React hooks for intervals.
MIT License
This package provides React hooks for running code at intervals.
npm install interval-hooks
# or
yarn add interval-hooks
useInterval
The useInterval
hook will run a function at a specific interval.
useInterval(() => {
console.log('This runs every 5 seconds.');
}, 5000);
You can set the delay to null
to stop the interval from running.
useInterval(() => {
console.log("This won't run because the `delay` is null.");
}, null);
useSynchronizedInterval
The useSynchronizedInterval
hook is just like useInterval
, however it will run all functions with the same delay at the same time.
useSynchronizedInterval(() => {
console.log('These console logs will happen at the same time.');
}, 5000);
// wait 3 seconds...
useSynchronizedInterval(() => {
console.log('These console logs will happen at the same time.');
}, 5000);
Synchronized intervals are useful for calling functions that need to happen at the same time, like ticking clocks.
