    Function useInterval

    • The replacement for window.setInterval that schedules a function to be repeatedly called with a fixed time delay between each call. Interval is cancelled when component is unmounted or when a new interval is scheduled.

      All functions that were scheduled with the same delay are invoked synchronously across all components that use this hook.

      Intervals must be scheduled/canceled after the component is mounted. Before that, it is a no-op.

      Returns [schedule: Schedule, cancel: () => void]

      const [schedule, cancel] = useInterval();

      useEffect(() => {
      // Cancels currently scheduled callback and schedules the new one
      schedule(
      (a, b) => {
      doSomething(a, b);
      },
      500, // Interval delay
      a, b, // Varargs that are passed to the callback
      );

      // Stops invoking the callback that was last provided to schedule()
      cancel();
      }, []);
