This project has been archived, because CRAN doesn't seem to support Go on their infrastructure. The (jointprof) package contains a function that helps discovering the pprof utility which this project packages.
This is the pprof tool for visualization and analysis of profiling data, wrapped as an R package. It exports a single function which returns the path to the executable file.
The pprof binary can also be installed via go get github.com/google/pprof. However, some operating systems have an incompatible version of pprof on the PATH by default. This R package offers an easy-to-use robust alternative.
You can install pprof from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("r-prof/r-pprof")invisible(processx::run(
pprof::get_pprof_pkg_path(),
"-help",
echo = TRUE,
error_on_status = FALSE
))
#> usage:
#>
#> Produce output in the specified format.
#>
#> pprof <format> [options] [binary] <source> ...
#>
#> Omit the format to get an interactive shell whose commands can be used
#> to generate various views of a profile
#>
#> pprof [options] [binary] <source> ...
#>
#> Omit the format and provide the "-http" flag to get an interactive web
#> interface at the specified host:port that can be used to navigate through
#> various views of a profile.
#>
#> pprof -http [host]:[port] [options] [binary] <source> ...
