clearSubscriptions code example
Use case
A way to use theclearSubscriptions method is to place it in a timer to clear all of the subscriptions after a pre-determined about.
The following code is an example using the subscribe(“newBlockHeaders”) method, which will be stopped and removed after one minute using clearSubscriptions:
subscribeToNewBlocks that creates a new subscription to the block event using the provider.on method. This method attaches event listeners to the provider for different events, such as block and error. The code defines two event listener functions handleNewBlock and handleError that log messages to the console when these events occur.
The subscribeToNewBlocks function is called from the main function, which is also defined in the code. The main function calls subscribeToNewBlocks to create a new subscription and then schedules the clearSubscriptions function to run once after 60 seconds using the setTimeout function. The clearSubscriptions function uses the provider.removeAllListeners method to cancel any existing subscriptions and log a message to the console if the cancellation was successful.
