WebTransportDatagramDuplexStream: readable property

Limited availability

This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.

Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.

The readable read-only property of the WebTransportDatagramDuplexStream interface returns a ReadableStream instance that can be used to unreliably read incoming datagrams from the stream.

"Unreliably" means that transmission of data is not guaranteed, nor is arrival in a specific order. This is fine in some situations and provides very fast delivery. For example, you might want to transmit regular game state updates where each message supersedes the last one that arrives, and order is not important.

Value

A ReadableStream.

Examples

See the main WebTransportDatagramDuplexStream interface page.
