Install

Parameters and Return Types

use-countdown-timer is written in TypeScript and bundles type definitions.

export interface ICountdownTimerParams {
  timer: number;
  interval?: number;
  autostart?: boolean;
  expireImmediate?: boolean;
  onExpire?: () => void;
  onReset?: () => void;
}

export declare type CountdownTimerResults = {
  countdown: number;
  isRunning: boolean;
  start: () => void;
  reset: () => void;
  pause: () => void;
};

Usage

import React from 'react';

import { useCountdownTimer } from 'use-countdown-timer';

const Example = () => {
  const { countdown, start, reset, pause, isRunning } = useCountdownTimer({
    timer: 1000 * 5,
  });

  return (
    <React.Fragment>
      <div>{countdown}</div>
      <button onClick={reset}>Reset</button>
      {isRunning ? (
        <button onClick={pause}>Pause</button>
      ) : (
        <button onClick={start}>Start</button>
      )}
    </React.Fragment>
  );
};

Development

Local development involves two parts.

First, install and start the library so that it watches src/ directory and automatically recompiles to dist/ on change.

# clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/LobsterBandit/use-countdown-timer.git

# install dependencies
cd use-countdown-timer/
npm install

# start rollup in watch mode
npm start

Second, install and start the example app that is linked to your local use-countdown-timer version.

# in second terminal window
cd example/
npm install

# start create-react-app dev server
npm start

Now, any changes to src/ in the local use-countdown-timer or to the example app’s example/src/ will live-reload the dev server.
