Repeater for blocks of Ruby

Question

I've written a module for repeating blocks of code, generally to cover issues related to eventual consistency and testing screen elements which may take some time to fully load. It looks like this:

class Repeater
  def initialize(&block)
    @repeat_block = block
  end

  def repeat(times: 25, delay: 0.2)
    result = nil
    times.times do
      result = @repeat_block.call
      break if @until_block.present? && @until_block.call
      sleep(delay)
    end
    result
  end

  def until(&block)
    @until_block = block
    self
  end
end

The Repeater takes two blocks of code, one to be run and the second to check for an exit criteria. Optionally the number of repeats and delays can be overwritten after the .repeat method.

This is implemented in many places throughout the codebase, an example of such is:

  result = false
  Repeater.new do
    result = event_present_in_database
  end.until do
    result
  end.repeat(times: 10, delay: 0.1)
  result

In this case the event_present_in_database method is being repeated called until it returns true instead of false, which indicates that the event has been created as expected, or else times out indicating there's an issue.

This certainly works for what I want it to do, however it doesn't seem very neat and I'm sure it could be tidied up. I know Ruby has all sorts of tricks that I've yet to come across, is there a way to leverage these to make this nicer to use/easier to read.
