resetIntl

resetIntl() destroys and removes the package default runtime.

This is the cleanest reset strategy for tests, demos, and repeated bootstraps in the same process.

1import { initIntl, resetIntl, getIntl } from '@beforesemicolon/intl'2 3initIntl({ locale: 'en-US', messages: { hello: 'Hello' } })4resetIntl()5getIntl().locale // resolves to the package default initial locale logic

Signature

1function resetIntl(): void

What gets cleared

• default runtime object
• listeners and subscriptions tied to the default runtime
• loaded messages and in-flight locale loads for the default runtime
• runtime caches (formatterCache and messageCache)

It does not remove any custom scoped runtimes you created explicitly.

resetIntl() vs destroyIntl()

• destroyIntl(scope) targets a specific runtime.
• resetIntl() always targets and removes only the default runtime.
