window.performance.timing deprecated-CodePudding

I want to monitor the performance of my application.

For that I discovered window.performance.timing.

It works well but the function is deprecated.

So I replaced it with this.window.performance.getEntriesByType('navigation'); but I don't have the same result:

with window.performance.timing I receive :

connectEnd: 1658410230499,
connectStart: 1658410230499,
domComplete: 1658410232018,

loadEventEnd: 1658410232047,
loadEventStart: 1658410232018,

secureConnectionStart: 0,
unloadEventEnd: 1658410230732,
unloadEventStart: 1658410230732,

and with performance.getEntriesByType('navigation') I receive :

I understand that for window.performance.timing it's a timestamp format but for performance.getEntriesByType('navigation') I do not understand the type of format.

Do you have an idea ?

CodePudding user response：

window.performance.timing [MDN]
returns time values in milliseconds (probably long integer) since the UNIX epoch. its an absolute timestamp. If a returned value is zero (like redirectEnd), the event/point has not been triggered for this page. You can convert that value to a datetime value by passing it to the Date constructor.

<< 1658497148266

window.performance.get [MDN]
returns most of the values as an instance of DOMHighResTimeStamp [MDN]. Those timestamps are relative to the originTime of the window [MDN]. The origin time is a value in milliseconds since the unix epoch and you can get the origin time by window.performance.originTime.
