method

Socket.shutdown

halfClose?: boolean

): void;

Shuts down one half of the connection. With no argument, sends a FIN: the socket can still receive data but can no longer send it. With true, stops receiving data. Calls the shutdown(2) syscall internally.

@param halfClose

If true, shuts down the read side. If false or omitted, shuts down the write side. Defaults to false.

// Stop sending data, but allow receiving
socket.shutdown();

// Stop receiving data
socket.shutdown(true);
