I want to perform an event every 10 minutes so I'm following this code.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54827455/how-to-implement-timer-with-kotlin-coroutines

val tickerChannel = ticker(delayMillis = 10 * 60_000, initialDelayMillis = 0)

repeat(10) {
    tickerChannel.receive()
    println("TIMER SUCCESS")
}

I want it to repeat forever though. I'm probably missing something dumb, but can I signify forever somehow, or do I have to use Integer.MAX_VALUE?

how about while(true)?

[Colton Idle]

So just wrapping the repeat with a while statement. Or do you mean replacing the repeat statement with while?

Replacing repeat with while, that’s how I understand you want to it to work — receive from ticker channel forever
