It wraps code sections with context managers that record timing and metadata, then writes the results to a JSON file compatible with both tools.\n\nThe library is designed to be small enough to vendor into other projects and has near-zero overhead when disabled (by passing file=None). It supports basic distributed tracing through manual process coordination\u2014you manage unique identifiers and file names across child processes, then merge traces afterward. It depends only on psutil and is licensed under MIT, making it suitable for inclusion in other projects.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need lightweight Chrome trace format output for profiling. The low install friction, permissive MIT license, active maintenance, and minimal dependencies make it practical for inclusion in projects. Not suitable if you need line-level profiling (consider viztracer instead) or distributed tracing out of the box."},"id":"keke","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/keke","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/keke.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/keke/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-02-17","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"keke","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Easy profiling in chrome trace format"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":563620,"position":5978,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.0"}
