set-timeout

Delay the call of a function in a given context.

Based on the excellent mout's timeout implementation, offered to you as a tiny module.

Install with npm

npm i set-timeout --save

Usage

Acts as a wrapper for setTimeout. Calls the given fn within the specified context, after the given delay in ms (milliseconds). The return value can be used to clear the timeout using clearTimeout.

var timeout = require('set-timeout');

var id = timeout(doStuff, 300, this);
clearTimeout(id);
