t.i.t.Clock : class documentation

Part of twisted.internet.task View Source View In Hierarchy

Provide a deterministic, easily-controlled implementation of IReactorTime.callLater. This is commonly useful for writing deterministic unit tests for code which schedules events using this API.

Method	__init__	Undocumented
Method	seconds	Pretend to be time.time(). This is used internally when an operation such as `IDelayedCall.reset` needs to determine a time value relative to the current time.
Method	callLater	See `twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorTime.callLater`.
Method	getDelayedCalls	See `twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorTime.getDelayedCalls`
Method	advance	Move time on this clock forward by the given amount and run whatever pending calls should be run.
Method	pump	Advance incrementally by the given set of times.
Method	_sortCalls	Sort the pending calls according to the time they are scheduled.

def __init__(self): (source)

Undocumented

def seconds(self): (source)

Pretend to be time.time(). This is used internally when an operation such as IDelayedCall.reset needs to determine a time value relative to the current time.

Returns The time which should be considered the current time. (type: float)

def _sortCalls(self): (source)

Sort the pending calls according to the time they are scheduled.

def callLater(self, when, what, *a, **kw): (source)

See twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorTime.callLater.

def getDelayedCalls(self): (source)

See twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorTime.getDelayedCalls

def advance(self, amount): (source)

Move time on this clock forward by the given amount and run whatever pending calls should be run.

Parameters amount The number of seconds which to advance this clock's time. (type: float)

def pump(self, timings): (source)

Advance incrementally by the given set of times.
