How to get Pomodoro Clock to work on CodePen?

How to get Pomodoro Clock to work on CodePen? - javascript

The following code for a React Pomodoro Clock has been input into CodePen exactly into the CodePen JS editor and HTML editor, and then save clicked. However, CodePen does not display the Pomodoro Clock, and where the clock should appear there is only a blank orange page. There is no indication why on CodePen. Actual link: https://codepen.io/controlunit/pen/dyMrMxy Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's because you're using JSX in your javascript without transpiling it. Go into codepen's settings and under the javascript tab select 'babel' as the javascript preprocessor.

Is there a way of calling an html element before it is defined? [duplicate]

I have seen lots of countdown timers in JavaScript and wanted to get one working in React.
I have borrowed this function I found online:
secondsToTime(secs){
let hours = Math.floor(secs / (60 * 60));
let divisor_for_minutes = secs % (60 * 60);
let minutes = Math.floor(divisor_for_minutes / 60);
let divisor_for_seconds = divisor_for_minutes % 60;
let seconds = Math.ceil(divisor_for_seconds);
let obj = {
"h": hours,
"m": minutes,
"s": seconds
};
return obj;
};
And then I have written this code myself
initiateTimer = () => {
let timeLeftVar = this.secondsToTime(60);
this.setState({ timeLeft: timeLeftVar })
};
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(this.timer, 1000);
this.setState({ interval: interval });
};
timer = () => {
if (this.state.timeLeft >0){
this.setState({ timeLeft: this.state.timeLeft -1 });
}
else {
clearInterval(this.state.interval);
//this.postToSlack();
}
};
Currently onclick it will set the time on screen to: Time Remaining: 1 m : 0 s
But it does not reduce it to Time Remaining: 0 m : 59 s and then Time Remaining: 0 m : 58 s etc etc
I think I need to call the function again with a different parameter. how can I go about doing this ?
Edit: I forgot to say, I would like the functionality so that I can use seconds to minutes & seconds

You have to setState every second with the seconds remaining (every time the interval is called). Here's an example:
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = { time: {}, seconds: 5 };
this.timer = 0;
this.startTimer = this.startTimer.bind(this);
this.countDown = this.countDown.bind(this);
}
secondsToTime(secs){
let hours = Math.floor(secs / (60 * 60));
let divisor_for_minutes = secs % (60 * 60);
let minutes = Math.floor(divisor_for_minutes / 60);
let divisor_for_seconds = divisor_for_minutes % 60;
let seconds = Math.ceil(divisor_for_seconds);
let obj = {
"h": hours,
"m": minutes,
"s": seconds
};
return obj;
}
componentDidMount() {
let timeLeftVar = this.secondsToTime(this.state.seconds);
this.setState({ time: timeLeftVar });
}
startTimer() {
if (this.timer == 0 && this.state.seconds > 0) {
this.timer = setInterval(this.countDown, 1000);
}
}
countDown() {
// Remove one second, set state so a re-render happens.
let seconds = this.state.seconds - 1;
this.setState({
time: this.secondsToTime(seconds),
seconds: seconds,
});
// Check if we're at zero.
if (seconds == 0) {
clearInterval(this.timer);
}
}
render() {
return(
<div>
<button onClick={this.startTimer}>Start</button>
m: {this.state.time.m} s: {this.state.time.s}
</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<Example/>, document.getElementById('View'));

Here is a solution using hooks, Timer component, I'm replicating same logic above with hooks
import React from 'react'
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
const Timer = (props:any) => {
const {initialMinute = 0,initialSeconds = 0} = props;
const [ minutes, setMinutes ] = useState(initialMinute);
const [seconds, setSeconds ] = useState(initialSeconds);
useEffect(()=>{
let myInterval = setInterval(() => {
if (seconds > 0) {
setSeconds(seconds - 1);
}
if (seconds === 0) {
if (minutes === 0) {
clearInterval(myInterval)
} else {
setMinutes(minutes - 1);
setSeconds(59);
}
}
}, 1000)
return ()=> {
clearInterval(myInterval);
};
});
return (
<div>
{ minutes === 0 && seconds === 0
? null
: <h1> {minutes}:{seconds < 10 ? `0${seconds}` : seconds}</h1>
}
</div>
)
}
export default Timer;

Here is a simple implementation using hooks and useInterval implementation of #dan-abramov
import React, {useState, useEffect, useRef} from 'react'
import './styles.css'
const STATUS = {
STARTED: 'Started',
STOPPED: 'Stopped',
}
const INITIAL_COUNT = 120
export default function CountdownApp() {
const [secondsRemaining, setSecondsRemaining] = useState(INITIAL_COUNT)
const [status, setStatus] = useState(STATUS.STOPPED)
const secondsToDisplay = secondsRemaining % 60
const minutesRemaining = (secondsRemaining - secondsToDisplay) / 60
const minutesToDisplay = minutesRemaining % 60
const hoursToDisplay = (minutesRemaining - minutesToDisplay) / 60
const handleStart = () => {
setStatus(STATUS.STARTED)
}
const handleStop = () => {
setStatus(STATUS.STOPPED)
}
const handleReset = () => {
setStatus(STATUS.STOPPED)
setSecondsRemaining(INITIAL_COUNT)
}
useInterval(
() => {
if (secondsRemaining > 0) {
setSecondsRemaining(secondsRemaining - 1)
} else {
setStatus(STATUS.STOPPED)
}
},
status === STATUS.STARTED ? 1000 : null,
// passing null stops the interval
)
return (
<div className="App">

<div style={{padding: 20}}>

</div>
<div>Status: {status}</div>
</div>
)
}

Here is the codesandbox implementation: https://codesandbox.io/s/react-countdown-demo-gtr4u?file=/src/App.js

Basic idea showing counting down using Date.now() instead of subtracting one which will drift over time.
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
time: {
hours: 0,
minutes: 0,
seconds: 0,
milliseconds: 0,
},
duration: 2 * 60 * 1000,
timer: null
};
this.startTimer = this.start.bind(this);
}
msToTime(duration) {
let milliseconds = parseInt((duration % 1000));
let seconds = Math.floor((duration / 1000) % 60);
let minutes = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60)) % 60);
let hours = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60 * 60)) % 24);
hours = hours.toString().padStart(2, '0');
minutes = minutes.toString().padStart(2, '0');
seconds = seconds.toString().padStart(2, '0');
milliseconds = milliseconds.toString().padStart(3, '0');
return {
hours,
minutes,
seconds,
milliseconds
};
}
componentDidMount() {}
start() {
if (!this.state.timer) {
this.state.startTime = Date.now();
this.timer = window.setInterval(() => this.run(), 10);
}
}
run() {
const diff = Date.now() - this.state.startTime;
// If you want to count up
// this.setState(() => ({
// time: this.msToTime(diff)
// }));
// count down
let remaining = this.state.duration - diff;
if (remaining < 0) {
remaining = 0;
}
this.setState(() => ({
time: this.msToTime(remaining)
}));
if (remaining === 0) {
window.clearTimeout(this.timer);
this.timer = null;
}
}
render() {
return ( <
div >
<
button onClick = {
this.startTimer
} > Start < /button> {
this.state.time.hours
}: {
this.state.time.minutes
}: {
this.state.time.seconds
}. {
this.state.time.milliseconds
}:
<
/div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render( < Example / > , document.getElementById('View'));

simple resolution:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
const Timer = ({ delayResend = "180" }) => {
const [delay, setDelay] = useState(+delayResend);
const minutes = Math.floor(delay / 60);
const seconds = Math.floor(delay % 60);
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setInterval(() => {
setDelay(delay - 1);
}, 1000);
if (delay === 0) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
return () => {
clearInterval(timer);
};
});
return (
<>
<span>
{minutes}:{seconds}
</span>
</>
);
};
export default Timer;

The problem is in your "this" value.
Timer function cannot access the "state" prop because run in a different context. I suggest you to do something like this:
...
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(this.timer.bind(this), 1000);
this.setState({ interval });
};
As you can see I've added a "bind" method to your timer function. This allows the timer, when called, to access the same "this" of your react component (This is the primary problem/improvement when working with javascript in general).
Another option is to use another arrow function:
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(() => this.timer(), 1000);
this.setState({ interval });
};

I had the same problem and I found this npm package for a countdown.
install the package
npm install react-countdown --save
or
yarn add react-countdown
import the package to your file
import Countdown from 'react-countdown';
call the imported "Countdown" inside a render method and pass a date
<Countdown date={new Date('2021-09-26T10:05:29.896Z').getTime()}>
or
<Countdown date={new Date("Sat Sep 26 2021")}>
Here is an example for you.
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import Countdown from "react-countdown";
// Random component
const Completionist = () => <span>You are good to go!</span>;
ReactDOM.render(
<Countdown date={new Date('2021-09-26T10:05:29.896Z').getTime()}>
<Completionist />
</Countdown>,
document.getElementById("root")
);
you can see the detailed document here https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-countdown

functionality :
1)Start
2)Reset
functional component
import {useState, useCallback} from 'react';
const defaultCount = 10;
const intervalGap = 300;
const Counter = () => {
const [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(defaultCount);
const startTimerWrapper = useCallback((func)=>{
let timeInterval: NodeJS.Timer;
return () => {
if(timeInterval) {
clearInterval(timeInterval)
}
setTimerCount(defaultCount)
timeInterval = setInterval(() => {
func(timeInterval)
}, intervalGap)
}
}, [])
const timer = useCallback(startTimerWrapper((intervalfn: NodeJS.Timeout) => {
setTimerCount((val) => {
if(val === 0 ) {
clearInterval(intervalfn);
return val
}
return val - 1
})
}), [])
return <>
<div> Counter App</div>
<div> <button onClick={timer}>Start/Reset</button></div>
<div> {timerCount}</div>
</>
}
export default Counter;

When you are using functional components the above code is a good option to do it:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import { MessageStrip } from "#ui5/webcomponents-react";
import "./Timer.scss";
const nMinuteSeconds = 60;
const nSecondInMiliseconds = 1000;
const convertMinutesToMiliseconds = (minute) =>
minute * nMinuteSeconds * nSecondInMiliseconds;
const convertMilisecondsToHour = (miliseconds) => new Date(miliseconds).toISOString().slice(11, -5);
export default function Counter({ minutes, onTimeOut }) {
let [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(
convertMinutesToMiliseconds(minutes)
);
let interval;
useEffect(() => {
if (interval) {
clearInterval(interval);
}
interval = setInterval(() => {
if (timerCount === 0 && interval) {
onTimeOut();
clearInterval(interval);
}
setTimerCount((timerCount -= nSecondInMiliseconds));
}, nSecondInMiliseconds);
}, []);
return (
<>
<MessageStrip design="Information" hide-close-button>
Time left: {convertMilisecondsToHour(timerCount)}
</MessageStrip>
</>
);
}

Here's a simple implementation using a custom hook:
import * as React from 'react';
// future time from where countdown will start decreasing
const futureTime = new Date( Date.now() + 5000 ).getTime(); // adding 5 seconds
export const useCountDown = (stop = false) => {
const [time, setTime] = React.useState(
futureTime - Date.now()
);
// ref to store interval which we can clear out later
// when stop changes through parent component (component that uses this hook)
// causing the useEffect callback to trigger again
const intervalRef = React.useRef<NodeJS.Timer | null>(null);
React.useEffect(() => {
if (intervalRef.current) {
clearInterval(intervalRef.current);
intervalRef.current = null;
return;
}
const interval = intervalRef.current = setInterval(() => {
setTime(futureTime - Date.now());
}, 1000);
return () => clearInterval(interval);
}, [stop]);
return getReturnValues(time);
};
const getReturnValues = (countDown: number) => {
const days = Math.floor(countDown / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
const hours = Math.floor(
(countDown % (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)) / (1000 * 60 * 60)
);
const minutes = Math.floor((countDown % (1000 * 60 * 60)) / (1000 * 60));
const seconds = Math.floor((countDown % (1000 * 60)) / 1000);
return [days, hours, minutes, seconds];
};
Example of using this hook:
function App() {
const [timerStopped, stopTimer] = React.useState(false);
const [,hours,minutes,seconds] = useCountDown(timerStopped);
// to stop the interval
if( !timerStopped && minutes + seconds <= 0 ) {
stopTimer(true);
}
return (
<div className="App">
Time Left: {hours}:{minutes}:{seconds}
{ timerStopped ? (
<h1>Time's up</h1>
) : null }
</div>
);
}

A simple 24-hour countdown that can easily be customized to fit different scenarios
setInterval(function time() {
let d = new Date();
let hours = 24 - d.getHours();
let min = 60 - d.getMinutes();
if ((min + "").length == 1) {
min = "0" + min;
}
let sec = 60 - d.getSeconds();
if ((sec + "").length == 1) {
sec = "0" + sec;
}
setState(hours + ":" + min + ":" + sec);
}, 1000);

The one downside with setInterval is that it can slow down the main thread. You can do a countdown timer using requestAnimationFrame instead to prevent this. For example, this is my generic countdown timer component:
class Timer extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
// here, getTimeRemaining is a helper function that returns an
// object with { total, seconds, minutes, hours, days }
this.state = { timeLeft: getTimeRemaining(props.expiresAt) }
}
// Wait until the component has mounted to start the animation frame
componentDidMount() {
this.start()
}
// Clean up by cancelling any animation frame previously scheduled
componentWillUnmount() {
this.stop()
}
start = () => {
this.frameId = requestAnimationFrame(this.tick)
}
tick = () => {
const timeLeft = getTimeRemaining(this.props.expiresAt)
if (timeLeft.total <= 0) {
this.stop()
// ...any other actions to do on expiration
} else {
this.setState(
{ timeLeft },
() => this.frameId = requestAnimationFrame(this.tick)
)
}
}
stop = () => {
cancelAnimationFrame(this.frameId)
}
render() {...}
}

Here is a TypeScript version of CountDown Timer in React. I used code of brother Masood and M.Georgiev
import React, {useState, useEffect, useCallback} from "react";
const Minute_to_Seconds = 60;
const Seconds_to_milliseconds = 1000;
export interface CounterProps {
minutes:number,
statusAlert: (status: string)=>void,
}
export interface TimerProps {
initialMinute: number,
initialSeconds: number,

As we don't want the timer at the highest priority than other states so we will use useTransition hook. delay is the time in seconds 180s = 3min.
import React, { useState, useEffect, useTransition } from "react";
const Timer = ({ delayResend = "180" }) => {
const [delay, setDelay] = useState(+delayResend);
const [minutes, setMinutes] = useState(0);
const [seconds, setSeconds] = useState(0);
const [isPending, startTransition] = useTransition();
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setInterval(() => {
startTransition(() => {
setDelay(delay - 1);
setMinutes(Math.floor(delay / 60));
setSeconds(Math.floor(delay % 60));
});
}, 1000);
if (delay === 0) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
return () => {
clearInterval(timer);
};
});
return (

React Stopwatch Timer counting up - not resetting the seconds [duplicate]

I have seen lots of countdown timers in JavaScript and wanted to get one working in React.
I have borrowed this function I found online:
secondsToTime(secs){
let hours = Math.floor(secs / (60 * 60));
let divisor_for_minutes = secs % (60 * 60);
let minutes = Math.floor(divisor_for_minutes / 60);
let divisor_for_seconds = divisor_for_minutes % 60;
let seconds = Math.ceil(divisor_for_seconds);
let obj = {
"h": hours,
"m": minutes,
"s": seconds
};
return obj;
};
And then I have written this code myself
initiateTimer = () => {
let timeLeftVar = this.secondsToTime(60);
this.setState({ timeLeft: timeLeftVar })
};
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(this.timer, 1000);
this.setState({ interval: interval });
};
timer = () => {
if (this.state.timeLeft >0){
this.setState({ timeLeft: this.state.timeLeft -1 });
}
else {
clearInterval(this.state.interval);
//this.postToSlack();
}
};
Currently onclick it will set the time on screen to: Time Remaining: 1 m : 0 s
But it does not reduce it to Time Remaining: 0 m : 59 s and then Time Remaining: 0 m : 58 s etc etc
I think I need to call the function again with a different parameter. how can I go about doing this ?
Edit: I forgot to say, I would like the functionality so that I can use seconds to minutes & seconds

You have to setState every second with the seconds remaining (every time the interval is called). Here's an example:
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = { time: {}, seconds: 5 };
this.timer = 0;
this.startTimer = this.startTimer.bind(this);
this.countDown = this.countDown.bind(this);
}
secondsToTime(secs){
let hours = Math.floor(secs / (60 * 60));
let divisor_for_minutes = secs % (60 * 60);
let minutes = Math.floor(divisor_for_minutes / 60);
let divisor_for_seconds = divisor_for_minutes % 60;
let seconds = Math.ceil(divisor_for_seconds);
let obj = {
"h": hours,
"m": minutes,
"s": seconds
};
return obj;
}
componentDidMount() {
let timeLeftVar = this.secondsToTime(this.state.seconds);
this.setState({ time: timeLeftVar });
}
startTimer() {
if (this.timer == 0 && this.state.seconds > 0) {
this.timer = setInterval(this.countDown, 1000);
}
}
countDown() {
// Remove one second, set state so a re-render happens.
let seconds = this.state.seconds - 1;
this.setState({
time: this.secondsToTime(seconds),
seconds: seconds,
});
// Check if we're at zero.
if (seconds == 0) {
clearInterval(this.timer);
}
}
render() {
return(
<div>
<button onClick={this.startTimer}>Start</button>
m: {this.state.time.m} s: {this.state.time.s}
</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<Example/>, document.getElementById('View'));

Here is a solution using hooks, Timer component, I'm replicating same logic above with hooks
import React from 'react'
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
const Timer = (props:any) => {
const {initialMinute = 0,initialSeconds = 0} = props;
const [ minutes, setMinutes ] = useState(initialMinute);
const [seconds, setSeconds ] = useState(initialSeconds);
useEffect(()=>{
let myInterval = setInterval(() => {
if (seconds > 0) {
setSeconds(seconds - 1);
}
if (seconds === 0) {
if (minutes === 0) {
clearInterval(myInterval)
} else {
setMinutes(minutes - 1);
setSeconds(59);
}
}
}, 1000)
return ()=> {
clearInterval(myInterval);
};
});
return (
<div>
{ minutes === 0 && seconds === 0
? null
: <h1> {minutes}:{seconds < 10 ? `0${seconds}` : seconds}</h1>
}
</div>
)
}
export default Timer;

Here is a simple implementation using hooks and useInterval implementation of #dan-abramov
import React, {useState, useEffect, useRef} from 'react'
import './styles.css'
const STATUS = {

}
const INITIAL_COUNT = 120
export default function CountdownApp() {
const [secondsRemaining, setSecondsRemaining] = useState(INITIAL_COUNT)
const [status, setStatus] = useState(STATUS.STOPPED)
const secondsToDisplay = secondsRemaining % 60
const minutesRemaining = (secondsRemaining - secondsToDisplay) / 60
const minutesToDisplay = minutesRemaining % 60
const hoursToDisplay = (minutesRemaining - minutesToDisplay) / 60
const handleStart = () => {
setStatus(STATUS.STARTED)
}
const handleStop = () => {

}
const handleReset = () => {

if (secondsRemaining > 0) {
setSecondsRemaining(secondsRemaining - 1)
} else {

}
},
status === STATUS.STARTED ? 1000 : null,
// passing null stops the interval

Here is the codesandbox implementation: https://codesandbox.io/s/react-countdown-demo-gtr4u?file=/src/App.js

Basic idea showing counting down using Date.now() instead of subtracting one which will drift over time.
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
time: {
hours: 0,
minutes: 0,
seconds: 0,
milliseconds: 0,
},
duration: 2 * 60 * 1000,
timer: null
};
this.startTimer = this.start.bind(this);
}
msToTime(duration) {
let milliseconds = parseInt((duration % 1000));
let seconds = Math.floor((duration / 1000) % 60);
let minutes = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60)) % 60);
let hours = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60 * 60)) % 24);
hours = hours.toString().padStart(2, '0');
minutes = minutes.toString().padStart(2, '0');
seconds = seconds.toString().padStart(2, '0');
milliseconds = milliseconds.toString().padStart(3, '0');
return {
hours,
minutes,
seconds,
milliseconds
};
}
componentDidMount() {}
start() {
if (!this.state.timer) {
this.state.startTime = Date.now();
this.timer = window.setInterval(() => this.run(), 10);
}
}
run() {
const diff = Date.now() - this.state.startTime;
// If you want to count up
// this.setState(() => ({
// time: this.msToTime(diff)
// }));
// count down
let remaining = this.state.duration - diff;
if (remaining < 0) {
remaining = 0;
}
this.setState(() => ({
time: this.msToTime(remaining)
}));
if (remaining === 0) {
window.clearTimeout(this.timer);
this.timer = null;
}
}
render() {
return ( <
div >
<
button onClick = {
this.startTimer
} > Start < /button> {
this.state.time.hours
}: {
this.state.time.minutes
}: {
this.state.time.seconds
}. {
this.state.time.milliseconds
}:
<
/div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render( < Example / > , document.getElementById('View'));

simple resolution:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
const Timer = ({ delayResend = "180" }) => {
const [delay, setDelay] = useState(+delayResend);
const minutes = Math.floor(delay / 60);
const seconds = Math.floor(delay % 60);
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setInterval(() => {
setDelay(delay - 1);
}, 1000);
if (delay === 0) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
return () => {
clearInterval(timer);
};
});
return (
<>
<span>
{minutes}:{seconds}
</span>
</>
);
};
export default Timer;

The problem is in your "this" value.
Timer function cannot access the "state" prop because run in a different context. I suggest you to do something like this:
...
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(this.timer.bind(this), 1000);
this.setState({ interval });
};
As you can see I've added a "bind" method to your timer function. This allows the timer, when called, to access the same "this" of your react component (This is the primary problem/improvement when working with javascript in general).
Another option is to use another arrow function:
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(() => this.timer(), 1000);
this.setState({ interval });
};

I had the same problem and I found this npm package for a countdown.
install the package
npm install react-countdown --save
or
yarn add react-countdown
import the package to your file
import Countdown from 'react-countdown';
call the imported "Countdown" inside a render method and pass a date
<Countdown date={new Date('2021-09-26T10:05:29.896Z').getTime()}>
or
<Countdown date={new Date("Sat Sep 26 2021")}>
Here is an example for you.
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import Countdown from "react-countdown";
// Random component
const Completionist = () => <span>You are good to go!</span>;
ReactDOM.render(
<Countdown date={new Date('2021-09-26T10:05:29.896Z').getTime()}>
<Completionist />
</Countdown>,
document.getElementById("root")
);

import {useState, useCallback} from 'react';
const defaultCount = 10;
const intervalGap = 300;
const Counter = () => {
const [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(defaultCount);
const startTimerWrapper = useCallback((func)=>{
let timeInterval: NodeJS.Timer;
return () => {
if(timeInterval) {

return val - 1
})
}), [])
return <>
<div> Counter App</div>
<div> <button onClick={timer}>Start/Reset</button></div>
<div> {timerCount}</div>
</>
}
export default Counter;

When you are using functional components the above code is a good option to do it:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import { MessageStrip } from "#ui5/webcomponents-react";
import "./Timer.scss";
const nMinuteSeconds = 60;
const nSecondInMiliseconds = 1000;
const convertMinutesToMiliseconds = (minute) =>
minute * nMinuteSeconds * nSecondInMiliseconds;
const convertMilisecondsToHour = (miliseconds) => new Date(miliseconds).toISOString().slice(11, -5);
export default function Counter({ minutes, onTimeOut }) {
let [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(
convertMinutesToMiliseconds(minutes)
);
let interval;
useEffect(() => {
if (interval) {
clearInterval(interval);
}
interval = setInterval(() => {
if (timerCount === 0 && interval) {
onTimeOut();
clearInterval(interval);
}
setTimerCount((timerCount -= nSecondInMiliseconds));
}, nSecondInMiliseconds);
}, []);
return (
<>
<MessageStrip design="Information" hide-close-button>
Time left: {convertMilisecondsToHour(timerCount)}
</MessageStrip>
</>
);
}

Here's a simple implementation using a custom hook:
import * as React from 'react';
// future time from where countdown will start decreasing
const futureTime = new Date( Date.now() + 5000 ).getTime(); // adding 5 seconds
export const useCountDown = (stop = false) => {
const [time, setTime] = React.useState(
futureTime - Date.now()
);
// ref to store interval which we can clear out later
// when stop changes through parent component (component that uses this hook)
// causing the useEffect callback to trigger again
const intervalRef = React.useRef<NodeJS.Timer | null>(null);
React.useEffect(() => {
if (intervalRef.current) {
clearInterval(intervalRef.current);
intervalRef.current = null;
return;
}
const interval = intervalRef.current = setInterval(() => {
setTime(futureTime - Date.now());
}, 1000);
return () => clearInterval(interval);
}, [stop]);
return getReturnValues(time);
};
const getReturnValues = (countDown: number) => {
const days = Math.floor(countDown / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
const hours = Math.floor(
(countDown % (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)) / (1000 * 60 * 60)
);
const minutes = Math.floor((countDown % (1000 * 60 * 60)) / (1000 * 60));
const seconds = Math.floor((countDown % (1000 * 60)) / 1000);
return [days, hours, minutes, seconds];
};
Example of using this hook:
function App() {
const [timerStopped, stopTimer] = React.useState(false);
const [,hours,minutes,seconds] = useCountDown(timerStopped);
// to stop the interval
if( !timerStopped && minutes + seconds <= 0 ) {
stopTimer(true);
}
return (
<div className="App">
Time Left: {hours}:{minutes}:{seconds}
{ timerStopped ? (
<h1>Time's up</h1>
) : null }
</div>
);
}

A simple 24-hour countdown that can easily be customized to fit different scenarios
setInterval(function time() {
let d = new Date();
let hours = 24 - d.getHours();
let min = 60 - d.getMinutes();
if ((min + "").length == 1) {
min = "0" + min;
}
let sec = 60 - d.getSeconds();
if ((sec + "").length == 1) {
sec = "0" + sec;
}
setState(hours + ":" + min + ":" + sec);
}, 1000);

The one downside with setInterval is that it can slow down the main thread. You can do a countdown timer using requestAnimationFrame instead to prevent this. For example, this is my generic countdown timer component:
class Timer extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
// here, getTimeRemaining is a helper function that returns an
// object with { total, seconds, minutes, hours, days }
this.state = { timeLeft: getTimeRemaining(props.expiresAt) }
}
// Wait until the component has mounted to start the animation frame
componentDidMount() {
this.start()
}
// Clean up by cancelling any animation frame previously scheduled
componentWillUnmount() {
this.stop()
}
start = () => {
this.frameId = requestAnimationFrame(this.tick)
}
tick = () => {
const timeLeft = getTimeRemaining(this.props.expiresAt)
if (timeLeft.total <= 0) {
this.stop()
// ...any other actions to do on expiration
} else {
this.setState(
{ timeLeft },
() => this.frameId = requestAnimationFrame(this.tick)
)
}
}
stop = () => {
cancelAnimationFrame(this.frameId)
}
render() {...}
}

Here is a TypeScript version of CountDown Timer in React. I used code of brother Masood and M.Georgiev

}
const convert_Mili_Seconds_To_Minute = (miliseconds:number) => {

}
const [timer_State, setTimer_State]=useState(0);
const [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(convert_Minutes_To_MiliSeconds(props.minutes));

}
let tempTimerCount = timerCount;
tempTimerCount -= Seconds_to_milliseconds;
setTimerCount(tempTimerCount);
},

As we don't want the timer at the highest priority than other states so we will use useTransition hook. delay is the time in seconds 180s = 3min.
import React, { useState, useEffect, useTransition } from "react";
const Timer = ({ delayResend = "180" }) => {
const [delay, setDelay] = useState(+delayResend);
const [minutes, setMinutes] = useState(0);
const [seconds, setSeconds] = useState(0);
const [isPending, startTransition] = useTransition();
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setInterval(() => {
startTransition(() => {
setDelay(delay - 1);
setMinutes(Math.floor(delay / 60));
setSeconds(Math.floor(delay % 60));
});
}, 1000);
if (delay === 0) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
return () => {
clearInterval(timer);
};
});
return (
<>
<span>
{minutes}:{seconds}

</>

};
export default Timer;

A click to start the countdown timer and a second one to Pause the timer in the same button

I want to click on (Start/Pause) Button in order start the coundown in the first click and the second click to pause it.It should be two options in the same button to start and pause the timer.
Here a descriptive image :
A created a separated button for start and pause the countdown but i want to make them in the same button.
Here my React Js code:
import React from "react";
export default class Timer extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
secondsElapsed: 1800000 / 1000 //time in seconds
};
}
getHours() {
return ("0" + Math.floor(this.state.secondsElapsed / 3600)).slice(-2);
}
getMinutes() {
return ("0" + Math.floor((this.state.secondsElapsed % 3600) / 60)).slice(
-2
);
}
getSeconds() {
return ("0" + (this.state.secondsElapsed % 60)).slice(-2);
}
startTime() {
var _this = this;
this.countdown = setInterval(function() {
_this.setState({ secondsElapsed: _this.state.secondsElapsed - 1 });
}, 1000);
}
resetTime() {
this.reset = this.setState({
secondsElapsed: (this.state.secondsElapsed = 0)
});
}
pauseTime() {
clearInterval(this.countdown);
}
render() {
return (
<div className="App">
<div className="timer-container">
<div className="bloc-timer"> {this.getHours()}</div>
<div className="bloc-timer"> :{this.getMinutes()}</div>
<div className="bloc-timer"> :{this.getSeconds()}</div>
</div>
<div>
<button onClick={() => this.startTime()}>Start</button>
<button onClick={() => this.pauseTime()}>Pause</button>
<button onClick={() => this.resetTime()}>Reset</button>
</div>
</div>
);
}
}

You can add an additional state variable isActive that keeps track of if your timer is active or not and choose what function to call when clicking the button based on that.
Example
class Timer extends React.Component {
state = {
isActive: false,
secondsElapsed: 1800000 / 1000 //time in seconds
};
getHours() {
return ("0" + Math.floor(this.state.secondsElapsed / 3600)).slice(-2);
}
getMinutes() {
return ("0" + Math.floor((this.state.secondsElapsed % 3600) / 60)).slice(
-2
);
}
getSeconds() {
return ("0" + (this.state.secondsElapsed % 60)).slice(-2);
}
startTime = () => {
this.setState({ isActive: true });
this.countdown = setInterval(() => {
this.setState(({ secondsElapsed }) => ({
secondsElapsed: secondsElapsed - 1
}));
}, 1000);
};
resetTime = () => {
clearInterval(this.countdown);
this.setState({
secondsElapsed: 1800000 / 1000,
isActive: false
});
};
pauseTime = () => {
clearInterval(this.countdown);
this.setState({ isActive: false });
};
render() {
return (
<div className="App">
<div className="timer-container">
<span className="bloc-timer"> {this.getHours()}</span>
<span className="bloc-timer"> :{this.getMinutes()}</span>
<span className="bloc-timer"> :{this.getSeconds()}</span>
</div>
<div>
<button
onClick={this.state.isActive ? this.pauseTime : this.startTime}
>
Start/Pause
</button>
<button onClick={this.resetTime}>Reset</button>
</div>
</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<Timer />, document.getElementById("root"));
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/16.6.3/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react-dom/16.6.3/umd/react-dom.production.min.js"></script>
<div id="root"></div>

You can add a Boolean to check the state of your timer. And trigger timer start or stop depending on its value. Basically add another function to change the state, and call startTime if it hasn't been started, and pauseTime it if has been started.

ReactJS Stopwatch, how to handle localstorage data

i have component where i count time (Stopwatch). everything is working fine. Start, stop of the clock reset. I wanted to add functionality that when i stop clock (handleTimerStop) set current state to localstorage in case if i close browser and want to return and want to start where i left clock paused. So when i stop clock items are setup to localstorage but when i want to restart clock it doesn't take data from local storage but start from scratch. Could you please help? also it will be great if someone can optimsie my code becasue i feel it can be done better.
thanks

These comparations are your problem.

This ain't an answer to your concrete question, but imo. a better approach at your code
This implementation is
independant of the render interval,
only writes to localStorage when you start/stop/reset it
and is not getting out of sync (even if it does not get rendered at all)
.
import React, { Component } from "react";
export default class Timer extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
try {
this.state = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem(this.props.localStorage));
} catch (error) {}
if (!this.state) {
this.state = this.saveChanges({
running: false,
value: 0
});
}
}
componentWillMount() {
if (this.state.running) {
this.timer = setInterval(
() => this.forceUpdate(),
this.props.interval | 0
);
}
}
componentWillUnmount() {
if (this.state.running) {
clearInterval(this.timer);
}
}
saveChanges(state) {
console.log("saveChanges", this.props.localStorage, state);
if (this.props.localStorage) {
localStorage.setItem(this.props.localStorage, JSON.stringify(state));
}
return state;
}
start = () => {
const now = Date.now();
this.setState(({ running, value }) => {
if (running) return null;
this.timer = setInterval(
() => this.forceUpdate(),
this.props.interval | 0
);
return this.saveChanges({
running: true,
value: value - now
});
});
};
stop = () => {
const now = Date.now();
this.setState(({ running, value }) => {
if (!running) return null;
clearInterval(this.timer);
return this.saveChanges({
running: false,
value: value + now
});
});
};
reset = () => {
const now = Date.now();
this.setState(({ running, value }) => {
return this.saveChanges({
running: false,
value: 0
});
//just reset the timer to 0, don' stop it
//return this.saveChanges({
// running,
// value: running? -now: 0
//});
});
};
render() {
const {
start, stop, reset,
state: { running, value }
} = this;
const timestamp = running ? Date.now() + value : value;
const h = Math.floor(timestamp / 3600000);
const m = Math.floor(timestamp / 60000) % 60;
const s = Math.floor(timestamp / 1000) % 60;
const ms = timestamp % 1000;
const _ = (nr, length = 2, padding = 0) =>

Countdown timer in React

I have seen lots of countdown timers in JavaScript and wanted to get one working in React.
I have borrowed this function I found online:
secondsToTime(secs){
let hours = Math.floor(secs / (60 * 60));
let divisor_for_minutes = secs % (60 * 60);
let minutes = Math.floor(divisor_for_minutes / 60);
let divisor_for_seconds = divisor_for_minutes % 60;
let seconds = Math.ceil(divisor_for_seconds);
let obj = {
"h": hours,
"m": minutes,
"s": seconds
};
return obj;
};
And then I have written this code myself
initiateTimer = () => {
let timeLeftVar = this.secondsToTime(60);
this.setState({ timeLeft: timeLeftVar })
};
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(this.timer, 1000);
this.setState({ interval: interval });
};
timer = () => {
if (this.state.timeLeft >0){
this.setState({ timeLeft: this.state.timeLeft -1 });
}
else {
clearInterval(this.state.interval);
//this.postToSlack();
}
};
Currently onclick it will set the time on screen to: Time Remaining: 1 m : 0 s
But it does not reduce it to Time Remaining: 0 m : 59 s and then Time Remaining: 0 m : 58 s etc etc
I think I need to call the function again with a different parameter. how can I go about doing this ?
Edit: I forgot to say, I would like the functionality so that I can use seconds to minutes & seconds

You have to setState every second with the seconds remaining (every time the interval is called). Here's an example:
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = { time: {}, seconds: 5 };
this.timer = 0;
this.startTimer = this.startTimer.bind(this);
this.countDown = this.countDown.bind(this);
}
secondsToTime(secs){
let hours = Math.floor(secs / (60 * 60));
let divisor_for_minutes = secs % (60 * 60);
let minutes = Math.floor(divisor_for_minutes / 60);
let divisor_for_seconds = divisor_for_minutes % 60;
let seconds = Math.ceil(divisor_for_seconds);
let obj = {
"h": hours,
"m": minutes,
"s": seconds
};
return obj;
}
componentDidMount() {
let timeLeftVar = this.secondsToTime(this.state.seconds);
this.setState({ time: timeLeftVar });
}
startTimer() {
if (this.timer == 0 && this.state.seconds > 0) {
this.timer = setInterval(this.countDown, 1000);
}
}
countDown() {
// Remove one second, set state so a re-render happens.
let seconds = this.state.seconds - 1;
this.setState({
time: this.secondsToTime(seconds),
seconds: seconds,
});
// Check if we're at zero.
if (seconds == 0) {
clearInterval(this.timer);
}
}
render() {
return(
<div>
<button onClick={this.startTimer}>Start</button>
m: {this.state.time.m} s: {this.state.time.s}
</div>
);
}
}

Here is a solution using hooks, Timer component, I'm replicating same logic above with hooks
import React from 'react'
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
const Timer = (props:any) => {
const {initialMinute = 0,initialSeconds = 0} = props;
const [ minutes, setMinutes ] = useState(initialMinute);
const [seconds, setSeconds ] = useState(initialSeconds);
useEffect(()=>{
let myInterval = setInterval(() => {
if (seconds > 0) {
setSeconds(seconds - 1);
}
if (seconds === 0) {
if (minutes === 0) {
clearInterval(myInterval)
} else {
setMinutes(minutes - 1);
setSeconds(59);
}
}
}, 1000)
return ()=> {
clearInterval(myInterval);
};
});
return (
<div>
{ minutes === 0 && seconds === 0
? null
: <h1> {minutes}:{seconds < 10 ? `0${seconds}` : seconds}</h1>
}
</div>
)
}
export default Timer;

Here is a simple implementation using hooks and useInterval implementation of #dan-abramov
import React, {useState, useEffect, useRef} from 'react'
import './styles.css'
const STATUS = {
STARTED: 'Started',
STOPPED: 'Stopped',
}
const INITIAL_COUNT = 120
export default function CountdownApp() {
const [secondsRemaining, setSecondsRemaining] = useState(INITIAL_COUNT)
const [status, setStatus] = useState(STATUS.STOPPED)
const secondsToDisplay = secondsRemaining % 60
const minutesRemaining = (secondsRemaining - secondsToDisplay) / 60
const minutesToDisplay = minutesRemaining % 60
const hoursToDisplay = (minutesRemaining - minutesToDisplay) / 60
const handleStart = () => {
setStatus(STATUS.STARTED)
}
const handleStop = () => {
setStatus(STATUS.STOPPED)
}
const handleReset = () => {
setStatus(STATUS.STOPPED)
setSecondsRemaining(INITIAL_COUNT)
}
useInterval(
() => {
if (secondsRemaining > 0) {
setSecondsRemaining(secondsRemaining - 1)
} else {
setStatus(STATUS.STOPPED)
}
},
status === STATUS.STARTED ? 1000 : null,
// passing null stops the interval
)
return (
<div className="App">

<div>Status: {status}</div>
</div>
)
}

Here is the codesandbox implementation: https://codesandbox.io/s/react-countdown-demo-gtr4u?file=/src/App.js

Basic idea showing counting down using Date.now() instead of subtracting one which will drift over time.
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
time: {
hours: 0,
minutes: 0,
seconds: 0,
milliseconds: 0,
},
duration: 2 * 60 * 1000,
timer: null
};
this.startTimer = this.start.bind(this);
}
msToTime(duration) {
let milliseconds = parseInt((duration % 1000));
let seconds = Math.floor((duration / 1000) % 60);
let minutes = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60)) % 60);
let hours = Math.floor((duration / (1000 * 60 * 60)) % 24);
hours = hours.toString().padStart(2, '0');
minutes = minutes.toString().padStart(2, '0');
seconds = seconds.toString().padStart(2, '0');
milliseconds = milliseconds.toString().padStart(3, '0');
return {
hours,
minutes,
seconds,
milliseconds
};
}
componentDidMount() {}
start() {
if (!this.state.timer) {
this.state.startTime = Date.now();
this.timer = window.setInterval(() => this.run(), 10);
}
}
run() {
const diff = Date.now() - this.state.startTime;
// If you want to count up
// this.setState(() => ({
// time: this.msToTime(diff)
// }));
// count down
let remaining = this.state.duration - diff;
if (remaining < 0) {
remaining = 0;
}
this.setState(() => ({
time: this.msToTime(remaining)
}));
if (remaining === 0) {
window.clearTimeout(this.timer);
this.timer = null;
}
}
render() {
return ( <
div >
<
button onClick = {
this.startTimer
} > Start < /button> {
this.state.time.hours
}: {
this.state.time.minutes
}: {
this.state.time.seconds
}. {
this.state.time.milliseconds
}:
<
/div>
);
}
}

simple resolution:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
const Timer = ({ delayResend = "180" }) => {
const [delay, setDelay] = useState(+delayResend);
const minutes = Math.floor(delay / 60);
const seconds = Math.floor(delay % 60);
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setInterval(() => {
setDelay(delay - 1);
}, 1000);
if (delay === 0) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
return () => {
clearInterval(timer);
};
});
return (
<>
<span>
{minutes}:{seconds}
</span>
</>
);
};
export default Timer;

The problem is in your "this" value.
Timer function cannot access the "state" prop because run in a different context. I suggest you to do something like this:
...
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(this.timer.bind(this), 1000);
this.setState({ interval });
};
As you can see I've added a "bind" method to your timer function. This allows the timer, when called, to access the same "this" of your react component (This is the primary problem/improvement when working with javascript in general).
Another option is to use another arrow function:
startTimer = () => {
let interval = setInterval(() => this.timer(), 1000);
this.setState({ interval });
};

install the package
npm install react-countdown --save
or
yarn add react-countdown
import the package to your file
import Countdown from 'react-countdown';
call the imported "Countdown" inside a render method and pass a date
<Countdown date={new Date('2021-09-26T10:05:29.896Z').getTime()}>
or
<Countdown date={new Date("Sat Sep 26 2021")}>
Here is an example for you.
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import Countdown from "react-countdown";
// Random component
const Completionist = () => <span>You are good to go!</span>;
ReactDOM.render(
<Countdown date={new Date('2021-09-26T10:05:29.896Z').getTime()}>
<Completionist />
</Countdown>,
document.getElementById("root")
);

functionality :
1)Start
2)Reset
functional component
import {useState, useCallback} from 'react';
const defaultCount = 10;
const intervalGap = 300;
const Counter = () => {
const [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(defaultCount);
const startTimerWrapper = useCallback((func)=>{
let timeInterval: NodeJS.Timer;
return () => {
if(timeInterval) {
clearInterval(timeInterval)
}
setTimerCount(defaultCount)
timeInterval = setInterval(() => {
func(timeInterval)
}, intervalGap)
}
}, [])
const timer = useCallback(startTimerWrapper((intervalfn: NodeJS.Timeout) => {
setTimerCount((val) => {
if(val === 0 ) {
clearInterval(intervalfn);
return val
}
return val - 1
})
}), [])
return <>
<div> Counter App</div>
<div> <button onClick={timer}>Start/Reset</button></div>
<div> {timerCount}</div>
</>
}
export default Counter;

When you are using functional components the above code is a good option to do it:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import { MessageStrip } from "#ui5/webcomponents-react";
import "./Timer.scss";
const nMinuteSeconds = 60;
const nSecondInMiliseconds = 1000;
const convertMinutesToMiliseconds = (minute) =>
minute * nMinuteSeconds * nSecondInMiliseconds;
const convertMilisecondsToHour = (miliseconds) => new Date(miliseconds).toISOString().slice(11, -5);
export default function Counter({ minutes, onTimeOut }) {
let [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(
convertMinutesToMiliseconds(minutes)
);
let interval;
useEffect(() => {
if (interval) {
clearInterval(interval);
}
interval = setInterval(() => {
if (timerCount === 0 && interval) {
onTimeOut();
clearInterval(interval);
}
setTimerCount((timerCount -= nSecondInMiliseconds));
}, nSecondInMiliseconds);
}, []);
return (
<>
<MessageStrip design="Information" hide-close-button>
Time left: {convertMilisecondsToHour(timerCount)}
</MessageStrip>
</>
);
}

Here's a simple implementation using a custom hook:
import * as React from 'react';
// future time from where countdown will start decreasing
const futureTime = new Date( Date.now() + 5000 ).getTime(); // adding 5 seconds
export const useCountDown = (stop = false) => {
const [time, setTime] = React.useState(
futureTime - Date.now()
);
// ref to store interval which we can clear out later
// when stop changes through parent component (component that uses this hook)
// causing the useEffect callback to trigger again
const intervalRef = React.useRef<NodeJS.Timer | null>(null);
React.useEffect(() => {
if (intervalRef.current) {
clearInterval(intervalRef.current);
intervalRef.current = null;
return;
}
const interval = intervalRef.current = setInterval(() => {
setTime(futureTime - Date.now());
}, 1000);
return () => clearInterval(interval);
}, [stop]);
return getReturnValues(time);
};
const getReturnValues = (countDown: number) => {
const days = Math.floor(countDown / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
const hours = Math.floor(
(countDown % (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)) / (1000 * 60 * 60)
);
const minutes = Math.floor((countDown % (1000 * 60 * 60)) / (1000 * 60));
const seconds = Math.floor((countDown % (1000 * 60)) / 1000);
return [days, hours, minutes, seconds];
};
Example of using this hook:
function App() {
const [timerStopped, stopTimer] = React.useState(false);
const [,hours,minutes,seconds] = useCountDown(timerStopped);
// to stop the interval
if( !timerStopped && minutes + seconds <= 0 ) {
stopTimer(true);
}
return (
<div className="App">
Time Left: {hours}:{minutes}:{seconds}
{ timerStopped ? (
<h1>Time's up</h1>
) : null }
</div>
);
}

A simple 24-hour countdown that can easily be customized to fit different scenarios
setInterval(function time() {
let d = new Date();
let hours = 24 - d.getHours();
let min = 60 - d.getMinutes();
if ((min + "").length == 1) {
min = "0" + min;
}
let sec = 60 - d.getSeconds();
if ((sec + "").length == 1) {
sec = "0" + sec;
}
setState(hours + ":" + min + ":" + sec);
}, 1000);

The one downside with setInterval is that it can slow down the main thread. You can do a countdown timer using requestAnimationFrame instead to prevent this. For example, this is my generic countdown timer component:
class Timer extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
// here, getTimeRemaining is a helper function that returns an
// object with { total, seconds, minutes, hours, days }
this.state = { timeLeft: getTimeRemaining(props.expiresAt) }
}
// Wait until the component has mounted to start the animation frame
componentDidMount() {
this.start()
}
// Clean up by cancelling any animation frame previously scheduled
componentWillUnmount() {
this.stop()
}
start = () => {
this.frameId = requestAnimationFrame(this.tick)
}
tick = () => {
const timeLeft = getTimeRemaining(this.props.expiresAt)
if (timeLeft.total <= 0) {
this.stop()
// ...any other actions to do on expiration
} else {
this.setState(
{ timeLeft },
() => this.frameId = requestAnimationFrame(this.tick)
)
}
}
stop = () => {
cancelAnimationFrame(this.frameId)
}
render() {...}
}

Here is a TypeScript version of CountDown Timer in React. I used code of brother Masood and M.Georgiev
import React, {useState, useEffect, useCallback} from "react";
const Minute_to_Seconds = 60;
const Seconds_to_milliseconds = 1000;
export interface CounterProps {
minutes:number,
statusAlert: (status: string)=>void,
}
export interface TimerProps {
initialMinute: number,
initialSeconds: number,
}
const Counter: React.FC<CounterProps> = (props) => {
const convert_Minutes_To_MiliSeconds = (minute:number) => {
return minute * Minute_to_Seconds * Seconds_to_milliseconds;
}
const convert_Mili_Seconds_To_Hour = (miliseconds:number) => {
return new Date(miliseconds).toISOString().slice(11, -5);
}
const convert_Mili_Seconds_To_Minute = (miliseconds:number) => {
return new Date(miliseconds).toISOString().slice(11, -5);
}
const [timer_State, setTimer_State]=useState(0);
const [timerCount, setTimerCount] = useState(convert_Minutes_To_MiliSeconds(props.minutes));
useEffect(() => {
if (timerCount > 0) {
const interval = setInterval(() => {
if (timer_State === 0) {
props.statusAlert("start");
setTimer_State(1);
}
let tempTimerCount = timerCount;
tempTimerCount -= Seconds_to_milliseconds;
setTimerCount(tempTimerCount);
},
(timer_State === 0)
? 0
: Seconds_to_milliseconds
);
return () => {
clearInterval(interval);
}
}
else{
props.statusAlert("end");
}
}, [
timer_State,
timerCount,
props,
]);
return (
<p>
Time left: {convert_Mili_Seconds_To_Hour(timerCount)}
</p>
);
}
const Timer: React.FC<TimerProps> = (props) => {
const [ minutes, setMinutes ] = useState(props.initialMinute);
const [seconds, setSeconds ] = useState(props.initialSeconds);
useEffect(()=>{
const myInterval = setInterval(() => {
if (seconds > 0) {
setSeconds(seconds - 1);
}
if (seconds === 0) {
if (minutes === 0) {
clearInterval(myInterval)
} else {
setMinutes(minutes - 1);
setSeconds(59);
}
}
}, 1000)
return ()=> {
clearInterval(myInterval);
};
});
return (
<div>
{ ((minutes === 0) && (seconds === 0))
? "Press F5 to Refresh"
: <h1> {minutes}:{seconds < 10 ? `0${seconds}` : seconds}</h1>
}
</div>
)
}
const RCTAPP=()=> {
const status_Alert2=(status: string)=> {
console.log("__________________________==================== status: ", status);
if (status==="start"){
alert("Timer started");
}
else{
alert("Time's up");
}
}
return (
<div style={{textAlign: "center"}}>
<Counter
minutes={1}
// minutes={0.1}
statusAlert={status_Alert2}
/>
<Timer
initialMinute={0}
initialSeconds={30}
/>
</div>
);
}
export default RCTAPP;

Typescript/Hooks/Shorter version of #Masood's answer
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
type Props = {
initMin: number,
initSecs: number
};
const Timer = ({initMins, initSecs}: Props) => {
// Combining useState values together for brevity
const [ [mins, secs], setCountdown ] = useState([initMins, initSecs]);
/**
* Triggers each second and whenever mins/seconds updates itself.
*/
useEffect(() => {
// Timer that decrements itself each second and updates the mins/seconds downwards
let timerInterval = setInterval(() => {
// Countdown timer up, clear timer and do nothing
if (mins === 0 && secs === 0) {
clearInterval(timerInterval);
} else if (secs === 0) {
// Might be correct to set seconds to 59, but not sure
// should decrement from 60 seconds yeah?
setCountdown([mins - 1, 60]);
} else {
setCountdown([mins, secs - 1]);
}
}, 1000);
return () => {
clearInterval(timerInterval);
};
}, [mins, secs]);
return (
<div>
{ mins === 0 && secs === 0
? null
: <h1> {mins}:{secs < 10 ? `0${secs}` : secs}</h1>
}
</div>
)
}
export default Timer;

As we don't want the timer at the highest priority than other states so we will use useTransition hook. delay is the time in seconds 180s = 3min.
import React, { useState, useEffect, useTransition } from "react";
const Timer = ({ delayResend = "180" }) => {
const [delay, setDelay] = useState(+delayResend);
const [minutes, setMinutes] = useState(0);
const [seconds, setSeconds] = useState(0);
const [isPending, startTransition] = useTransition();
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setInterval(() => {
startTransition(() => {
setDelay(delay - 1);
setMinutes(Math.floor(delay / 60));
setSeconds(Math.floor(delay % 60));
});
}, 1000);
if (delay === 0) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
return () => {
clearInterval(timer);
};
});
return (
<>
<span>
{minutes}:{seconds}
</span>
</>
);
};
export default Timer;
