{-# LANGUAGE LambdaCase #-} {-| Device for running an action at (i.e. shortly after) a certain time, which can be used to implement things like time-based cache expiry. This implementation avoids the use of polling and leans on Haskell's scheduler to achieve low-latency without lots of computational overhead. The alarm can be set multiple times, and in this case the alarm will go off at the earliest requested time. If the alarm is set in the past, the action will run immediately. When the action runs, it clears all future alarms; the action can itself return the time at which it should run again. To perform time-based cache expiry, create an 'AlarmClock' whose action flushes any stale entries from the cache and returns the next time that an entry will expire. If the cache contains no entries that will expire, return 'Nothing' from the alarm action. When expiring entries are added to the cache, call 'setAlarm' to ensure that they will expire in a timely fashion. -} module Control.Concurrent.AlarmClock ( AlarmClock() , newAlarmClock , destroyAlarmClock , setAlarm , setAlarmNow ) where import Control.Applicative import Control.Concurrent import Control.Concurrent.STM import Control.Concurrent.STM.TBMQueue import Control.Exception import Control.Monad import Data.Time import System.Timeout {-| An 'AlarmClock' is a device for running an action at (or shortly after) a certain time. -} newtype AlarmClock = AlarmClock (TBMQueue UTCTime) {-| Create a new 'AlarmClock' that runs the given action.
