Rx.Observable.timer(dueTime, [period], [scheduler])

{% if book.isPdf %}

{% else %}

{% endif %}

Returns an observable sequence that produces a value after dueTime has elapsed and then after each period. Note for rx.lite.js, only relative time is supported.

Arguments

1. dueTime (Date|Number): Absolute (specified as a Date object) or relative time (specified as an integer denoting milliseconds) at which to produce the first value.
2. [period|scheduler=Rx.Scheduler.timeout] (Number|Scheduler): Period to produce subsequent values (specified as an integer denoting milliseconds), or the scheduler to run the timer on. If not specified, the resulting timer is not recurring.
3. [scheduler=Rx.Scheduler.timeout] (Scheduler): Scheduler to run the timer on. If not specified, the timeout scheduler is used.

Returns

(Observable): An observable sequence that produces a value after due time has elapsed and then each period.
