npm install time-counterDead simple count down or count up timer for node and in browser using clientmodules or browserify.
For a standalone version that bundles required modules just use time-counter.bundled.js.
This isn't meant to be scientifically amazingly perfect. Because we're just looping and comparing with a start time at a set interval. This approach is a bit flawed because it's impacted by the event loop, etc. But it's good enough for the vast majority of regular web app uses.
``
npm install time-counter
`js
// creating a count up timer
var Timer = require('time-counter'),
log = console.log.bind(console);
var countUpTimer = new Timer();
// log out time, could also be used to
// write to DOM of course.
countUpTimer.on('change', log);
// start it
countUpTimer.start();
// creating a countdown timer
var countDown = new Timer({
direction: 'down',
startValue: '1:00' // one minute
});
// log it out every time it's updated
countDown.on('change', log);
countDown.on('end', function () {
console.log('Blastoff!');
});
`
Default values shown:
`js`
{
direction: 'up', // can also be 'down'
startValue: 0, // starting point, useful for 'down' but works for up too
targetValue: '', // i.e. "1:00:00" is one hour, shoudl be in format: hours:minutes:seconds
interval: 50, // how fast to run the loop and determine if the time has changed
showHours: false // whether or not to show hours if they're empty
}
To build bundled version run node build` at project root.
