Useful for implementing behavior that should only happen after a repeated action has completed.
$ component install component/debounce
Or in node:
$ npm install debounce
var debounce = require('debounce');
window.onresize = debounce(resize, 200);
function resize(e) {
console.log('height', window.innerHeight);
console.log('width', window.innerWidth);
}
To later clear the timer and cancel currently scheduled executions:
window.onresize.clear();
Creates and returns a new debounced version of the passed function that will postpone its execution until after wait milliseconds have elapsed since the last time it was invoked.
Pass true
for the immediate
parameter to cause debounce to trigger the function on the leading edge instead of the trailing edge of the wait interval. Useful in circumstances like preventing accidental double-clicks on a "submit" button from firing a second time.
The debounced function returned also has a property 'clear' that is a function that will clear any scheduled future executions of your function.
