[SOLVED] how to set timer for each script that runs

Issue

Dear friend and colleges

it's lovely to be here in stack overflow the best cool site

Under /tmp/scripts we have around 128 scripts that perform many tests

As

verify_dns.sh
verify_ip.sh
verify_HW.sh

And so on

we decided to run all scripts under the current folder - /tmp/scfipt with the following code

script_name=` find /tmp/scripts  -maxdepth 1  -type f -name "verify_*"   -exec basename {} \; `

for i in $script_name
do
  echo running the script - $i
  /tmp/scripts/$i
done

So output is like this

running the script - verify_dns.sh
running the script - verify_ip.sh
.
.

What we want to add - is the ability to print also the time that script runs

As the following example

running the script - verify_dns.sh   - 16.3 Sec
running the script - verify_ip.sh    - 2.5 Sec
.
.

My question , how we can add this ability in my code ?

Note - os version - is redhat 7.2

Solution

for calculating seconds you can use

SECONDS=0 ; 
your_bash_script ; 
echo $SECONDS

for more sensitive calculation

start=$(date +'%s%N') 
your_shell_script.sh
echo "It took $((($(date +'%s%N') - $start)/100000)) miliseconds"

for internal time function

time your_shell_script.sh

Edit: example provided for OP

for i in $script_name
do
  echo running the script - $i
  start=$(date +'%s%N')
  /tmp/scripts/$i
  echo "It took $((($(date +'%s%N') - $start)/100000)) miliseconds"
done

---

for i in $script_name
do
  echo running the script - $i
  time /tmp/scripts/$i
done
