Discussion on: Why not to use setInterval

View post

Replies for: How about making an async version of setInterval? Something like... const setIntervalAsync = (fn, ms) => { fn().then(() => { setTime...

And handle errors:

const delayReport = deplayMs => new Promise((resolve) => {
    setTimeout(resolve, deplayMs);
});

setIntervalAsync(async () => {
    try {
        const seed = Math.floor((Math.random() * 100) + 1);
        if (seed % 2 === 0) {
            console.log(new Date());
            await delayReport(500);
        } else { throw new Error('get a random error'); }
    } catch (e) {
        console.error(e);
    }
}, 1000);
