TimerJS

TimerJS lets you give a timeout to your callback.

In some cases, a callback may be called only after inner callbacks resolutions, when you are using async.each() for instance. I found it would be clever to be able to give a timeout to the inner callbacks in order to ensure your script will not run "forever" if a inner callback takes too much time to be called.

TimerJS works in the browser and in NodeJS.

All you have to do is include the script, and then

asyncFunction(arg, timer(callback, 100));

The callback will be called after 100 milliseconds, if it have been not called yet.

To use in browser environement

<script type='javascript' src='timerJS.js' />

In nodeJS

Installation

npm install timerJS

Then

var timer = require('timerJS');
