Lib timer

Timer library.

Based on hump.timer.

Functions

new ()	Create new timer instance.
addPeriodic (delay, func[, count])	Schedule a function that is called periodically.
doFor (delta, func[, after])	Execute a function every frame until time expires.
cancel (handle)	Cancel a timer.
clear ()	Cancel all timers.
update (dt)	Update the timer.
tween (duration, subject, target[, method='linear'][, after], ...)	Create a tween.

Functions

new ()

Create new timer instance. By default all functions are called on a single global instance.

Returns:

Timer timer instance

Usage:

 local specialTimer = timer.new()
 specialTimer.add(10, function() print("yay!") end) -- print "yay!" after 10 seconds
 specialTimer.update( dt ) -- call this every frame

addPeriodic (delay, func[, count])

Schedule a function that is called periodically. Add a function that will be called count times every delay seconds. If count is omitted, the function will be called until it returns false or timer.cancel or timer.clear is called.

Parameters:

• delay number seconds between consecutive calls
• func function function to execute periodically
• count number number of times the function is called (optional)

Returns:

table timer handle

doFor (delta, func[, after])

Execute a function every frame until time expires. Optionally runs after() once delta seconds have passed.

Parameters:

• delta number number of seconds that the function func will be called
• func function function to execute every frame
• after function function to execute once delta seconds expired (optional)

cancel (handle)

Cancel a timer.

Parameters:

• handle table timer handle

clear ()

Cancel all timers.

update (dt)

Update the timer.

Parameters:

• dt number delta time

tween (duration, subject, target[, method='linear'][, after], ...)

Create a tween. Readh the hump.timer tween section for more information.

Parameters:

• duration number duration of tween
• subject table object to be tweened
• target table target values
• method string tweening method (default 'linear')
• after function function to execute after the tween finished (optional)
• ... mixed additional arguments for the tweening function (amplitude, period or bounciness)
