unref

method Deno.UnsafeCallback.prototype.unref
Jump to headingUnsafeCallback.prototype.unref(): number

Decrements the callback's reference counting and returns the new reference count.

Calling unref() does not stop a callback from waking up the Deno event loop when called from foreign threads.

If the callback's reference counter is zero, it no longer keeps Deno's process from exiting.
