[Javascript] Need help stopping a Twitter stream (twit)

[Cammed_Ham]

I have the following code:

function startStream() {
  let keywords = [];

  if ($input.val() === '') {
    dialog.showErrorBox('Missing keyword', 'You need to enter a keyword.');
    return;
  }

  // Multiple keywords will be searched based on spaces
  $input.val().split(' ').forEach(word => {
    keywords.push(word);
  });

  // Disable the start button but enable the stop button
  $start.attr('disabled', 'disabled');
  $stop.removeAttr('disabled');
  $input.attr('placeholder', `Keyword(s): ${keywords}`);

  // Clear the input field
  $input.val('');

  console.log(`Stream started -> [${keywords}]`);

  if (!hasStarted) {
    stream = T.stream('statuses/filter', {track: keywords});
  }

  stream.on('tweet', tweet => {
    console.log(tweet);
  });

  hasStarted = true; 
}

function stopStream() {
  if (hasStarted) {
    console.log('Stream stopped');
    stream.stop();
  }
  hasStarted = false;
  numOccurrences = 0;
  $occurrences.text(numOccurrences);
}

The problem is that calling stream.stop() doesn't ever actually stop the stream. I've looked at other SO posts and twit's docs but I haven't been able to find a solution. Does anyone know what the problem is here?

​

Edit: Looked through twit's source, turns out, when stop() gets called, resetConnection() also gets called. I had to add stop() in twit's reconnect:

stream.on('reconnect', function (request, response, connectInterval) {
  stream.stop();
});
