Standalone Profiling
Skyline also supports standalone profiling (i.e. profiling from the command line like a traditional profiler). Standalone profiling is useful when you just want access to Skyline's profiling functionality. Skyline will save the profiling results (called a "report") into a SQLite database file that you can then query yourself. We describe the database schema for Skyline's run time and memory reports in the Run Time Report Format and Memory Report Format pages respectively.
Preparing Your Code
You do not need to do anything special to prepare your code for standalone profiling. You only need to write an entry point file just as if you were going to start an interactive profiling session. See the Getting Started page for an example of an entry point file.
Run Time Profiling
To have Skyline perform run time profiling, you use the skyline time
subcommand. In addition to the entry point file, you also need to specify the
file where you want Skyline to save the run time profiling report using the
--output or -o flag.
note
Just like when you use skyline interactive, you need to place your shell
inside the project root and you need to specify a relative path to your entry
point file.
Memory Profiling
Launching memory profiling is almost the same as launching run time profiling.
You just need to use skyline memory instead of skyline time.
