Class t.i.t.LoopingCall:

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

Call a function repeatedly.

Instance Variables	f	The function to call.
	a	A tuple of arguments to pass the function.
	kw	A dictionary of keyword arguments to pass to the function. If `f` returns a deferred, rescheduling will not take place until the deferred has fired. The result value is ignored.

Method	_callLater	Undocumented
Method	__init__	Undocumented
Method	start	Start running function every interval seconds.
Method	stop	Stop running function.
Method	__call__	Undocumented
Method	_reschedule	Undocumented
Method	__repr__	Undocumented

def start(self, interval, now=True): (source)

Start running function every interval seconds.

Parameters	interval	The number of seconds between calls. May be less than one. Precision will depend on the underlying platform, the available hardware, and the load on the system.
	now	If True, run this call right now. Otherwise, wait until the interval has elapsed before beginning.
Returns	A Deferred whose callback will be invoked with `self` when `self.stop` is called, or whose errback will be invoked when the function raises an exception or returned a deferred that has its errback invoked.

def stop(self): (source)

Stop running function.
