clock-time

Introduction

Provide sleep(secs) / time_s() functions. Fix overflow bugs in CPython implementation so far (v3.14.0a1).

sleep(secs)

Use clock_nanosleep() with CLOCK_MONOTONIC to sleep. So that the sleep is not affected by system date/time jumps.

On CPython 3.11+, time.sleep() <https://docs.python.org/3/library/time.html#time.sleep>_ function already use this method.

time_s()

Return time as an integer number of seconds since the epoch <https://docs.python.org/3/library/time.html#epoch>_.

Usage

Only provide source code distribution, user need to install the build toolchain. It can't be compiled on platforms without clock_nanosleep().

.. sourcecode:: python

try:
    from clock_time import sleep, time_s
except ImportError:
    from time import sleep, time_ns
    def time_s():
        return time_ns() // 1_000_000_000

sleep(secs)
t = time_s()
