# cocos.custom_clocks module

Custom clocks used by cocos to perform special tasks, like:
  - recording a cocos app as a sequence of snapshots with an exact, fixed framerate
  - jump in a predefined sequence of timestamps taking snapshots

dev notes: There’s code duplication here, but having separated codepaths would help to follow changes in pyglet 1.2dev. When released, we could refactor this with some confidence.

References to the classes defined here are discouraged in code outside this module because of possible changes.

The public interface should be
  - get_recorder_clock
  - set_app_clock

class `AutotestClock`(screen_sampler)

  Bases: `pyglet.clock.Clock`

  Make frames follow a test plan

  This class is compatible with pyglet 1.1.4release, it is not compatible with pyglet 1.2dev

  `get_sleep_time`(sleep_idle)
  `tick`(poll=False)

class `AutotestClock_12dev`(screen_sampler)

  Bases: `pyglet.clock.Clock`

  Make frames follow a test plan

  This class is compatible with pyglet 1.2dev, it is not compatible with pyglet 1.1.4release

  `get_sleep_time`(sleep_idle)

    sleep time between frames; 0.0 as as we want to run as fast as possible

  `update_time`()
    Get the (fake) elapsed time since the last call to update_time
      Additionally, take snapshots.

    Return type: | float
    Returns: | The number of seconds since the last update_time, or 0 if this was the first time it was called.

class `ScreenReaderClock`(framerate, template, duration)

  Bases: `pyglet.clock.Clock`

  Make frames happen every 1/framerate and takes screenshots

  This class is compatible with pyglet 1.1.4release, it is not compatible with pyglet 1.2dev

  `tick`(poll=False)

    Signify that one frame has passed.

class `ScreenReaderClock_12dev`(framerate, template, duration)

  Bases: `pyglet.clock.Clock`

  Make frames happen every 1/framerate and takes screenshots

  This class is compatible with pyglet 1.2dev, it is not compatible with pyglet 1.1.4release

  `get_sleep_time`(sleep_idle)

    sleep time between frames; 0.0 as as we want to run as fast as possible

  `update_time`()
    Get the (fake) elapsed time since the last call to update_time
      Additionally, take snapshots.

    Return type: | float
    Returns: | The number of seconds since the last update_time, or 0 if this was the first time it was called.

`get_autotest_clock`(sampler)

  Returns a clock object suitable to be used as a pyglet app clock, which will follow a test plan to advance time and take snapshots.

  The clock object class depends on the pyglet version, and is determined automatically.

  Parameters: | sampler : obj obj with interface sampler.next(last_app_time) -> next_app_time Drives the app trough the desired states, take snapshots and handles the app termination conditions.

`get_recorder_clock`(framerate, template, duration=0)

  Returns a clock object suitable to be used as a pyglet app clock, which will provide a steady framerate, and saves a snapshot for each frame from time=0 to time=duration

  The clock object class depends on the pyglet version, and is set automatically

  Parameters: | framerate : int the number of frames per second template : str snapshot filenames will be template%frame_number (ex: “s%d.png” -> s0.png, s1.png...) duration : float the amount of seconds to record, or 0 for infinite

`set_app_clock`(clock)

  Sets the cocos (or pyglet) app clock to a custom one
