Struct Timer 

pub struct Timer { /* private fields */ }

Timer that generates periodic tick events at 1-second intervals.

The Timer is responsible for generating time-based events that drive the execution of scheduled tasks. It uses a Clock to generate ticks and sends TimerEvent::Tick events through a channel.

Implementations

impl Timer

pub fn new(event_sender: Sender<TimerEvent>) -> Self

Creates a new Timer instance.

Arguments

• event_sender - The channel sender for sending timer events

pub fn is_running(&self) -> bool

Checks if the timer is currently running.

Returns

true if the timer is running, false otherwise.

pub async fn run(&mut self)

Starts the timer and runs the event loop.

This method runs an asynchronous loop that:

1. Waits for one second (via clock.tick())
2. Sends a TimerEvent::Tick event

The loop continues until stop() is called.

pub fn stop(&self)

Stops the timer.

This sets the internal running flag to false, which will cause the run() method to exit on its next iteration.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Timer

fn clone(&self) -> Self

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.
