useTimer
- Demo
Example
import React from 'react';
import { useTimer } from 'react-timer-hook';
function MyTimer({ expiryTimestamp }) {
const {
totalSeconds,
seconds,
minutes,
hours,
days,
isRunning,
start,
pause,
resume,
restart,
} = useTimer({ expiryTimestamp, onExpire: () => console.warn('onExpire called') });
return (
<div style={{textAlign: 'center'}}>
<h1>react-timer-hook </h1>
<p>Timer Demo</p>
<div style={{fontSize: '100px'}}>
<span>{days}</span>:<span>{hours}</span>:<span>{minutes}</span>:<span>{seconds}</span>
</div>
<p>{isRunning ? 'Running' : 'Not running'}</p>
<button onClick={start}>Start</button>
<button onClick={pause}>Pause</button>
<button onClick={resume}>Resume</button>
<button onClick={() => {
// Restarts to 5 minutes timer
const time = new Date();
time.setSeconds(time.getSeconds() + 300);
restart(time)
}}>Restart</button>
</div>
);
}
export default function App() {
const time = new Date();
time.setSeconds(time.getSeconds() + 600); // 10 minutes timer
return (

</div>
);
}
Settings
key | Type | Required | Description |
---|
expiryTimestamp | Date object | YES | this will define for how long the timer will be running |
autoStart | boolean | No | flag to decide if timer should start automatically, by default it is set to true |
onExpire | Function | No | callback function to be executed once countdown timer is expired |
Values
key | Type | Description |
---|
seconds | number | seconds value |
minutes | number | minutes value |
hours | number | hours value |
days | number | days value |
totalSeconds | number | total number of seconds left in timer NOT converted to minutes, hours or days |
isRunning | boolean | flag to indicate if timer is running or not |
pause | function | function to be called to pause timer |
start | function | function if called after pause the timer will continue based on original expiryTimestamp |
resume | function | function if called after pause the timer will continue countdown from last paused state |
restart | function | function to restart timer with new expiryTimestamp, accept 2 arguments first is the new expiryTimestamp of type Date object and second is autoStart of type boolean to decide if it should automatically start after restart or not, default is true |
useStopwatch
- Demo
Example
import React from 'react';
import { useStopwatch } from 'react-timer-hook';
function MyStopwatch() {
const {
totalSeconds,
seconds,
minutes,
hours,
days,
isRunning,
start,
pause,
reset,
} = useStopwatch({ autoStart: true });
return (
<div style={{textAlign: 'center'}}>
<h1>react-timer-hook</h1>
<p>Stopwatch Demo</p>
<div style={{fontSize: '100px'}}>
<span>{days}</span>:<span>{hours}</span>:<span>{minutes}</span>:<span>{seconds}</span>
</div>
<p>{isRunning ? 'Running' : 'Not running'}</p>
<button onClick={start}>Start</button>
<button onClick={pause}>Pause</button>
<button onClick={reset}>Reset</button>
</div>
);
}
export default function App() {
return (
<div>
<MyStopwatch />
</div>
);
}
Settings
key | Type | Required | Description |
---|
autoStart | boolean | No | if set to true stopwatch will auto start, by default it is set to false |
offsetTimestamp | Date object | No | this will define the initial stopwatch offset example: const stopwatchOffset = new Date(); stopwatchOffset.setSeconds(stopwatchOffset.getSeconds() + 300); this will result in a 5 minutes offset and stopwatch will start from 0:0:5:0 instead of 0:0:0:0 |
Values
key | Type | Description |
---|
seconds | number | seconds value |
minutes | number | minutes value |
hours | number | hours value |
days | number | days value |
totalSeconds | number | total number of seconds in stopwatch NOT converted to minutes, hours or days |
isRunning | boolean | flag to indicate if stopwatch is running or not |
start | function | function to be called to start/resume stopwatch |
pause | function | function to be called to pause stopwatch |
reset | function | function to be called to reset stopwatch to 0:0:0:0, you can also pass offset parameter to this function to reset stopwatch with offset, similar to how offsetTimestamp will offset the initial stopwatch time, this function will accept also a second argument which will decide if stopwatch should automatically start after reset or not default is true |

Deprecation Warning:
Starting from v1.1.0
and above default export useTimer
is deprecated, your old code will still work but it is better to start using named exports { useTimer, useStopwatch, useTime }
