MIDIConnectionEvent: port property

{{securecontext_header}}{{APIRef("Web MIDI API")}}

The port read-only property of the {{domxref("MIDIConnectionEvent")}} interface returns the port that has been disconnected or connected.

Value

A {{domxref("MIDIPort")}} object.

Examples

The {{domxref("Navigator.requestMIDIAccess()")}} method returns a promise that resolves with a {{domxref("MIDIAccess")}} object. When a port changes state, a MIDIConnectionEvent is passed to the {{domxref("MIDIAccess.statechange_event","statechange")}} event. Information about the port can then be printed to the console.

navigator.requestMIDIAccess().then((access) => {
  access.onstatechange = (event) => {
    console.log(event.port.name, event.port.manufacturer, event.port.state);
  };
});
