Below is the code snippet from my Vue application:
mounted: function () {
this.timer = setInterval(async () => {
if (this.progress >= 1) {
this.progress = 1
clearInterval(this.timer)
}
console.log('update')
const id = this.$route.params.id
const progOut = await this.api.get(`/api/mu/job/${id}/status`)
const response = progOut.data
this.progress = response.data.progress / 100
this.state = response.data.status
}, 7000)
},
The issue I'm facing is that instead of executing the get request every 7 seconds, it seems to be making the call approximately every 500ms. Despite going through other answers, I believe this is the correct approach but there are too many requests being made.
I want to know the right way to make a function within the setInterval actually wait for the timeout before executing again.
Edit: Here's the final revised version of my code in case it helps someone dealing with a similar situation:
methods: {
redirect (page) {
if (page === 'FINISHED') {
this.$router.push({
name: 'viewReport',
params: { id: 4 }
})
} else {
this.$router.push({
name: 'errorOnReport',
params: { id: 13 }
})
}
}
},
watch: {
state: async function (newVal, old) {
console.log('old ' + old + ' newVal ' + newVal)
if (newVal === 'FAILED' || newVal === 'FINISHED') {
this.redirect(newVal)
}
}
},
data () {
return {
state: null,
timer: null,
progress: 0.0,
progressStr: '0%'
}
},
mounted () {
const update = async () => {
if (this.progress >= 1) {
this.progress = 1
}
console.log('update ' + new Date())
const id = this.$route.params.id
const progOut = await this.api.get(`/api/mu/job/${id}/status`)
const response = progOut.data
this.state = response.data.status
this.progress = response.data.progress / 100
this.progressStr = response.data.progress + '%'
}
update()
this.timer = setInterval(update, 10000)
},
beforeUnmount () {
clearInterval(this.timer)
}
