Cancelling requests

You can cancel a request by passing a signal option when you call the model. For example, for OpenAI:

tip

See this section for general instructions on installing integration packages.

npm

npm install @langchain/openai

Yarn

yarn add @langchain/openai

pnpm

pnpm add @langchain/openai

import { OpenAI } from "@langchain/openai";

const model = new OpenAI({ temperature: 1 });
const controller = new AbortController();

// Call `controller.abort()` somewhere to cancel the request.

const res = await model.invoke(
  "What would be a good name for a company that makes colorful socks?",
  { signal: controller.signal }
);

console.log(res);
/*
'\n\nSocktastic Colors'
*/

API Reference:

• OpenAI from @langchain/openai

Note, this will only cancel the outgoing request if the underlying provider exposes that option. LangChain will cancel the underlying request if possible, otherwise it will cancel the processing of the response.
