<para>
Declares timer route which will be called in specific interval.
</para>
<para>
The format is:
</para>
<programlisting>
declare_timer = declare_timer_syntax
</programlisting>
<para>
<emphasis>timer_id</emphasis> is timer identifier, <emphasis>route</emphasis> is handler to be called when
timer is triggered, <emphasis>interval</emphasis> is timer interval in milliseconds, <emphasis>slow_fast</emphasis>
determines if handler will be hooked in slow or fast timer queue, fast timer handler returns
as quickly as possible, slow timer handler may spend longer time, see ser/doc/timers.txt documentation. Use <emphasis>enable</emphasis>
to enable timer when ser is starting, otherwise use <function>timer_enable</function> to start it later.
</para>

</title>
<para>
Enable/disable timer route specified by <varname>timer_id</varname>. Because of timer core API the callback
is not disabled immediately but is removed from handler by itself not to decrease performance.
Disabling and enabling in sequence may be tricky.
<emphasis>timer_id</emphasis> references to timer declared by <varname>declare_timer</varname>.

<section id="timer.timer.timer_id.enabled">

otherwise returns false ("0").

<title>Using timer module for testing a functionality</title>
<para>
The timer module may be used to test a functionality being developed and
not requiring real request.A developer may put tested code in route section
which is called once after ser starts.
</para>
<programlisting>
loadmodule "timer";
loadmodule "xprint";
modparam("timer", "declare_timer", "TIMER_TEST=TEST,100,,enable");
route {
xplog("L_E","main route");
}

xplog("L_E","test start\n");
# add here tested functionality
xplog("L_E","test end\n");
