A timer is a component that fires an event once after a certain delay or periodically at a regular interval.

Parameters:
  • interval (datetime or float number) – the delay or interval to wait for until the event is fired. If interval is specified as datetime, the interval is recalculated as the time span from now to the given datetime.
  • event (Event) – the event to fire.

If the optional keyword argument persist is set to True, the event will be fired repeatedly. Else the timer fires the event once and then unregisters itself.
