Struct TickMsg 

pub struct TickMsg {
    pub id: i64,
    /* private fields */
}

Message sent on every stopwatch tick to increment the elapsed time.

This message is generated automatically by the stopwatch at regular intervals (determined by the interval field) when the stopwatch is running. The message carries timing information and anti-flooding protection.

Message Flow

1. Stopwatch starts → generates first TickMsg
2. TickMsg processed → elapsed time incremented → next TickMsg scheduled
3. Continues until stopwatch is stopped or reset

Examples

You typically don’t create TickMsg instances manually, but you may need to handle them in your application’s update loop:

use bubbletea_widgets::stopwatch::{TickMsg, Model};
use bubbletea_rs::Msg;

fn handle_message(stopwatch: &mut Model, msg: Msg) {
    if let Some(tick) = msg.downcast_ref::<TickMsg>() {
        println!("Tick from stopwatch ID: {}", tick.id);
    }
    stopwatch.update(msg);
}

Anti-flooding Protection

The tag field prevents message flooding by ensuring only the expected tick sequence is processed. Out-of-order or duplicate ticks are ignored.

Fields

id: i64

Unique identifier of the stopwatch that generated this tick.

Used to route messages to the correct stopwatch instance when multiple stopwatches are running in the same application.
