let end, start;
countdown(
    ({ at }) =>
        console.log(`ENDED in ${at-start}ms (${at})`),
    1000,
    ({ remaining, elapsed, cycle, progress, at }) => 
        console.log(
            `tick #${cycle} : ${progress}%`,
            `[${remaining} | ${elapsed}]`,
            at
        ),
    100
)
// run is not, if we want to start the countdown
.run(({ at }) => {
    start = at;

API

countdown(endƒn, horizont ms, tickƒn, tick ms)

factory method expects as parameters:

• endƒn <ƒunction> : meant to be executed when the countdown is over
• horizont <integer>: the "event horizont"; number of milliseconds for the coundown to complete
• tickƒn <tickƒn>: meant to be executed when ticking (default () => {})
• tick <integer>: the "tick period"; number of milliseconds between two consequtive ticks (default 100ms))

returns an instance of a simple object where the following methods are available:

• run(ƒn) to start it, optionally accepts a function that will be called once started receiving the countdown instance

• pause(_slide_ <bool>) to pause it manually; when a truthy value is passed for slide then this pause will not only stop the tick notifications (if any set) but will also slide forward the end of the countdown set as horizont.

• resume() to resume it manually

• tune(number) to live add (positive number) or remove (negative number) number milliseconds to the event horizont

• end() to stop it

• getStatus() returns an object {remaining, elapsed, progress}

• onPause(ƒn) to pass a function that will be called when pause will be called; ƒn will be invoked receiving some info

• onResume(ƒn) to pass a function that will be called when resume will be called; ƒn will be invoked receiving some info

• onTune(ƒn) to pass a function that will be invoked when tune is called ƒn will be invoked receiving some info

• onEnd(ƒn) to pass a function that will be called additionally when end will be called; ƒn will be invoked receiving some info

• onErr(ƒn) to pass a function that will handle any thrown err; ƒn will be invoked receiving the error and some info

some info consists in a object containing:

• at: the epoch of the event
• cycle: an integer containing the currect cycle of notification
• elapsed: the elapsed time (pauses included)
• effective: the elapsed time (pauses excluded)
• remaining: the remaining time
• progress: the progress percentage (float, precision 3)
• status: the status of the instance among ['init', 'running', 'paused', 'ended', 'error']
