
|
* ```
|
*
|
* Alternatively, trace events may be enabled using the `trace_events` module:
|
*
|
* ```js
|
* const trace_events = require('trace_events');
|
* const tracing = trace_events.createTracing({ categories: ['node.perf'] });
|
* tracing.enable(); // Enable trace event capture for the 'node.perf' category
|
*
|
* // do work
|
*
|
* tracing.disable(); // Disable trace event capture for the 'node.perf' category
|
* ```
|
*
|
* Running Node.js with tracing enabled will produce log files that can be opened
|
* in the [`chrome://tracing`](https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/trace-event-profiling-tool) tab of Chrome.
|
*
|
* The logging file is by default called `node_trace.${rotation}.log`, where`${rotation}` is an incrementing log-rotation id. The filepath pattern can
|
* be specified with `--trace-event-file-pattern` that accepts a template
|
* string that supports `${rotation}` and `${pid}`:
|
*
|
* ```bash
|
* node --trace-event-categories v8 --trace-event-file-pattern '${pid}-${rotation}.log' server.js
|
* ```
|
*
|
* The tracing system uses the same time source
|
* as the one used by `process.hrtime()`.
|
* However the trace-event timestamps are expressed in microseconds,
|
* unlike `process.hrtime()` which returns nanoseconds.
|
*
|
* The features from this module are not available in `Worker` threads.
|
* @experimental
|
* @see [source](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v17.0.0/lib/trace_events.js)
