Timers and Tickers

September 28 2012

If you’re interested in Go, be sure to check out Go by Example.

We often want to execute Go code at some point in the future, or repeatedly at some interval. Go’s built-in timer and ticker features make both of these tasks easy. Let’s look at some examples to see how they work.

Timers

Timers represent a single event in the future. You tell the timer how long you want to wait, and it gives you a channel that will be notified at that time. For example, to wait 2 seconds:

package main

import "time"

func main() { timer := time.NewTimer(time.Second * 2) <- timer.C println("Timer expired") } 

The <- timer.C blocks on the timer’s channel C until it sends a value indicating that the timer expired. You can test this by putting the code in timers1.go and running it with time and go run:

$ time go run timers1.go
Timer expired
real  0m2.113s

If you just wanted to wait, you could have used time.Sleep. One reason a timer may be useful is that you can cancel the timer before it expires. For example, try running this in timers2.go:

package main

import "time"

func main() { timer := time.NewTimer(time.Second) go func() { <- timer.C println("Timer expired") }() stop := timer.Stop() println("Timer cancelled:", stop) } 

$ go run timers2.go
Timer cancelled: true

In this case we canceled the timer before it had a chance to expire (Stop() would return false if we tried to cancel it after it expired.)

Tickers

Timers are for when you want to do something once in the future - tickers are for when you want to do something repeatedly at regular intervals. Here’s a basic example:

package main

import "time"
import "fmt" func main() { ticker := time.NewTicker(time.Millisecond * 500) go func() { for t := range ticker.C { fmt.Println("Tick at", t) } }() time.Sleep(time.Millisecond * 1500) ticker.Stop() fmt.Println("Ticker stopped") } 

Try it out in tickers.go:

$ go run tickers.go
Tick at 2012-09-22 15:58:40.912926 -0400 EDT
Tick at 2012-09-22 15:58:41.413892 -0400 EDT
Tick at 2012-09-22 15:58:41.913888 -0400 EDT
Ticker stopped 

Tickers can be stopped just like timers using the Stop() method, as shown at the bottom of the example.

Power of Channels

A great feature of Go’s timers and tickers is that they hook into Go’s built-in concurrency mechanism: channels. This allows timers and tickers to interact seamlessly with other concurrent goroutines. For example:

package main

import "time"
import "fmt" func main() { timeChan := time.NewTimer(time.Second).C tickChan := time.NewTicker(time.Millisecond * 400).C doneChan := make(chan bool) go func() { time.Sleep(time.Second * 2) doneChan <- true }() for { select { case <- timeChan: fmt.Println("Timer expired") case <- tickChan: fmt.Println("Ticker ticked") case <- doneChan: fmt.Println("Done") return } } } 

Try it out by running this code form channels.go:

$ go run channels.go
Ticker ticked
Ticker ticked
Timer expired
Ticker ticked Ticker ticked Ticker ticked Done 

In this case we see the timer, ticker, and our own custom goroutine all participating in the same select block. The combination of the Go runtime, its channel feature, and timers/tickers use of channels make this kind of cooperation very natural in Go.

You can learn more about timers, tickers, and other time-related Go features in the Gotime package docs.
