EventEmitter.setMaxListeners - events - Node documentation
method EventEmitter.setMaxListeners

Usage in Deno

import { type EventEmitter } from "node:events";
EventEmitter.setMaxListeners(n: number): this

By default EventEmitters 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 to Infinity (or 0) to indicate an unlimited number of listeners.

Returns a reference to the EventEmitter, so that calls can be chained.

Parameters

n: number

Return Type
