Types ¶

type Clock ¶

type Clock interface {
	After(d time.Duration) <-chan time.Time
	Sleep(d time.Duration)
	Now() time.Time
	Since(t time.Time) time.Duration
	NewTicker(d time.Duration) Ticker
}

Clock provides an interface that packages can use instead of directly using the time module, so that chronology-related behavior can be tested

func NewRealClock ¶

func NewRealClock() Clock

NewRealClock returns a Clock which simply delegates calls to the actual time package; it should be used by packages in production.

type FakeClock ¶

type FakeClock interface {
	Clock
	// Advance advances the FakeClock to a new point in time, ensuring any existing
	// sleepers are notified appropriately before returning
	Advance(d time.Duration)
	// BlockUntil will block until the FakeClock has the given number of
	// sleepers (callers of Sleep or After)
	BlockUntil(n int)
}

FakeClock provides an interface for a clock which can be manually advanced through time

func NewFakeClock ¶

func NewFakeClock() FakeClock

NewFakeClock returns a FakeClock implementation which can be manually advanced through time for testing. The initial time of the FakeClock will be an arbitrary non-zero time.

func NewFakeClockAt ¶

func NewFakeClockAt(t time.Time) FakeClock

NewFakeClockAt returns a FakeClock initialised at the given time.Time.

type Ticker ¶

type Ticker interface {
	Chan() <-chan time.Time
	Stop()
}

Ticker provides an interface which can be used instead of directly using the ticker within the time module. The real-time ticker t provides ticks through t.C which becomes now t.Chan() to make this channel requirement definable in this interface.
