Function: Simple Timer

Enterprise Edition

Goal: Create a Simple Timer that triggers once per mutation.

This function simpleTimer merely demonstrates a basic Evening Timer.
Requires a metadata bucket and a source bucket.
Will operate on any mutation where the KEY or meta.id starts with "simpletimer:".
The result of processing the mutation is a Timer that will be executed approximately 30 seconds in the future.
For more details on Timers refer to Timers.
For an example of a recurring Timer refer to: Recurring Timer.

simpleTimer
Input Data/Mutation
Output Data/Logged

function TimerCallback(context) {
    log('From TimerCallback: timer fired with context', context);
    // do any sort of recurring work here, just update a date_stamp in a doc
}

function OnUpdate(doc, meta) {
    // You would typically filter to mutations of interest
    if (! meta.id.startsWith("simpletimer:")) return;

    // Make a Date 30 seconds in the future
    var thirtySecFromNow = new Date(); // Get current time & add 30 sec. to it.
    thirtySecFromNow.setSeconds(thirtySecFromNow.getSeconds() + 30);

    // Timers require an id
    var timer_id = meta.id;
    // Timers can access a context when they fire
    var context = {"id": meta.id, "random": Math.random(), "sched": thirtySecFromNow, doc: doc}

    // crate the Timer
    createTimer(TimerCallback, thirtySecFromNow, timer_id, context);
    log("From OnUpdate createTimer(TimerCallback, "+thirtySecFromNow+","+ timer_id+",", context);
}
