Widget:Countdown

Description

This widget counts down to a time supplied to it, optionally continuing to count down to further times in specifyable intervals after reaching it.

Parameters

target

A timestamp specifing the time that should be counted down to expressed as epoch seconds.

interval

The interval to count down to after the specified target time in seconds.

If specified as zero the countdown will stop after reaching the target time.

If specified as a positive number the countdown will count down first to the target time and then, after reaching the target time, to <target time>+interval*<n>. <n> starts out as 1 and increases every time the previous target so determined is surpassed.

ns

namespace
