PerformanceObserver

PerformanceObserver()

Creates and returns a new PerformanceObserver object.

PerformanceObserver.supportedEntryTypes Read only

Returns an array of the entryType values supported by the user agent.

PerformanceObserver.observe()

Specifies the set of entry types to observe. The performance observer's callback function will be invoked when performance entry is recorded for one of the specified entryTypes.

PerformanceObserver.disconnect()

Stops the performance observer callback from receiving performance entries.

PerformanceObserver.takeRecords()

Returns the current list of performance entries stored in the performance observer, emptying it out.

The following example creates a PerformanceObserver watching for "mark" (PerformanceMark) and "measure" (PerformanceMeasure) events. The perfObserver callback provides a list (PerformanceObserverEntryList) which allows you to get observed performance entries.

function perfObserver(list, observer) {
  list.getEntries().forEach((entry) =>  {
    if (entry.entryType === "mark") {
      console.log(`${entry.name}'s startTime: ${entry.startTime}`);
    };
    if (entry.entryType === "measure") {
      console.log(`${entry.name}'s duration: ${entry.duration}`);
    };
  });
}
const observer = new PerformanceObserver(perfObserver);
observer.observe({ entryTypes: ["measure", "mark"] });
