parsl.utils.Timer

class parsl.utils.Timer(callback: Callable, *args: Any, interval: float | int = 5, name: str | None = None)

This class will make a callback periodically, with a period specified by the interval parameter.

This is based on the following logic :

BEGIN (INTERVAL, THRESHOLD, callback) :
    start = current_time()

    while (current_time()-start < INTERVAL) :
         wait()
         break

    callback()

__init__(callback: Callable, *args: Any, interval: float | int = 5, name: str | None = None) → None

Initialize the Timer object. We start the timer thread here

KWargs:

• interval (int or float) : number of seconds between callback events

• name (str) : a base name to use when naming the started thread

Methods

__init__(callback, *args[, interval, name])	Initialize the Timer object.
close([timeout])	Merge the threads and terminate.
make_callback()	Makes the callback and resets the timer.

close(timeout: float | None = None) → None

Merge the threads and terminate.

make_callback() → None

Makes the callback and resets the timer.
