You question yourself how you can execute your own logic while basalt is also active? There are multiple ways of doing that:
|
|
|
|
## Method 1:
|
|
Using parallel.waitForAll
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
local basalt = dofile("basalt.lua")
|
|
|
|
local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame("mainFrame"):show()-- lets create a frame and a button without functionality
|
|
mainFrame:addButton("aButton"):onClick(function() end):show()
|
|
|
|
local function yourCustomHandler()
|
|
while true do
|
|
-- add your logic here
|
|
os.sleep(1) -- you need something which calls coroutine.yield(), yes os.sleep does that os.pullEvent() aswell
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
parallel.waitForAll(basalt.autoUpdate, yourCustomHandler) -- here it will handle your function (yourCustomHandler) and basalts handlers at the time
|
|
```
|
|
You can read [here (tweaked.cc)](https://tweaked.cc/module/parallel.html) what exactly parallel.waitForAll() does
|
|
|
|
## Method 2:
|
|
Using threads
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
local basalt = dofile("basalt.lua")
|
|
|
|
local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame("mainFrame"):show()-- lets create a frame, a button without functionality and a thread
|
|
mainFrame:addButton("aButton"):onClick(function() end):show()
|
|
local thread = mainFrame:addThread("customHandlerExecutingThread")
|
|
|
|
local function yourCustomHandler()
|
|
while true do
|
|
-- add your logic here
|
|
os.sleep(1) -- you need something which calls coroutine.yield(), yes os.sleep does that os.pullEvent() aswell
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
thread:start(yourCustomHandler) -- this will create a coroutine and starts the coroutine, os.sleep does the rest, so you just have to call start once.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Method 3:
|
|
Using timers
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
local basalt = dofile("basalt.lua")
|
|
|
|
local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame("mainFrame"):show()-- lets create a frame, a button without functionality and a timer
|
|
mainFrame:addButton("aButton"):onClick(function() end):show()
|
|
local timer = mainFrame:addTimer("customHandlerExecutingTimer")
|
|
|
|
local function yourCustomHandler()
|
|
-- add your logic here
|
|
end
|
|
timer:onCall(yourCustomHandler):setTime(1, -1):start() -- this will call your function every second until you :cancel() the timer
|
|
``` |
