How to resume timer on ajax requests

[bhavikji]

hello, I have implemented this plugin and it is working like but when I am requesting via ajax the timer is not resuming and continue to countdown the seconds because of idle session

I have further looked into stack overflow and tried couple of things as suggested but that too didn't worked for me.
1st I have tried the answer which I got here
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35143230/jquery-ajax-aborted-in-laravel-5-2-using-jquery-idle-timeout

ie., either commenting out the ajax timeout or call it on ajax success but there I got timer appended into existing timer instead of resuming the exisitng timer and thus logging out after the completion of 1st timer.

2nd I tried to call it on ajaxSuccess function but that too gave me the same above mentioned problem

Now, I would be thankful If you help me out to solve this issue I want to resume the timer like it is resuming on click or reload of the page after every ajax call.

Due to my own ignorance (I'm sure) I ended up reorganizing the code into a modular fashion instead of it being in an object literal, then exposed a new 'Resume' method which just has the code for the on click event for the popup. I just call that method in an ajaxSuccess.

I'm sure it could have been done in an easier way instead of how I did it but for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to expose another 'resume' method to be called externally in the object literal way the code has been rewritten originally.

If you want/still need, I'll post the code here.

Nevermind - I just forked and uploaded it. I'm sure you can find it on my profile.

yeah I need that.

Here's a link to the repo with my changes:

I just happened to look at other forks though and saw that someone else has already done this by just exposing the resume method in a way that I'm sure I tried (but I guess not :( ). Maybe that one would work better for you since there are fewer changes to the original library so reducing the chance for new bugs being created:
