A schedule that runs for a specified duration then stops.

Outputs the elapsed time. Useful for time-boxed operations or combining with other schedules to create time-limited variants.

Time-boxing a schedule

import {
  assertErr,
  assertOk,
  done,
  during,
  exponential,
  intersectSchedules,
  testCreateDeps,
} from "@evolu/common";

// Run for at most 30 seconds.
const timeLimited = during("30s");
const deps = testCreateDeps();
const step = timeLimited(deps);
assertOk(step(undefined), [0, 0]);
deps.time.advance("30.1s");
assertErr(step(undefined), done());

// Combine elapsed time with backoff for a time-boxed retry.
const timedRetry = intersectSchedules(exponential("100ms"), during("10s"));
assertOk(timedRetry(testCreateDeps())(undefined), [[100, 0], 100]);
