The label read-only property of the GPUQueue interface is a string providing a label that can be used to identify the object, for example in GPUError messages or console warnings.

You can get and set it directly on the GPUQueue object.

Value

A string. If no label value has previously been set, getting the label returns an empty string.

Examples

Setting and getting a label via GPUQueue.label:

js
device.queue.label = "my_queue";
console.log(device.queue.label); // "my_queue"

You can also set the queue's label at the time you request the device, like this:

js
const device = adapter.requestDevice({
  defaultQueue: { label: "my_queue" },
});
