A utility class used to signal cancelation in selected Promise-based APIs.\nThe API is based on the Web API AbortController.
const ac = new AbortController();\n\nac.signal.addEventListener('abort', () => console.log('Aborted!'),\n { once: true });\n\nac.abort();\n\nconsole.log(ac.signal.aborted); // Prints True\nTriggers the abort signal, causing the abortController.signal to emit\nthe 'abort' event.
The AbortSignal is used to notify observers when the\nabortController.abort() method is called.
Returns a new already aborted AbortSignal.
The 'abort' event is emitted when the abortController.abort() method\nis called. The callback is invoked with a single object argument with a\nsingle type property set to 'abort':
const ac = new AbortController();\n\n// Use either the onabort property...\nac.signal.onabort = () => console.log('aborted!');\n\n// Or the EventTarget API...\nac.signal.addEventListener('abort', (event) => {\n console.log(event.type); // Prints 'abort'\n}, { once: true });\n\nac.abort();\nThe AbortController with which the AbortSignal is associated will only\never trigger the 'abort' event once. We recommended that code check\nthat the abortSignal.aborted attribute is false before adding an 'abort'\nevent listener.
Any event listeners attached to the AbortSignal should use the\n{ once: true } option (or, if using the EventEmitter APIs to attach a\nlistener, use the once() method) to ensure that the event listener is\nremoved as soon as the 'abort' event is handled. Failure to do so may\nresult in memory leaks.
An optional callback function that may be set by user code to be notified\nwhen the abortController.abort() function has been called.
Used to handle binary data. See the buffer section.
