# OpenWrt Node.js Packages (nodejs)



## Description



OpenWrt Node.js Packages : for Head (Development branch)



Note: support arches are aarch64, arm, x86_64



## License



See [LICENSE](LICENSE) file.



## Usage



Add the following line to feeds.conf or feeds.conf.default.

```

src-git node https://github.com/nxhack/openwrt-node-packages.git

```



Run

```

./scripts/feeds update node

rm ./package/feeds/packages/node

rm ./package/feeds/packages/node-*

./scripts/feeds install -a -p node

make defconfig

```



## Request to add a package is welcome

If you want a new module (native module) that requires a precompiled binary, ***please open the issue.***



## Note

If you want to use with 23.05, see [openwrt-23.05 branch](https://github.com/nxhack/openwrt-node-packages/tree/openwrt-23.05) (***Current stable series***)



On the host side, the following preparations are required.

* [Unix prerequisites](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/BUILDING.md#unix-prerequisites)

* To build a 32-bit target, gcc-multilib, g++-multilib are required.

```

sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib g++-multilib

```

* The libatomic package is required. (Install the 32-bit library at the same time, if necessary).



## Illegal instruction issue



***V8 JIT code generates FP instruction. Node.js does not work without hardware FPU.***



If you are running nodejs on the Atheros AR71xx/AR933x, MediaTek MT76x8, it will not work because there is no hardware FPU.

ARM cores without vfp or neon (such as ***bcm53xx***) will not work either.



## Enable Inspector



| Processor | ICU | Inspector |

| :---: | --- | :---: |

| 32bit | Disable | NO |

| 32bit | small-icu | YES |

| 64bit | Disable | NO |

| 64bit | small-icu | YES |

| 64bit | system-icu | YES |



 [Debugging Guide](https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/debugging-getting-started/) ***Nice to use Chrome DevTools.***



 Note: ICU currently supports only ***LITTLE ENDIAN***.



## Note about mDNS and homebridge

Read this document: [mDNS Options](https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge/wiki/mDNS-Options)



If you want, you can install the OpenWrt mDNS package (umdns / avahi-dbus-daemon / mdnsresponder).



(1)

Some OpenWrt / Lede images have built in dnscrypt-proxy package, which by default listening on 5353 port.



In that case, installed avahi-daemon will not start on ipv4 interface, only on ipv6 because ipv4 port is taken.



This will lead to strange issue: your homebrdge accessory will be visible in 'Home' app, but can't finish pairing.



To fix this, you have to stop and disable dnscrypt-proxy



Also, you have to enable: dbus and avahi-daemon services to start automatically, i.e for Lede:



```

/etc/init.d/dbus enable

/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon enable

```



(2)

avahi on home network



Please read this document. '[Why avahi and bonjour don't work on your home network](https://github.com/culler/querierd/blob/master/README.rst)'



***IGMP-querier*** will solve your problem.



OpenWrt allows "multicast_querier" (IGMP-querier) to be set when "igmp_snooping" is enabled.



OpenWrt custom packages available: https://github.com/nxhack/openwrt-custom-packages



## Low memory

Specify v8-options.



```

--optimize_for_size --max_old_space_size=128 --gc_interval=100

```

For Reference: [Avoid Garbage](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/node-best-practices#avoid-garbage).



Or use [swap](https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/storage/fstab?s[]=swap).
