BaseAgent<OptionsType, StateType, ResultType> ​
BaseAgent is the base class for all agents. It implements the basic agent lifecycle and convenience functions. It also implements thread management. This class is not directly usable and will throw unimplemented. To implement a custom agent, extend this class (see initialize
, finalize
and step
methods).

captureRejectionSymbol ​
static readonly captureRejectionSymbol: typeof captureRejectionSymbol;
Value: Symbol.for('nodejs.rejection')
See how to write a custom rejection handler
.
Since ​
v13.4.0, v12.16.0
Source ​
node_modules/@types/node/events.d.ts:402
captureRejections ​
static captureRejections: boolean;
Value: boolean
Change the default captureRejections
option on all new EventEmitter
objects.
Since ​
v13.4.0, v12.16.0
Source ​
node_modules/@types/node/events.d.ts:409
defaultMaxListeners ​
static defaultMaxListeners: number;
By default, a maximum of 10
listeners can be registered for any single event. This limit can be changed for individual EventEmitter
instances using the emitter.setMaxListeners(n)
method. To change the default for allEventEmitter
instances, the events.defaultMaxListeners
property can be used. If this value is not a positive number, a RangeError
is thrown.
Take caution when setting the events.defaultMaxListeners
because the change affects allEventEmitter
instances, including those created before the change is made. However, calling emitter.setMaxListeners(n)
still has precedence over events.defaultMaxListeners
.
This is not a hard limit. The EventEmitter
instance will allow more listeners to be added but will output a trace warning to stderr indicating that a "possible EventEmitter memory leak" has been detected. For any singleEventEmitter
, the emitter.getMaxListeners()
and emitter.setMaxListeners()
methods can be used to temporarily avoid this warning:
import { EventEmitter } from "node:events";
const emitter = new EventEmitter();
emitter.setMaxListeners(emitter.getMaxListeners() + 1);
emitter.once("event", () => {
// do stuff
emitter.setMaxListeners(Math.max(emitter.getMaxListeners() - 1, 0));
});
The --trace-warnings
command-line flag can be used to display the stack trace for such warnings.
The emitted warning can be inspected with process.on('warning')
and will have the additional emitter
, type
, and count
properties, referring to the event emitter instance, the event's name and the number of attached listeners, respectively. Its name
property is set to 'MaxListenersExceededWarning'
.

node_modules/@types/node/events.d.ts:446
errorMonitor ​
static readonly errorMonitor: typeof errorMonitor;
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.

emitter.once("log", () => console.log("log once"));
// Returns a new Array with a function `onceWrapper` which has a property
// `listener` which contains the original listener bound above
const listeners = emitter.rawListeners("log");

node_modules/@types/node/events.d.ts:766
removeAllListeners() ​
removeAllListeners(event?): this
Removes all listeners, or those of the specified eventName
.
It is bad practice to remove listeners added elsewhere in the code, particularly when the EventEmitter
instance was created by some other component or module (e.g. sockets or file streams).
Returns a reference to the EventEmitter
, so that calls can be chained.
Parameters ​
• event?: string
| symbol
Returns ​
this
Since ​
v0.1.26
Source ​
node_modules/@types/node/events.d.ts:706
removeListener() ​
removeListener(eventName, listener): this
Removes the specified listener
from the listener array for the event namedeventName
.
const callback = (stream) => {
console.log("someone connected!");
};
server.on("connection", callback);
// ...
server.removeListener("connection", callback);
removeListener()
will remove, at most, one instance of a listener from the listener array. If any single listener has been added multiple times to the listener array for the specified eventName
, then removeListener()
must be called multiple times to remove each instance.
Once an event is emitted, all listeners attached to it at the time of emitting are called in order. This implies that anyremoveListener()
or removeAllListeners()
calls after emitting and before the last listener finishes execution will not remove them fromemit()
in progress. Subsequent events behave as expected.
import { EventEmitter } from "node:events";
class MyEmitter extends EventEmitter {}
const myEmitter = new MyEmitter();
const callbackA = () => {
console.log("A");
myEmitter.removeListener("event", callbackB);
};
const callbackB = () => {
console.log("B");
};
myEmitter.on("event", callbackA);
myEmitter.on("event", callbackB);
// callbackA removes listener callbackB but it will still be called.
// Internal listener array at time of emit [callbackA, callbackB]
myEmitter.emit("event");
// Prints:
// A
// B
// callbackB is now removed.
// Internal listener array [callbackA]
myEmitter.emit("event");
// Prints:
// A
Because listeners are managed using an internal array, calling this will change the position indices of any listener registered after the listener being removed. This will not impact the order in which listeners are called, but it means that any copies of the listener array as returned by the emitter.listeners()
method will need to be recreated.
When a single function has been added as a handler multiple times for a single event (as in the example below), removeListener()
will remove the most recently added instance. In the example the once('ping')
listener is removed:
import { EventEmitter } from "node:events";
const ee = new EventEmitter();
function pong() {
console.log("pong");
}
ee.on("ping", pong);
ee.once("ping", pong);
ee.removeListener("ping", pong);
ee.emit("ping");
ee.emit("ping");
Returns a reference to the EventEmitter
, so that calls can be chained.

setMaxListeners() ​
setMaxListeners(n): this
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 emitter.setMaxListeners()
method allows the limit to be modified for this specific EventEmitter
instance. The value can be set toInfinity
(or 0
) to indicate an unlimited number of listeners.
Returns a reference to the EventEmitter
, so that calls can be chained.

addAbortListener() ​
Experimental
static addAbortListener(signal, resource): Disposable
Listens once to the abort
event on the provided signal
.
Listening to the abort
event on abort signals is unsafe and may lead to resource leaks since another third party with the signal can call e.stopImmediatePropagation()
. Unfortunately Node.js cannot change this since it would violate the web standard. Additionally, the original API makes it easy to forget to remove listeners.
This API allows safely using AbortSignal
s in Node.js APIs by solving these two issues by listening to the event such that stopImmediatePropagation
does not prevent the listener from running.
Returns a disposable so that it may be unsubscribed from more easily.
import { addAbortListener } from "node:events";
function example(signal) {
let disposable;
try {
signal.addEventListener("abort", (e) => e.stopImmediatePropagation());
disposable = addAbortListener(signal, (e) => {
// Do something when signal is aborted.
});
} finally {
disposable?.[Symbol.dispose]();
}
}
Parameters ​
• signal: AbortSignal
• resource
Returns ​
Disposable
Disposable that removes the abort
listener.

getEventListeners() ​
static getEventListeners(emitter, name): Function[]
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.
import { getEventListeners, EventEmitter } from "node:events";
{
const ee = new EventEmitter();
const listener = () => console.log("Events are fun");
ee.on("foo", listener);
console.log(getEventListeners(ee, "foo")); // [ [Function: listener] ]

const et = new EventTarget();
const listener = () => console.log("Events are fun");
et.addEventListener("foo", listener);

getMaxListeners() ​
static getMaxListeners(emitter): number
Returns the currently set max amount of listeners.
For EventEmitter
s this behaves exactly the same as calling .getMaxListeners
on the emitter.
For EventTarget
s this is the only way to get the max event listeners for the event target. If the number of event handlers on a single EventTarget exceeds the max set, the EventTarget will print a warning.
import { getMaxListeners, setMaxListeners, EventEmitter } from "node:events";

// 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:
import { on, EventEmitter } from "node:events";
import process from "node:process";
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());
Parameters ​

once() ​
once(emitter, eventName, options) ​
static once(
emitter,
eventName,
options?): Promise<any[]>
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.
import { once, EventEmitter } from "node:events";
import process from "node:process";
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.error("error happened", err);
}
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:
import { EventEmitter, once } from "node:events";
const ee = new EventEmitter();
once(ee, "error")
.then(([err]) => console.log("ok", err.message))
.catch((err) => console.error("error", err.message));
ee.emit("error", new Error("boom"));
// Prints: ok boom
An AbortSignal
can be used to cancel waiting for the event:
import { EventEmitter, once } from "node: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!
