Rx.Scheduler class

Provides a set of static methods to access commonly used schedulers and a base class for all schedulers.

Usage

The follow example shows the basic usage of an Rx.Scheduler.

var disposable = Rx.Scheduler.timeout.scheduleWithState(
     'world',
     function (x) {
          console.log('hello ' + x);
     }
);

// => hello world

Scheduler Constructor

Rx.Scheduler(now, schedule, scheduleRelative, scheduleAbsolute)

#

Initializes a new instance of the Rx.Scheduler. This is meant for Scheduler implementers and not normal usage.

参数

  1. now (Function): Function which gets the current time according to the local machine's system clock.
  2. schedule (Function): Function to schedule an action immediately.
  3. scheduleRelative (Function): Function used to schedule an action in relative time.
  4. scheduleAbsolute (Function): Function used to schedule an action in absolute time.

// Used for scheduling immediately
function schedule(state, action) {
     var scheduler = this,
          disposable = new Rx.SingleAssignmentDisposable();

     var id = setTimeout(function () {
          if (!disposable.isDisposed) {
               disposable.setDisposable(action(scheduler, state));
          }
     }, 0);

     return new CompositeDisposable(disposable, disposableCreate(function () {
          clearMethod(id);
     }));
}

// Used for scheduling relative to now
function scheduleRelative(state, dueTime, action) {
     var scheduler = this,
          dt = Scheduler.normalize(dueTime);

     // Shortcut if already 0
     if (dt === 0) {
          return scheduler.scheduleWithState(state, action);
     }

     var disposable = new Rx.SingleAssignmentDisposable();
     var id = window.setTimeout(function () {
          if (!disposable.isDisposed) {
               disposable.setDisposable(action(scheduler, state));
          }
     }, dt);

     return new CompositeDisposable(disposable, disposableCreate(function () {
          window.clearTimeout(id);
     }));
}

// Used for scheduling in absolute time
function scheduleAbsolute(state, dueTime, action) {
     return this.scheduleWithRelativeAndState(state, dueTime - this.now(), action);
}

var timeoutScheduler = new Rx.Scheduler(
     Date.now,
     schedule,
     scheduleRelative,
     scheduleAbsolute
);

var handle = timeoutScheduler.schedule(function () {
     console.log('hello');
});

// => hello

Scheduler Instance Methods

Rx.Scheduler.prototype.catch(handler)

#

Returns a scheduler that wraps the original scheduler, adding exception handling for scheduled actions. There is an alias of catchException for browsers < IE9.

参数

  1. handler (Function): Handler that's run if an exception is caught. The exception will be rethrown if the handler returns false.

返回值

(Scheduler): Wrapper around the original scheduler, enforcing exception handling.

function inherits (ctor, superCtor) {
    ctor.super_ = superCtor;
    ctor.prototype = Object.create(superCtor.prototype, {
        constructor: {
            value: ctor,
            enumerable: false,
            writable: true,
            configurable: true
        }
    });
}

inherits (SchedulerError, Error);

function SchedulerError(message) {
    Error.call(this, message);
}

var scheduler = Rx.Scheduler.timeout;
var catchScheduler = scheduler.catchException(function (e) {
    return e instanceof SchedulerError;
});

// Throws no exception
var d1 = catchScheduler.schedule(function () {
    throw new SchedulerError('woops');
});

var d2 = catchScheduler.schedule(function () {
    throw new Error('woops');
});

Rx.Scheduler.currentThread

#

Gets a scheduler that schedules work as soon as possible on the current thread. This implementation does not support relative and absolute scheduling due to thread blocking required.

Rx.Scheduler.timeout

#

Gets a scheduler that schedules work via a timed callback based upon platform.

For all schedule calls, it defaults to:

  • Node.js: uses setImmediate for newer builds, and process.nextTick for older versions.
  • Browser: depending on platform may use setImmediate, MessageChannel, window.postMessage and for older versions of IE, it will default to script.onreadystatechanged, else falls back to window.setTimeout.

For all relative and absolute scheduling, it defaults to using window.setTimeout.

var scheduler = Rx.Scheduler.timeout;

var disposable = scheduler.scheduleWithState(
     0,
     function (x) {
          console.log(x);
