[discord-rpc] Prevent multiple listeners

guys I have a question

app.post('/extension-call', (req, res) => {
    if (req.body.playing === true) {

        updateRpc(req.body.name, req.body.icon, 'Playing')
    }
    else {
        updateRpc(null, null, 'Browsing')
    }
});

app.post('/extension-call', (req, res) => {
    if (req.body.playing === true) {

        updateRpc(req.body.name, req.body.icon, 'Playing')
    }
    else {
        updateRpc(null, null, 'Browsing')
    }
});

and inside updateRpc I have client.login using client id, setactivity function and etc, how to do so it does not create multiple listeners except only one?

function updatePresence() {
        return client.setActivity({
            details: rpc.details,
            state: rpc.state,
            largeImageKey: rpc.assets.largeImageKey,
            largeImageText: rpc.assets.largeImageText,
            smallImageKey: rpc.assets.smallImageKey,
            smallImageText: rpc.assets.smallImageText,
            buttons: 
                [{
                    label: rpc.buttons.primary.buttonLabelText,
                    url: rpc.buttons.primary.buttonRedirectUrl
                },
                {
                    label: rpc.buttons.secondary.buttonLabelText,
                    url: rpc.buttons.secondary.buttonRedirectUrl
                }
                ],
            startTimestamp: new Date()

            
        }, process.pid)
    }
    client.on('ready', async () => {
        onStartup();
    });
    if(/* here */) client.login({ clientId: config.clientId }).catch();
}

function updatePresence() {
        return client.setActivity({
            details: rpc.details,
            state: rpc.state,
            largeImageKey: rpc.assets.largeImageKey,
            largeImageText: rpc.assets.largeImageText,
            smallImageKey: rpc.assets.smallImageKey,
            smallImageText: rpc.assets.smallImageText,
            buttons: 
                [{
                    label: rpc.buttons.primary.buttonLabelText,
                    url: rpc.buttons.primary.buttonRedirectUrl
                },
                {
                    label: rpc.buttons.secondary.buttonLabelText,
                    url: rpc.buttons.secondary.buttonRedirectUrl
                }
                ],
            startTimestamp: new Date()

            
        }, process.pid)
    }
    client.on('ready', async () => {
        onStartup();
    });
    if(/* here */) client.login({ clientId: config.clientId }).catch();
}

I tried

 client.on('ready', async () => {
        onStartup();
    });
    if(client.listenerCount('ready') < 1) client.login({ clientId: config.clientId }).catch(); // Prevents multiple listeners
    console.log(client.listenerCount('ready'))

 client.on('ready', async () => {
        onStartup();
    });
    if(client.listenerCount('ready') < 1) client.login({ clientId: config.clientId }).catch(); // Prevents multiple listeners
    console.log(client.listenerCount('ready'))

still getting Browsing 1 Playing 2 Browsing 3 multiple listeners
