Summarizer: destroy() method

Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The destroy() method of the Summarizer interface destroys the Summarizer instance it is called on. It makes sense to destroy Summarizer objects if they are no longer going to be used, as they tie up significant resources in their handling.

Syntax

js
destroy()

Parameters

None.

Return value

None (undefined).

Examples

Basic destroy() usage

js
const summarizer = await Summarizer.create({
  sharedContext:
    "A general summary to help a user decide if the text is worth reading",
  type: "tl;dr",
  length: "short",
});

// ...

summarizer.destroy();
