Deserialize data as BSON.
the buffer containing the serialized set of BSON documents.
returns the deserialized Javascript Object.
Serialize a Javascript object.
the Javascript object to serialize.
Buffer object containing the serialized object.
Sets or gets the default captureRejection value for all emitters.
This symbol shall be used to install a listener for only monitoring 'error'
events. Listeners installed using this symbol are called before the regular
'error'
listeners are called.
Installing a listener using this symbol does not change the behavior once an
'error'
event is emitted, therefore the process will still crash if no
regular 'error'
listener is installed.
A TopologyDescription

Close this topology
Initiate server connect
Send endSessions command(s) with the given session ids
Whether sessions are supported on the current topology
Selects a server according to the selection predicate provided
Optional settings related to server selection
The callback used to indicate success or failure
An instance of a Server
meeting the criteria of the predicate provided
Update the internal TopologyDescription with a ServerDescription
The server to update in the internal list of server descriptions
Whether the topology should initiate selection to determine session support
Start a logical session
Returns a copy of the array of listeners for the event named eventName
.
For EventEmitter
s this behaves exactly the same as calling .listeners
on
the emitter.
For EventTarget
s this is the only way to get the event listeners for the
event target. This is useful for debugging and diagnostic purposes.
const { getEventListeners, EventEmitter } = require('events');
{
const ee = new EventEmitter();
const listener = () => console.log('Events are fun');
ee.on('foo', listener);
getEventListeners(ee, 'foo'); // [listener]
}
{
const et = new EventTarget();
const listener = () => console.log('Events are fun');
et.addEventListener('foo', listener);
getEventListeners(et, 'foo'); // [listener]
}
A class method that returns the number of listeners for the given eventName
registered on the given emitter
.
const { EventEmitter, listenerCount } = require('events');
const myEmitter = new EventEmitter();
myEmitter.on('event', () => {});
myEmitter.on('event', () => {});
console.log(listenerCount(myEmitter, 'event'));
// Prints: 2
The emitter to query
The event name
```js const { on, EventEmitter } = require('events');
(async () => { const ee = new EventEmitter();
// Emit later on process.nextTick(() => { ee.emit('foo', 'bar'); ee.emit('foo', 42); });
for await (const event of on(ee, 'foo')) { // The execution of this inner block is synchronous and it // processes one event at a time (even with await). Do not use // if concurrent execution is required. console.log(event); // prints ['bar'] [42] } // Unreachable here })();
Returns an `AsyncIterator` that iterates `eventName` events. It will throw
if the `EventEmitter` emits `'error'`. It removes all listeners when
exiting the loop. The `value` returned by each iteration is an array
composed of the emitted event arguments.
An `AbortSignal` can be used to cancel waiting on events:
```js
const { on, EventEmitter } = require('events');
const ac = new AbortController();
(async () => {
const ee = new EventEmitter();
// Emit later on
process.nextTick(() => {
ee.emit('foo', 'bar');
ee.emit('foo', 42);
});
for await (const event of on(ee, 'foo', { signal: ac.signal })) {
// The execution of this inner block is synchronous and it
// processes one event at a time (even with await). Do not use
// if concurrent execution is required.
console.log(event); // prints ['bar'] [42]
}
// Unreachable here
})();
process.nextTick(() => ac.abort());
The name of the event being listened for
that iterates eventName
events emitted by the emitter
Creates a Promise
that is fulfilled when the EventEmitter
emits the given
event or that is rejected if the EventEmitter
emits 'error'
while waiting.
The Promise
will resolve with an array of all the arguments emitted to the
given event.
This method is intentionally generic and works with the web platform EventTarget interface, which has no special'error'
event
semantics and does not listen to the 'error'
event.
const { once, EventEmitter } = require('events');
async function run() {
const ee = new EventEmitter();
process.nextTick(() => {
ee.emit('myevent', 42);
});
const [value] = await once(ee, 'myevent');
console.log(value);
const err = new Error('kaboom');
process.nextTick(() => {
ee.emit('error', err);
});
try {
await once(ee, 'myevent');
} catch (err) {
console.log('error happened', err);
}
}
run();
The special handling of the 'error'
event is only used when events.once()
is used to wait for another event. If events.once()
is used to wait for the
'error'
event itself, then it is treated as any other kind of event without
special handling:
const { EventEmitter, once } = require('events');
const ee = new EventEmitter();
once(ee, 'error')
.then(([err]) => console.log('ok', err.message))
.catch((err) => console.log('error', err.message));
ee.emit('error', new Error('boom'));
// Prints: ok boom
An AbortSignal
can be used to cancel waiting for the event:
const { EventEmitter, once } = require('events');
const ee = new EventEmitter();
const ac = new AbortController();
async function foo(emitter, event, signal) {
try {
await once(emitter, event, { signal });
console.log('event emitted!');
} catch (error) {
if (error.name === 'AbortError') {
console.error('Waiting for the event was canceled!');
} else {
console.error('There was an error', error.message);
}
}
}
foo(ee, 'foo', ac.signal);
ac.abort(); // Abort waiting for the event
ee.emit('foo'); // Prints: Waiting for the event was canceled!
By default EventEmitter
s will print a warning if more than 10
listeners are
added for a particular event. This is a useful default that helps finding
memory leaks. The EventEmitter.setMaxListeners()
method allows the default limit to be
modified (if eventTargets is empty) or modify the limit specified in every EventTarget
| EventEmitter
passed as arguments.
The value can be set toInfinity
(or 0
) to indicate an unlimited number of listeners.
EventEmitter.setMaxListeners(20);
// Equivalent to
EventEmitter.defaultMaxListeners = 20;
const eventTarget = new EventTarget();
// Only way to increase limit for `EventTarget` instances
// as these doesn't expose its own `setMaxListeners` method
EventEmitter.setMaxListeners(20, eventTarget);
