I want to create a timer. When it times out, some actions will be taken. But, I can interrupt this timer and reset it. The pseudo code looks like below:
def timeout():
print "time out!"
T.cancel() # reset timer T
T = Timer(60, timeout)
T.start()
T = Timer(60, timeout)
def interrupt():
T.cancel() # reset timer T
T = Timer(60, timeout)
T.start()
if __name__ == '__main__':
T.start()
while True:
if something is True:
# interrupt
The threading.Timer()<\/a> class is likely what you're looking for:
from __future__ import print_function
from time import sleep
from random import random
from threading import Timer
def timeout():
print("Alarm!")
t = Timer(10.0, timeout)
t.start() # After 10 seconds, "Alarm!" will be printed
sleep(5.0)
if random() < 0.5: # But half of the time
t.cancel() # We might just cancel the timer
print('Canceling')
