Utility class to simplify use of timers created by setTimeout
.
- Support for one-time (like
setTimeout
) or recurrent (likesetInterval
) timers. - It is possible to repeat action indefinitely (
recurrent
property), specified number of times (repeatQty
property) or depending on result of control function (repeatTest
property). - Time period (timeout) can be: a fixed value, a random value, an item selected from a list depending on action's execution number, or a value returned from specified function.
- Action that is called can be a function or an object specifying function and its call's context.
- Action result is saved in timer's field for further access.
- Timer's start time, stop time and action execution times are saved in
startTime
,stopTime
andexecuteTime
properties correspondingly.
var timer = new Timer({
period: [100, 200, 300, 400, 500, {start: 100, end: 500}],
repeatQty: 100,
passToAction: true,
action: function(tmr) {
console.log("#", tmr.getExecutionQty() 1, ":", new Date());
},
active: true
});
...
timer.stop();
