timeout-exec

Timeout Manager for control executions

Install

$ npm install timeout-exec

Usage

// Example 1:
import Timeout from 'timeout-exec';
// Note if use in ES5
// var Timeout = require('timeout-exec').default;

const timeouts = new Timeout();

const run1 = timeouts.timer(1000);
run1.execute(() => (console.log('first run')));
// Console.log: [first run]

const run2 = timeouts
	.timer(2000)
	.execute(() => (console.log('second run')));
// Console.log: [second run]


// Function will not be called due to clear()
const run3 = timeouts
	.timer(3000)
	.execute(() => (console.log('third run')));
run3.clear();

// Example 2:
const timeouts = new Timeout();
const run1 = timeouts.timer(2000);
run1.execute(() => (console.log('time run')));

const run2 = timeouts
	.interval(1000)
	.execute(() => (console.log('interval run')));

setTimeout(() => {
	timeouts.destroy();
}, 4000);

// Console.log: [interval run]
// Console.log: [time run]
// Console.log: [interval run]
// Console.log: [interval run]
// Console.log: [interval run]
// --- timeouts destroyed

API

const timeouts = new Timeout();

Returns an instance of execution manager

// setTimeout

timeouts.timer(ms: number, key: string = DEFAULT_KEY)

Return a decorated execute and clear for setTimeout call

ms

Type: number Milliseconds before timing out.

key

Type: string|undefined Default: 'no_name' Key for store in private sandbox by timeoutId.

You could for example retry:

const timeouts = new Timeout();
const run1 = timeouts.timer(2000, 'SOME_KEY').execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));
const run2 = timeouts.timer(3000, 'SOME_KEY').execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));

timeouts.clearKey('SOME_KEY'); // will clear all timers with 'SOME_KEY' key;
// same as
run1.clear();
run2.clear();

// setInterval

timeouts.interval(ms: number, key: string = DEFAULT_KEY)

Return a decorated execute and clear for setIterval call

You could for example retry:

const timeouts = new Timeout();
const timer1 = timeouts.timer(5000, 'SOME_KEY').execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));
const interval1 = timeouts.interval(2000, 'SOME_KEY').execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));
const interval2 = timeouts.interval(3000, 'SOME_KEY').execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));

timeouts.clearKey('SOME_KEY'); // will clear all timers and intervals with 'SOME_KEY' key;
// same as
timer1.clear();
interval1.clear();
interval2.clear();

timeouts.clearKey(key: string = DEFAULT_KEY)

Clear all executions with specified key

key

Type: string|undefined Default: 'no_name'

timeouts.destroy()

Clear all executions within instance

You could for example retry:

const timeouts = new Timeout();
const key1 = timeouts.timer(5000, 'KEY1').execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));
const key_empty = timeouts.interval(2000).execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));
const key2 = timeouts.interval(3000, 'KEY2').execute(() => (console.log(new Date())));

timeouts.destroy(); // will clear all timers and intervals for all keys
// same as
key1.clear();
key_empty.clear();
key2.clear();
