MODULE SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
EXPORTS
make_pattern(RawPattern) -> TracePattern
Types:
Makes a trace pattern suitable to feed change_pattern/1
Min detail level deactivates tracing of calls to et:trace_me/4,5
Max detail level activates tracing of all calls to et:trace_me/4,5
integer(X) detail level activates tracing of all calls to et:trace_me/4,5 whose detail level argument is lesser than X.
See also erlang:trace_pattern/2 for more info about its match_spec()
Types:
Activates/deactivates tracing by changing the current trace pattern.
min detail level deactivates tracing of calls to et:trace_me/4,5
max detail level activates tracing of all calls to et:trace_me/4,5
integer(X) detail level activates tracing of all calls to et:trace_me/4,5 whose detail level argument is lesser than X.
An empty match spec deactivates tracing of calls to et:trace_me/4,5
Other match specs activates tracing of calls to et:trace_me/4,5 accordingly with erlang:trace_pattern/2.
parse_event(Mod, ValidTraceData) -> false | true | {true, Event}
Types:
Transforms trace data and makes an event record out of it.
See erlang:trace/3 for more info about the semantics of the trace data.
An event record consists of the following fields:
- detail_level
Noise has a high level as opposed to essentials.
- trace_ts
Time when the trace was generated. Same as event_ts if omitted in trace data.
- event_ts
Time when the event record was created.
- from
From actor, such as sender of a message.
- to
To actor, such as receiver of message.
- label
Label intended to provide a brief event summary.
- contents
All nitty gritty details of the event.
See et:trace_me/4and et:trace_me/5 for details.
Returns:
- {true, Event}
where Event is an #event{} record representing the trace data
- true
means that the trace data already is an event record and that it is valid as it is. No transformation is needed.
- false
means that the trace data is uninteresting and should be dropped
