Module Async_kernel__.Clock_ns

run_at time f a runs f a as soon as possible after time. If time is in the past, then run_at will immediately schedule a job t that will run f a. In no situation will run_at actually call f itself. The call to f will always be in another job.

run_after is like run_at, except that one specifies a time span rather than an absolute time.

at time returns a deferred d that will become determined as soon as possible after time

after is like at, except that one specifies a time span rather than an absolute time. If you set up a lot of after events at the beginning of your program they will trigger at the same time. Use Time.Span.randomize to even them out.

with_timeout span d returns a deferred that will become determined after either span elapses or d is determined, returning either `Timeout or `Result depending on which one succeeded first. At the time the returned deferred becomes determined, both things may have happened, in which case `Result is given preference.

at_varying_intervals f ?stop returns a stream whose next element becomes determined by calling f () and waiting for that amount of time, and then looping to determine subsequent elements. The stream will end after stop becomes determined.

at_intervals interval ?start ?stop returns a stream whose elements will become determined at nonnegative integer multiples of interval after the start time, until stop becomes determined:

        start + 0 * interval
        start + 1 * interval
        start + 2 * interval
        start + 3 * interval
        ...

Note that only elements that are strictly in the future ever become determined. In particular, if start is not in the future, or start is not provided, then there will be no element before the interval has passed.

If the interval is too small or the CPU is too loaded, at_intervals will skip until the next upcoming multiple of interval after start.

every' ?start ?stop span f runs f () every span amount of time starting when start becomes determined and stopping when stop becomes determined. every waits until the result of f () becomes determined before waiting for the next span.

It is guaranteed that if stop becomes determined, even during evaluation of f, then f will not be called again by a subsequent iteration of the loop.

It is an error for span to be nonpositive.

With ~continue_on_error:true, when f asynchronously raises, iteration continues. With ~continue_on_error:false, if f asynchronously raises, then iteration only continues when the result of f becomes determined.

Exceptions raised by f are always sent to monitor in effect when every' was called, even with ~continue_on_error:true.

If finished is supplied, every' will fill it once all of the following become determined: start, stop, and the result of the final call to f.

every ?start ?stop span f is every' ?start ?stop span (fun () -> f (); return ()).

run_at_intervals' ?start ?stop span f runs f() at increments of start + i * span for nonnegative integers i, until stop becomes determined. run_at_intervals' waits for the result of f to become determined before waiting for the next interval.

Exceptions raised by f are always sent to monitor in effect when run_at_intervals' was called, even with ~continue_on_error:true.

run_at_intervals ?start ?stop ?continue_on_error span f is equivalent to:

        run_at_intervals' ?start ?stop ?continue_on_error span
          (fun () -> f (); return ())
