Schedule work to be completed when the browser is idle.

Package Exports

  • nanoscheduler

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (nanoscheduler) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

nanoscheduler

npm version build status downloads js-standard-style

Schedule work to be completed when the user agent is idle. Weighs 270 bytes compressed.

Usage

var NanoScheduler = require('nanoscheduler')

var scheduler = NanoScheduler()
var i = 10000
while (i--) scheduler.push(() => console.log(`idle time! ${Date.now()}`))

Why?

Just like with window.requestAnimationFrame, it's much more efficient to share a single instance than to call it for each piece of work. There's a significant overhead when scheduling small amounts of work. This package allows sharing a scheduler as a singleton, which makes it particularly useful to be shared between multiple applications.

API

scheduler = NanoScheduler()

Create a new scheduler instance. The instance is shared as a singleton on window (if available).

scheduler.push(cb)

Push a callback into the scheduler, to be executed when the user agent is idle.

Installation

$ npm install nanoscheduler
