# Stopwatch

Stopwatch is a simple stopwatch-like timer that can emit events. It currently works only in seconds and will parse a string for seconds, minutes, and hours, and fractions thereof.

## Example usage

### Creating instances
```javascript
// Node
var Stopwatch = require('stopwatch-emitter').Stopwatch;
var stopwatch1 = new Stopwatch('5m');
var stopwatch2 = new Stopwatch('30s');

// Browser
var Stopwatch = new Stopwatch('0.5h');
```

### Main methods
```javascript
var stopwatch = new Stopwatch('5m');

// Start
stopwatch.start();

// Stop
stopwatch.stop();

// Pause
stopwatch.pause();

// Restart from any spot
stopwatch.restart();
```

### Events
Stopwatch implements a classic event emitter. The node version uses the node event emitter and the browser version uses Oliver Caldwell's implementation of [EventEmitter](https://github.com/Wolfy87/EventEmitter) (thanks!). All events have the same name as the method that invokes them. An additional event `tick` is also available which, as you might imagine, is called every second the stopwatch ticks.
```javascript
var stopwatch = new Stopwatch('5m');

stopwatch.on('start', function(){
  console.log('Started!');
});

stopwatch.on('pause', function(){
  console.log('Paused!');
});

stopwatch.start(); // Started!
stopwatch.pause(); // Paused!

stopwatch.on('tick', function(){
  console.log('Tick!');
});

stopwatch.restart();
// Tick!
// Tick!

```

### Other methods
Stopwatch also have a few getters for time remaining, current time, and the max time, all in seconds. It also has an isRunning() call.
```javascript
var stopwatch = new Stopwatch('60s');

stopwatch.getCurrentTime(); // 0
stopwatch.getMaxTime(); // 60

// Start and wait 20 seconds...
stopwatch.start()

stopwatch.getRemainingTime(); // 40
stopwatch.isRunning(); // true
```
