Asynchronous sleep with better time functions and typescript bindings
npm install sleepjs  
Asynchronus sleep functions with typescript support.
Install sleepjs with npm:
``bash`
npm install sleepjs
Or with yarn:
`bash`
yarn add sleepjs
The default function sleeps for a time given in milliseconds.
But also different sleep functions can be required.
The sleep timer can be awaited with async / await.
`javascript
const { sleep } = require('sleepjs')
const myFunction = async () => {
await sleep(500)
console.info('It is 500 ms later now')
}
myFunction()
`
The Promise returns the value of slept milliseconds when it resolves.
`javascript
const { sleepMinutes } = require('sleepjs')
function myFunction () {
return sleepMinutes(5)
.then(time => {console.info(${time} ms later)})
}
myFunction() // Will print: '300000 ms later'
`
Different sleep instances can be run and awaited concurrently with Promise.all.
`javascript
const { sleep } = require('sleepjs')
async function myFunction () {
await Promise.all([sleep(100), sleep(100), sleep(200)])
}
myFunction() // Will take only slightly more than 200 ms
`
Sleepjs includes several functions to wrap common sleep times:
`javascript`
const { sleep } = require('sleepjs')
const { sleepMilliseconds } = require('sleepjs') // Same as sleep
const { sleepSeconds } = require('sleepjs')
const { sleepMinutes } = require('sleepjs')
const { sleepHours } = require('sleepjs')
const { sleepDays } = require('sleepjs')
Import with typescript is also possible.
`typescript``
import {
sleep,
sleepMilliseconds,
sleepSeconds,
sleepMinutes,
sleepHours,
sleepDays,
} from 'sleepjs'
