Wait State Class

Wait state causes the interpreter to delay the machine from continuing for a specified time. The time can be specified as a wait duration, specified in seconds, or an absolute expiry time, specified as an ISO-8601 extended offset date-time format string.

Method new()

The Wait state **must contain exactly one** of `seconds`, `seconds_path`, `timestamp`, or `timestamp_path`.

Usage

Wait$new(
  state_id,
  seconds = NULL,
  seconds_path = NULL,
  timestamp = NULL,
  timestamp_path = NULL,
  comment = NULL,
  input_path = NULL,
  output_path = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

state_id

(str): State name whose length **must be** less than or equal to 128 unicode characters. State names **must be** unique within the scope of the whole state machine.

seconds

(int): Wait duration specified in seconds.

seconds_path

(str): Path applied to the state's input to select the wait duration in seconds.

timestamp

(str): Absolute expiry time, specified as an ISO-8601 extended offset date-time format string.

timestamp_path

(str): Path applied to the state's input to select the timestamp to be used for wait duration.

comment

(str, optional): Human-readable comment or description. (default: None)

input_path

(str, optional): Path applied to the state’s raw input to select some or all of it; that selection is used by the state. (default: '$')

output_path

(str, optional): Path applied to the state’s output, producing the effective output which serves as the raw input for the next state. (default: '$')
