NAME

Tapper::Reports::Receiver::Level2::BenchmarkAnything - Tapper - Level2 receiver plugin to forward BenchmarkAnything data

submit

Extract BenchmarkAnything data from a report and submit them to a BenchmarkAnything store.

ABOUT

Level 2 receivers are other data receivers besides Tapper to which data is forwarded when a report is arriving at the Tapper::Reports::Receiver.

One example is to track benchmark values.

By convention, for BenchmarkAnything the data is already prepared in the TAP report like this:

 ok - measurements
   ---
   BenchmarkAnythingData:
   - NAME: example.prove.duration
     VALUE: 2.19
   - NAME: example.some.metric
     VALUE: 7.00
   - NAME: example.some.other.metric
     VALUE: 1
   ...
 ok some other TAP stuff

I.e., it requires a key BenchmarkAnythingData and the contained array consists of chunks with keys that a BenchmarkAnything backend store is expecting.

CONFIG

To activate that level2 receiver you should have an entry like this in your tapper.cfg:

 receiver:
   level2:
     BenchmarkAnything:
       # actual benchmark entries
       benchmark_entries_path: //data/BenchmarkAnythingData
       # optional meta info to merge into each chunk of benchmark entries
       additional_metainfo_path: //data/PlatformDescription
       # whether that metainfo should also stored into the benchmark store
       store_metainfo_as_benchmarks: 0
       # whether to skip that plugin
       disabled: 0
