BABELTRACE2-FILTER()                                    BABELTRACE2-FILTER()

NAME top

       babeltrace2-filter.utils.trimmer - Babeltrace 2's trimmer filter
       component class

DESCRIPTION top

       A Babeltrace 2 filter.utils.trimmer message iterator discards all the
       consumed messages with a time less than a given beginning time and
       greater than a given end time. It effectively “cuts”, or trims trace
       streams.

                       | flt.utils.trimmer |

           Messages -->@ in            out @--> Less messages
                       +-------------------+

       See babeltrace2-intro(7) to learn more about the Babeltrace 2 project
       and its core concepts.

       A filter.utils.trimmer message iterator makes its upstream message
       iterator seek the configured beginning time (see the begin parameter)
       before it starts to consume messages. This seeking operation can have
       an effect on the times of stream beginning, packet beginning,
       discarded events, and discarded packets messages so that they fall
       within the configured trimming time range.

       As such, when a filter.utils.trimmer message iterator consumes a
       message of which the time is greater than the configured end time
       (see the end parameter), it can alter the time of stream end, packet
       end, discarded events, and discarded packets messages so that they
       fall within the configured trimming time range.

       A filter.utils.trimmer message iterator requires that all the
       upstream messages it consumes have times, except for stream beginning
       and end messages, returning an error status otherwise.

INITIALIZATION PARAMETERS top

       begin=TIME [optional string or signed integer]
           Set the trimming time range’s beginning time to TIME.

           If TIME is a string, see below for its format. If TIME is a
           signed integer, the component converts it to a string and treats
           it as such.

           If you don’t specify this parameter, the component discards no
           events until the end of the trimming time range.

           The format of TIME when it’s a string is one of:

               YYYY-MM-DD HH:II[:SS[.NANO]]
               HH:II[:SS[.NANO]]
               [-]SEC[.NANO]

           YYYY
               4-digit year.

           MM
               2-digit month (January is 01).

           DD
               2-digit day.

           HH
               2-digit hour (24-hour format).

           II
               2-digit minute.

           SS
               2-digit second.

           NANO
               Nanoseconds (up to nine digits).

           SEC
               Seconds since origin.

           If TIME has no date information, then the message iterator uses
           the first upstream message’s time to determine the date.

       end=TIME [optional string or signed integer]
           Set the trimming time range’s end time to TIME.

           If TIME is a string, see the begin parameter for its format. If
           TIME is a signed integer, the component converts it to a string
           and treats it as such.

           If you don’t specify this parameter, the component discards no
           events from the beginning of the trimming time range.

       gmt=yes [optional boolean]
           Set the time zone of the begin and end parameters to GMT instead
           of the local time zone.
