# gticker
gticker is time ticker with immediate first tick.
The Go standard library has a really cool type – Ticker.
Tickers are used when you want to do something at a regular interval.
However, if we want to tic immediately the first time, we can cut it out to a function and call it before tic.
This package was created for the purpose of being able to handle a different approach from that implementation.
## Requirement
Go 1.16
## Installation
```shell
go get github.com/hlts2/gticker
```
## Example
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
"github.com/hlts2/gticker"
)
func main() {
ticker := gticker.NewInstantTicker(1 * time.Second)
done := make(chan bool)
go func() {
for {
select {
case <-done:
return
case t := <-ticker.C():
fmt.Println("Tick at", t)
}
}
}()
time.Sleep(3 * time.Second)
ticker.Stop()
done <- true
fmt.Println("Ticker stopped")
}
```
