Target-specific resource logging in targets pipeline

[koefoeden]

Hi Will!

This package looks super cool! Are you planning to add some functionality that will enable autometric::log_read() to report the target that was being run at the given timestamps, such that the appropriate amount of resources can be allocated subsequently for each target in the pipeline script? Or perhaps there is a quite straightforward way to do it currently that I do not realize?

I considered adding simple print statements indicating the beginning and end of each target, and somehow modifying the log_read()-function to reflect this in the table - but it would probably not be a pretty solution.

Thanks, I think I can make the integration smoother with #3.

As of autometric 0.0.5.9001 (dev), you can call autometric::log_phase_set(phase = targets::tar_name()) at the beginning of the target and then autometric::log_phase_reset() at the end. I plan to add this instrumentation directly into targets and crew.

Awesome - thanks for implementing this so quickly!

crew and targets now use log_phase_set() and log_phase_reset() to log the names of targets/tasks as phases.
