Package Exports

timeout-refresh

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 (timeout-refresh) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

timeout-refresh

Efficiently refresh a timer

npm install timeout-refresh

Uses timeout.refresh in Node 10 and require('timers') in older versions. In the browser a basic clearTimeout + setTimeout is used since no other method exists

Usage

const timeout = require('timeout-refresh')

const to = timeout(100, function () {
  console.log('Timed out!')
})

const i = setInterval(function () {
  // refresh every 50ms
  to.refresh()
}, 50)

setTimeout(function () {
  // cancel the refresh after 500ms
  clearInterval(i)
  setTimeout(function () {
    console.log('Should have timed out now')
  }, 200)
}, 500)

API

`to = timeout(ms, ontimeout, [context])`

Make a new refreshable timeout.

If you pass context, it will be set as this when calling ontimeout.

`to.refresh()`

Refresh the timeout.

`to.destroy()`

Destroy the timeout. Not needed if ontimeout is triggered
