class AsyncResource

Usage in Deno

```typescript import { AsyncResource } from "node:node__async_hooks.d.ts"; ```
> [!WARNING] Deno compatibility > The AsyncResource implementation is a non-functional stub. The class `AsyncResource` is designed to be extended by the embedder's async resources. Using this, users can easily trigger the lifetime events of their own resources. The `init` hook will trigger when an `AsyncResource` is instantiated. The following is an overview of the `AsyncResource` API. ```js import { AsyncResource, executionAsyncId } from 'node:async_hooks'; // AsyncResource() is meant to be extended. Instantiating a // new AsyncResource() also triggers init. If triggerAsyncId is omitted then // async_hook.executionAsyncId() is used. const asyncResource = new AsyncResource( type, { triggerAsyncId: executionAsyncId(), requireManualDestroy: false }, ); // Run a function in the execution context of the resource. This will // * establish the context of the resource // * trigger the AsyncHooks before callbacks // * call the provided function `fn` with the supplied arguments // * trigger the AsyncHooks after callbacks // * restore the original execution context asyncResource.runInAsyncScope(fn, thisArg, ...args); // Call AsyncHooks destroy callbacks. asyncResource.emitDestroy(); // Return the unique ID assigned to the AsyncResource instance. asyncResource.asyncId(); // Return the trigger ID for the AsyncResource instance. asyncResource.triggerAsyncId(); ```

Constructors

new
AsyncResource(
type: string,
triggerAsyncId?: number | AsyncResourceOptions,
)
AsyncResource() is meant to be extended. Instantiating a new AsyncResource() also triggers init. If triggerAsyncId is omitted then async_hook.executionAsyncId() is used.

Methods

asyncId(): number
bind<Func extends (...args: any[]) => any>(fn: Func): Func
Binds the given function to execute to this `AsyncResource`'s scope.
emitDestroy(): this
Call all `destroy` hooks. This should only ever be called once. An error will be thrown if it is called more than once. This **must** be manually called. If the resource is left to be collected by the GC then the `destroy` hooks will never be called.
runInAsyncScope<
This,
Result,
>
(
fn: (
this: This,
...args: any[],
) => Result
,
thisArg?: This,
...args: any[],
): Result
Call the provided function with the provided arguments in the execution context of the async resource. This will establish the context, trigger the AsyncHooks before callbacks, call the function, trigger the AsyncHooks after callbacks, and then restore the original execution context.
triggerAsyncId(): number

Func extends (

>
(
fn: Func,
type?: string,
thisArg?: ThisArg,
): Func
Binds the given function to the current execution context.
