Waits for a certain amount of time for an action to complete Designed to wait for a certain length of time, either linearly in 1 second steps, or exponentially, up to a maximum. Returns the output from the function once it completes successfully, along with the time taken to complete the command.
.. note:: If using the expo keyword, the returned elapsed time will be inaccurate as wait_for does not know the exact time that the function returned correctly, only that it returned correctly at last check.
.. code-block:: python
from wait_for import wait_for
class Incrementor(): value = 0
def i_sleep_a_lot(self):
time.sleep(.1)
self.value += 1
return self.value
incman = Incrementor() ec, tc = wait_for(incman.i_sleep_a_lot, fail_condition=0, delay=.05) print("Function output {} in time {} ".format(ec, tc))
