Timers never called with uv.run(uv.RUN_ONCE)

[tbastos]

Hey, I'm trying to run my event loop interleaved with uv.run() like this:

local function run()
  while step() do
    uv.run(uv.RUN_ONCE)
  end
end

But uv.run(uv.RUN_ONCE) never calls my callbacks. If I change to uv.run() the callbacks are called correctly, but then I cannot call step() every loop. Any idea why uv.RUN_ONCE doesn't work?

I could set an idle callback, but then uv.run() would never block to wait for IO, which is something I want. All I want is for step() to be called after every uv loop, and uv should block. Any idea? Neither uv.check() nor uv.prepare() worked as I expected.

Thanks for the help!

Just tested

local uv = require "lluv"

print(uv._VERSION)
print(uv.version())

uv.timer():start(1000, function()
    print "hello"
end)

uv.timer():start(2000, function()
    print "world"
end)

local i = 0
while uv.run(uv.RUN_ONCE) > 0 do
    i = i + 1
    print(i)
end

print("!!!")

output is

0.1.3-dev
1.7.5
hello
1
2
world
!!!

Indeed it works 👍 There was a bug in my code, your code helped me to find it... Thanks!
