Line Profiler downloads statistics

A PyCharm Line Profiler plugin

This plugin uses the python line-profiler package to create and visualize line profiles into PyCharm. The following data is displayed inline at the corresponding code:

• % Time spent at line: colormapped and displayed numerically • Hits of line: displayed numerically • Time spent at line: displayed numerically • Time / hit spent at line: displayed numerically

Getting started

Profiling code with PyCharm Line Profiler is done in 3 steps:

• import line-profiler-pycharm decorator

Add the following import to the python files in which you want to profile functions:

from line_profiler_pycharm import profile

• decorate your functions

Decorate the functions you want to profile with the decorator:

@profile

def some_method():

some code you want to profile

• profile!

Execute with 'Line Profile' that is installed with this plugin

When the execution is finished, Line Profiler will visualize the profile automatically.

See the screenshots for examples. Helper package

As seen in 'Getting started', the plugin uses a helper package called 'line-profiler-pycharm'. The first time you profile your code with Line Profiler, the plugin will ask whether it should install this package into your python environment.

Alternatively you can install the package yourself with pip:

pip install line-profiler-pycharm
