# salt.output.profile

## Display profiling data in a table format

Show profile data for returners that would normally show a highstate output.

CLI Example:

    salt '*' state.apply something --out=profile

Attempt to output the returns of state.sls and state.highstate as a table of names, modules and durations that looks somewhat like the following:

    name                mod.fun                duration (ms)
    --------------------------------------------------------
    I-fail-unless-stmt  other.function               -1.0000
    old-minion-config   grains.list_present           1.1200
    salt-data           group.present                48.3800
    /etc/salt/minion    file.managed                 63.1450

To get the above appearance, use settings something like these:

    out.table.separate_rows: False
    out.table.justify: left
    out.table.delim: '  '
    out.table.prefix: ''
    out.table.suffix: ''

salt.output.profile.output(data, **kwargs)

  Display the profiling data in a table format.
