Trait esp_01::LongTimer

pub trait LongTimer {
    fn wait(&mut self) -> Result<(), Infallible>;
    fn start(&mut self, duration: Millisecond);
}

A countdown timer which nonblockingly waits until the specified countdown is completed. The countdown is started by calling start.

This trait is needed because embedded_hal currently does not have a standardised measure of time.

The implementation of this trait will depend on your HAL implementation, but here is a sample impl for the stm32f1xx_hal

struct LongTimer<T> {
    timer: Timer<T>,
    milliseconds_remaining: u32,
}

impl<T> LongTimer<T>
    where Timer<T>: CountDown<Time = Hertz> + Periodic
{
    pub fn new(timer: Timer<T>) -> Self {
        Self {
            timer,
            milliseconds_remaining: 0
        }
    }
    fn process_tick(&mut self) -> nb::Result<(), Infallible>{
        match self.milliseconds_remaining {
            0 => Ok(()),
            t @ 0..=1000 => {
                self.milliseconds_remaining = 0;
                self.timer.start(((1000. / t as f32) as u32).hz());
                Err(nb::Error::WouldBlock)
            }
            _ => {
                self.timer.start(1.hz());
                self.milliseconds_remaining -= 1000;
                Err(nb::Error::WouldBlock)
            }
        }
    }
}

impl<T> esp01::LongTimer for LongTimer<T>
    where Timer<T>: CountDown<Time = Hertz> + Periodic
{
    fn wait(&mut self) -> nb::Result<(), Infallible> {
        match self.timer.wait() {
            Ok(_) => self.process_tick(),
            Err(nb::Error::WouldBlock) => Err(nb::Error::WouldBlock),
            Err(_void) => unreachable!() // The void type can not exist
        }
    }
    fn start(&mut self, Millisecond(duration): Millisecond) {
        self.milliseconds_remaining = duration;
        // This will always return nb::WouldBlock (unless duration is 0)
        self.process_tick().ok();
    }

}

Required methods

fn wait(&mut self) -> Result<(), Infallible>

Returns Err(WouldBlock) if less time than delay has passed since start_real was called and Ok(()) if more time has passed.

If start_real hasn't been called yet, the behaviour is undefined

fn start(&mut self, duration: Millisecond)

Start the count down for the specified amount of milliseconds.

The required accuracy depends on the duration. Above 1 second, the requirements are very low.
