fluent-time

fluent-time.js

fluent time works as a wrapper around Date, setTimeout and setInterval and aims to provide a simpler api for them.

installation

coming very soon...

accessing the api.

we don't want to pollute your global/module scope without asking, but it gives the best looking fluent code. So you can do it yourself, like this;

node.js

var every = require('fluent-time').every;

clientside

var every = FluentTime.every;

intervals

the interval handling in

every(5).seconds(function() {
  // code...
});

every(4).hours().and(2).minutes(function() {
  // code...
});

every(5).minutes(function(interval) {
  if(someCondition) {
    interval.skip(2); // skip the next two executions.
  }
});

every(5).seconds(function(interval) {
  interval.times; // will be a number of how many times the interval has occured.
});

timeouts

// runs the provided function after 10 seconds
after(10).seconds(function() {
  
});
