SpeechRecognition: abort() method
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Want more support for this feature? Tell us why.
The abort() method of the Web Speech API stops the speech
recognition service from listening to incoming audio, and doesn't attempt to return a
SpeechRecognitionResult.
Syntax
js
abort()
Parameters
None.
Return value
None (undefined).
Examples
js
const recognition = new SpeechRecognition();
const diagnostic = document.querySelector(".output");
const bg = document.querySelector("html");
const startBtn = document.querySelector(".start");
const abortBtn = document.querySelector(".abort");
startBtn.onclick = () => {
recognition.start();
console.log("Ready to receive a color command.");
};
abortBtn.onclick = () => {
recognition.abort();
console.log("Speech recognition aborted.");
};
recognition.onspeechend = () => {
recognition.stop();
console.log("Speech recognition has stopped.");
};
