+local GTiming = {
+  timer = {
+    --- ### Description
+    --- Create a simple timer for calling the `callback` function continuously.
+    ---
+    --- This is a small wrapper around [`gears.timer`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#), that creates a timer based on callback.
+    --- The timer will run continuously and call callback every [`timeout`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#timeout) seconds.
+    --- It is stopped when `callback` returns false,
+    --- when `callback` throws an error or when the `:stop()`
+    --- method is called on the return value.
+    --- ### Parameters
+    --- @param timeout number Timeout in seconds.
+    --- @param callback function Function to run.
+    --- ### Returns
+    --- @return Timer timer The new timer object.
+    ---
+    --- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#start_new)
+    start_new = function(timeout, callback) end,
+
+    --- ### Description
+    --- Create a simple timer for calling the `callback` function continuously.
+    ---
+    --- This function is almost identical to [`gears.timer.start_new`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#start_new).
+    --- The only difference is that this does not prevent the callback function from being garbage collected.
+    --- In addition to the conditions in [`gears.timer.start_new`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#start_new),
+    --- this timer will also stop if `callback` was garbage collected since the previous run.
+    --- ### Parameters
+    --- @param timeout number Timeout in seconds.
+    --- @param callback function Function to run.
+    --- ### Returns
+    --- @return Timer timer The new timer object.
+    ---
+    --- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#weak_start_new)
+    weak_start_new = function(timeout, callback) end,
+
+    --- ### Description
+    --- Run all pending delayed calls now.
+    --- This function should best not be used at all, because it means that less batching happens and the delayed calls run prematurely.
+    ---
+    --- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#run_delayed_calls_now)
+    run_delayed_calls_now = function() end,
+
+    --- ### Description
+    --- Call the given function at the end of the current GLib event loop iteration.
+    --- ### Parameters
+    --- @param callback function The function that should be called.
+    --- @param ... any Arguments to the callback function
+    ---
+    --- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#delayed_call)
+    delayed_call = function(callback, ...) end,
+  },
+}
+
+--- ### Description
+--- Create a new timer object.
+---
+--- `call_now` only takes effect when a `callback` is provided. `single_shot`, on the other hand, also stops signals connected to the [`timeout`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#timeout) signal.
+---
+--- Specifying a function `func` as `args.callback` is equivalent to calling `:connect_signal(func)` on the timer object.
+--- ### Parameters
+--- @param args TimerDescriptor The arguments.
+--- ### Returns
+--- @return Timer timer A new timer.
+---
+--- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#gears.timer)
+GTiming.timer = function(args) end
+
+--- @class Timer : Object
+--- @field started boolean The timer is started.
+--- @field timeout TimerPropertyTimeout The timer timeout value.
+local Timer = {}
+
+--- ### Description
+--- Connect to a signal.
+--- ### Parameters
+--- @param name TimerSignal The name of the signal.
+--- @param action function The callback to call when the signal is emitted.
+--- ### Inherits
+--- - [`Object`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/utility_libraries/gears.object.html#gears.object) from [`gears.object`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/utility_libraries/gears.object.html).
+---
+--- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#connect_signal)
+function Timer:connect_signal(name, action) end
+
+--- ### Description
+--- Connect to a signal weakly.
+--- ### Parameters
+--- @param name TimerSignal The name of the signal.
+--- @param action function The callback to call when the signal is emitted.
+--- ### Inherits
+--- - [`Object`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/utility_libraries/gears.object.html#gears.object) from [`gears.object`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/utility_libraries/gears.object.html).
+---
+--- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#weak_connect_signal)
+function Timer:weak_connect_signal(name, action) end
+
+--- ### Description
+--- Emit a signal.
+--- ### Parameters
+--- @param name TimerSignal The name of the signal.
+--- @param ... any Extra arguments for the callback functions. Each connected function receives the object as first argument and then any extra arguments that are given to [`emit_signal()`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#emit_signal).
+--- ### Inherits
+--- - [`Object`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/utility_libraries/gears.object.html#gears.object) from [`gears.object`](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/utility_libraries/gears.object.html).

+function Timer:emit_signal(name, ...) end
+
+--- ### Description
+--- Start the timer.
+--- ### Emit Signals
+--- ```
+--- -- When the timer starts.
+--- start()
+--- ```
+---
+--- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#start)
+function Timer:start() end
+
+--- ### Description
+--- Stop the timer.
+---
+--- Does nothing if the timer isn't running.
+--- ### Emit Signals
+--- ```
+--- -- When the timer stops.
+--- stop()
+--- ```
+---
+--- [View documents](https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/core_components/gears.timer.html#stop)
+function Timer:stop() end
+
+--- ### Description
+--- Restart the timer.
+--- This is equivalent to stopping the timer if it is running and then starting it.
+--- ### Emit Signals
+--- ```
+--- -- When the timer starts.
+--- start()
+--- -- When the timer stops.
+--- stop()
+--- ```
