receiveMessageOnPort

Receive a single message from a given MessagePort. If no message is available,undefined is returned, otherwise an object with a single message property that contains the message payload, corresponding to the oldest message in the MessagePort's queue.

const { MessageChannel, receiveMessageOnPort } = require('node:worker_threads');
const { port1, port2 } = new MessageChannel();
port1.postMessage({ hello: 'world' });

console.log(receiveMessageOnPort(port2));
// Prints: { message: { hello: 'world' } }
console.log(receiveMessageOnPort(port2));
// Prints: undefined

When this function is used, no 'message' event is emitted and the onmessage listener is not invoked.
