This library depends on Node-API and requires `[email protected]` or later.
We already have some packages written by `napi-rs`: [node-rs](https://github.com/napi-rs/node-rs)
One nice feature is that this crate allows you to build add-ons purely with the `Rust/JavaScript` toolchain and without involving `node-gyp`.
## Taste
> You can start from [package-template](https://github.com/napi-rs/package-template) to play with `napi-rs`
### Define JavaScript functions
```rust
/// import the preludes
use napi::bindgen_prelude::*;
use napi_derive::napi;
/// module registration is done by the runtime, no need to explicitly do it now.
#[napi]
fn fibonacci(n: u32) -> u32 {
match n {
1 | 2 => 1,
_ => fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2),
}
}
/// use `Fn`, `FnMut` or `FnOnce` traits to defined JavaScript callbacks
/// the return type of callbacks can only be `Result`.
#[napi]
fn get_cwd Result<()>>(callback: T) {
callback(env::current_dir().unwrap().to_string_lossy().to_string()).unwrap();
}
/// or, define the callback signature in where clause
#[napi]
fn test_callback(callback: T)
where T: Fn(String) -> Result<()>
{}
/// async fn, require `async` feature enabled.
/// [dependencies]
/// napi = {version="2", features=["async"]}
#[napi]
async fn read_file_async(path: String) -> Result {
tokio::fs::read(path)
.map(|r| match r {
Ok(content) => Ok(content.into()),
Err(e) => Err(Error::new(
Status::GenericFailure,
format!("failed to read file, {}", e),
)),
})
.await
}
```

## Building
This repository is a `Cargo` crate. Any napi-based add-on should contain `Cargo.toml` to make it a Cargo crate.
In your `Cargo.toml` you need to set the `crate-type` to `"cdylib"` so that cargo builds a C-style shared library that can be dynamically loaded by the Node executable. You'll also need to add this crate as a dependency.
```toml
[package]
name = "awesome"
[lib]
crate-type = ["cdylib"]
[dependencies]
napi = "3"
napi-derive = "3"
[build-dependencies]
napi-build = "1"
```
And create `build.rs` in your own project:
```rust
// build.rs
extern crate napi_build;
fn main() {
napi_build::setup();
}
```
So far, the `napi` build script has only been tested on `macOS` `Linux` `Windows x64 MSVC` and `FreeBSD`.
Install the `@napi-rs/cli` to help you build your `Rust` codes and copy `Dynamic lib` file to `.node` file in case you can `require` it in your program.
```js
{
"package": "awesome-package",
"devDependencies": {
"@napi-rs/cli": "^1.0.0"
},
"napi": {
"name": "jarvis" // <----------- Config the name of native addon, or the napi command will use the name of `Cargo.toml` for the binary file name.
},
"scripts": {
"build": "napi build --release",
"build:debug": "napi build"
}
}
```
Then you can require your native binding:
```js
require('./jarvis.node')
```
The `module_name` would be your `package` name in your `Cargo.toml`.
`xxx => ./xxx.node`
`xxx-yyy => ./xxx_yyy.node`
You can also copy `Dynamic lib` file to an appointed location:
```bash
napi build [--release] ./dll
napi build [--release] ./artifacts
```
There are [documents](./cli) which contains more details about the `@napi-rs/cli` usage.
## Testing
Because libraries that depend on this crate must be loaded into a Node executable in order to resolve symbols, all tests are written in JavaScript in the `test_module` subdirectory.
To run tests:
```sh
yarn build:test
yarn test
```
