Module glean.metrics.timespan

Classes

class TimespanMetricType (disabled, category, lifetime, name, send_in_pings, time_unit)

This implements the developer facing API for recording timespan metrics.

Instances of this class type are automatically generated by load_metrics(), allowing developers to record values that were previously registered in the metrics.yaml file.

The timespan API exposes the TimespanMetricType.start(), TimespanMetricType.stop() and TimespanMetricType.cancel() methods.
