The More accurate timer using Web Worker
npm install ww-timersetTimeout or setInterval methods are used. However, due to the nature of JavaScript's execution model, achieving precise time measurement can be challenging.JavaScript's asynchronous functions are subject to delays depending on the number of tasks the web browser is executing. This can result in the setTimeout and setInterval functions being deprioritized in the event loop, which, while generally inconsequential for standard functionality, can introduce critical errors in timing accuracy for timer implementations.
sh
npm
npm install ww-timer
yarn
yarn add ww-timer
`Quick Start
javascript
// Import WW Timer
import WWTimer from 'ww-timer';// Create a new timer
const timer = new WWTimer(() => {
console.log('Timer tick');
}, 2000);
// Start the timer with a callback function
timer.start();
// Pause the timer
timer.pause();
// Destroy the timer instance
timer.destroy();
`API Reference
- : Creates a new WWTimer instance with a callback function to be executed at a specified interval.
- start(): Starts the timer. The timer will call the callback function at the interval specified during the instance creation.
- pause(): Pauses the timer. The timer can be resumed by calling start() again.
- destroy()`: Destroys the timer instance and frees up resources. After calling this method, the timer instance cannot be used or restarted.
