Wait

Overview

The Wait Component delays message processing for a specified time before forwarding the original message. This component allows controlled execution timing in workflows.

Usage

This component waits for a defined interval or until a specified date and time before sending the message to the output port.

Input Ports

Port
Description

in

Receives a message to be delayed.

Input Properties

Property
Type
Description

interval

string

Defines how long to wait before forwarding the message (e.g., 5m, 2h, 1d). Units: m (minutes), h (hours), d (days), w (weeks), M (months), y (years).

until

string

A specific date-time value to wait until before forwarding the message (ISO 8601 format).

Output Ports

Port
Description

out

Sends the message after the delay period.

Processing Logic

  1. Receive Message: Accepts input and determines wait time.

  2. Compute Delay: Uses interval or until to schedule message forwarding.

  3. Hold Execution: Waits for the specified time before processing.

  4. Send Message: After the delay, the original message is forwarded.

Notes

  • Flexible Delays: Supports both relative time intervals and absolute date-time scheduling.

  • Accurate Timing: Uses internal scheduling to ensure precise message delivery.

  • Workflow Control: Useful for rate limiting, execution sequencing, and scheduled triggers.

This component is ideal for workflows that require delayed execution, sequential processing, or scheduling based on specific timing requirements.
