I'm not sure exactly what you're doing, but I think you might want something like this:
saveZ <- c()
library(later)
cancel <- NULL
print_time <- function(interval = 1) {
Z <- timestamp()
saveZ <<- c(saveZ, Z)
cancel <<- later::later(print_time, interval)
}
print_time()
# To stop, call cancel()
cancel()
later()
returns a function which will cancel the scheduled callback. I used <<-
to assign it to a scope outside of the print_time
function. Calling cancel()
at any time will stop this from running.
Similarly, the saveZ
needed to be assigned with <<-
.
Hi: How can i stop later loop, because i need to save some variables that i produce inside loop every hour for example. My example code is below. Thanks for your help
saveZ<-c() library(later) print_time = function(interval = 10) { Z<-timestamp() saveZ<-rbind(saveZ, Z) later::later(print_time, interval) } print_time()
