Class: Interval

Interval(msecs, itemProduceropt, waitforFinishProduction, maxNumTriggers, triggerInitially, enabled)

new Interval(msecs, itemProduceropt, waitforFinishProduction, maxNumTriggers, triggerInitially, enabled)

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Default Description
msecs Number
itemProducer producerHandler.<(T|Promise.<T>)> <optional>
 null Optional. Defaults to null. A function that produces an item that shall then be signaled by the scheduler. If the item is not of importance, then you may just supply an empty function or null (will be converted to an empty function then).
waitforFinishProduction Boolean true if true, the interval will be reset only when the itemProducer finished producing its item. If this is false, the interval will be reset right away if it elapses. This makes sense if producing an item takes considerable amounts of time.
maxNumTriggers Number the maximum amount of times this interval shall trigger. Supply a negative value or Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER to not limit this interval to any amount of occurrences.
triggerInitially Boolean if true, will trigger this interval right away, instead of waiting for the timeout to elapse once.
enabled Boolean if true, this Interval is enabled. Otherwise, its events are ignored until it get enabled.

Methods

finalize() → {this}

Additionally to finish(), this method also disables this Interval.

Returns:
this
Type
this

finish() → {this}

This method will ultimately set the number of occurences equal to the number of how many times this Interval should have been triggered. This leads to this Interval reporting that it is finished. Attempting to finish an unbounded Interval will throw an Error.
