### Version

- For Angular 2.x.x, please use 1.3.1.
- For Angular 4.x.x, please use 1.3.5.
- For Angular 6.x.x, please use 6.0.0.

### Install

```
npm install ng2-simple-timer
```

### Usage

#### "noImplicitAny": false

Must set `"noImplicitAny": false` in application __tsconfig.json__. Else following error may occur at build time:

error TS7006: Parameter 'any' implicitly has an 'any' type

#### Import into Angular2 RC5+ application (typescript)

`ng2-simple-timer` is implemented as Angular injectable service name __SimpleTimer__.

__For module using SimpleTimer__

Add `SimpleTimer` into module providers (eg. [app.module.ts](https://github.com/J-Siu/ng2-simple-timer-example/blob/master/app/app.module.ts)).

```javascript
import { SimpleTimer } from 'ng2-simple-timer';

@NgModule({
providers: [SimpleTimer]
})
```

__For each child component using SimpleTimer__

```javascript
import {SimpleTimer} from 'ng2-simple-timer';

export class ChildComponent {

constructor(private st: SimpleTimer) { }

}
```

#### API

###### newTimer

`newTimer(name: string, sec: number, delay: boolean = false): boolean`

`newTimer` will create timer `name` and tick every 'number' of seconds. Creating timer with the same name multiple times has no side effect.

`delay`: If set to true will delay the 1st tick till the end of the first interval.

Return `false` if timer `name` exist.

```javascript
this.st.newTimer('5sec', 5);
this.st.newTimer('5sec', 5, true);
```

###### delTimer

`delTimer(name: string): boolean`

`delTimer` will delete timer `name`

Return `false` if timer `name` does not exist.

```javascript
this.st.delTimer('5sec');
```

###### getTimer

`getTimer(): string[]`

`getTimer` will return all timer name in string array.
```javascript
let t: string[] = this.st.getTimer();
```

###### getSubscription

`getSubscription(): string[]`

`getSubscription` will return all subscription id in string array.
```javascript
let ids: string[] = this.st.getSubscription();
```

###### subscribe

`subscribe(name: string, callback: () => void): string`

`subscribe` will link `callback` function to timer `name`. Whenever timer `name` tick, `callback` will be invoked.

Return subscription id(string).

Return empty string if timer `name` does not exist.

Either use Lambda(fat arrow) in typescript to pass in callback or bind `this` to another variable in javascript, else `this` scope will be lost.

__Lambda(fat arrow)__
```javascript
counter: number = 0;
timerId: string;

ngOnInit() {
// lazy mode
this.timerId = this.st.subscribe('5sec', () => this.callback());
}

callback() {
this.counter++;
}
```

###### unsubscribe

`unsubscribe(id: string): boolean`

`unsubscribe` will cancel subscription using `id`.

`unsubscribe` will return false if `id` is undefined or `id` is not found in subscription list.

```javascript
timerId: string;

this.st.unsubscribe(this.timerId);
```
