guidellm.benchmark.outputs.console

Console output formatter for generative benchmarker results.

This module provides console-based output formatting for benchmark reports, organizing metrics into structured tables that display request statistics, latency measurements, throughput data, and modality-specific metrics (text, image, video, audio). It uses the Console utility to render multi-column tables with proper alignment and formatting for terminal display.

ConsoleBenchmarkOutputArgs

Bases: BenchmarkOutputArgs

Base class for console benchmark output arguments.

Source code in src/guidellm/benchmark/outputs/console.py
@BenchmarkOutputArgs.register("console")
class ConsoleBenchmarkOutputArgs(BenchmarkOutputArgs):
    """Base class for console benchmark output arguments."""

    kind: Literal["console"] = Field(
        default="console",
        description="The kind of output.",
    )

ConsoleTableColumn dataclass

Data structure for a single console table column.

Stores column metadata (group, name, units, type) and accumulated values for rendering formatted table output with proper type-specific formatting and precision.

Attributes:

Name Type Description
group str | None

Optional group header for related columns

name str | None

Column name displayed in header

units str | None

Optional unit label for numeric values

type_ Literal['number', 'text', 'timestamp']

Data type determining formatting (number, text, timestamp)

precision int

Decimal precision for numeric formatting

values list[str | float | int | None]

Accumulated values for this column across rows
