Packages that currently do not work with Node.js v4.0 [List]

[yosuke-furukawa]

I would like to list up the modules not work well on v4.0. inspired by https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/456

If this idea is not so good, feel free to close this issue.

[EwanValentine]

engine.io fails, throws errors when you try to run your application. Unexpected )

[xzyfer]

I ran into issues with https://www.npmjs.com/package/contextify earlier today

[saper]

@xzyfer there is https://github.com/brianmcd/contextify/pull/181 waiting to be tested :)

These packages depend on nan version between 2.0.0 and 2.0.7, which is also not nice:

bcrypt nan: '2.0.5'
duktape nan: '2.0.7'
fusejs nan: '2.0.5'
kytea nan: '2.0.5'
libxmljs nan: '2.0.7'
libxmljs-mt nan: '2.0.7'
mhash nan: '= 2.0.7'
murmurhash3 nan: '2.0.5'
number-smusher nan: '= 2.0.7'
pty.js nan: '2.0.5'
rand48 nan: '= 2.0.7'
secp256k1 nan: '2.0.4'
unqlite nan: '2.0.5'
wson-addon nan: '2.0.4'

That's actually 75% of nan-dependant packages, btw.

[vielmetti]

Is there a guide or docs written about porting to the new nan ?

[vielmetti]

For reference, here's a nan port for node-expat, which someone who is trying to undertake this task for a different package might find useful.

https://github.com/julianduque/node-expat/commit/c129cb37c6f04f09190a3912f44f3976b813b973

[vielmetti]

And here's a script from @rvagg that helps automate the changes for the new nan.

https://github.com/nodejs/nan/issues/376#issuecomment-120838432

[vielmetti]

Further, some hoped for documentation for the nan upgrade from that project: https://github.com/nodejs/nan/issues/402

[calvinmetcalf]

so from what I can tell, the secret sauce for getting it to pass on travis is setting

env:
  - CC=clang CXX=clang++ npm_config_clang=1

in your .travis.yml, not sure why ... due to travis having a really old version of g++

[bnoordhuis]

@calvinmetcalf It's because the default g++ on travis is too old to understand C++11. If you depend on g++ 4.8 or newer, it should work too.

[calvinmetcalf]

@bnoordhuis thanks

[srlowe]

Is there an easy way of scanning installed packages for old versions of nan?

[ChALkeR]

@bgSosh grep? For example: grep -R --include=package.json '"nan"\s*:' searches for nan mentions in package.json files.

find . -name nan -type d -exec grep version -H "{}/package.json" \; finds nan directories and gets the version from the corresponding package.json, but that generally doesn't tell you why was that version installed.

[rla]

I can share the experience that migration to NAN 2.x requires lots of changes if you create lots of objects and set properties. And your code verbosity increases a lot as well as you need to add .ToLocalChecked() to every string. Changeset from fast-feed: https://github.com/rla/fast-feed/commit/e7e2d31d1b34405782a3af524c8fff2052f94328

[fivdi]

@rla although lots of changes may be required, it's easy to make those changes. Do you agree?

[rla]

@fivdi only if you know what to change into what. I had some hard time finding references. NAN's example and referenced example projects do not contain everything. At least tests (including memory leak check) run now, except on Travis that has too old GCC.

[vielmetti]

@rla , there are configurations for Travis above in this issue noted by @calvinmetcalf at https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/2798#issuecomment-139356961 for using clang to compile tests, and I've seen the Travis configs to bring in the later gcc as well.

[cjihrig]

I'm using this config with poop, which relies on heapdump. Maybe it will help you.

Currently iconv-lite does not work, see also #2835.

@Mithgol, @xzyfer, @EwanValentine, @pandres95, @tb01923 (Note: I am updating this list of user mentions). There is no need to post a message about each specific package here.

Instead, do the other way around to keep this thread clean: report a package-specific issue/pr regarding Node.js 4.0.0 compatibility (or find one), and link to this thread. That issue/pr should be usually placed at the package repository.

This way we will see nice status badges here.

newrelic/node-newrelic doesn't work on Node 4.0 with express or connect. This pull request will fix it when it gets merged https://github.com/newrelic/node-newrelic/pull/200

I made ttf2woff2 nan: '^1.8.4' and were able to build the module under Node4, am i missing something?

[tbranyen]

Not sure why nodegit-probablycorey made the list, but the actual project nodegit did not, kinda weird. We're working on support, but are having trouble reconciling Node 0.12, Node 4.0, iojs, on Windows, OS X, and Linux. Probably won't be able to fully support Node 4.0 for some time because of this.

Our branch if anyone could lend a hand: https://github.com/nodegit/nodegit/pull/702

It seems to me that ttf2woff2 is not using nan at all? (you could probably drop nan dependency in package.json).

Commits https://github.com/nfroidure/ttf2woff2/commit/5f4a918eb2ee67dfcc25d12217cb0d36c344fc8a and https://github.com/nfroidure/ttf2woff2/commit/002c8eaf14d0db5ac1517d2cac1ca605c8556a0a made the code compatible with iojs 3.0 and node 4.0, but I am afraid the code will not compile against older nodes.

[calvinmetcalf]

@tbranyen you could do a major version bump

[nfroidure]

@saper i updated the package.json "engines" key accordingly. The 1.0 branch will remain for previous Node versions users.

Thanks for the nan tip (just followed the doc ;), will try to remove it).

I just tested it and "it worked for me" without nan at all.

You might want to consider using nan though, then your code will work with all engines with a one-time effort (well, until new V8 API comes with Globals instead of Persistent :).

[wraithan]

Just a heads up, if you are fixing for the bound problem. You need to also take into account the fact that function names can now be things like get fn and set fn. You'll want to split on spaces and grab the last element most likely. That is how we'll be fixing it within node-newrelic

[wraithan]

So @esco pointed out that v8 doesn't do the prepended get or set yet so the remove bound solution would work totally fine with node 4.0. We're still going to fix using the break on spaces method though due to the spec stating that getters/setters should have spaces in their name too. This way we are future proofed against the next change to Function.name:

http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-ecmascript-standard-built-in-objects

Relevant paragraph:

Every built-in Function object, including constructors, that is not identified as an anonymous function has a name property whose value is a String. Unless otherwise specified, this value is the name that is given to the function in this specification. For functions that are specified as properties of objects, the name value is the property name string used to access the function. Functions that are specified as get or set accessor functions of built-in properties have "get " or "set " prepended to the property name string. The value of the name property is explicitly specified for each built-in functions whose property key is a Symbol value.

I have answered ^^ in https://github.com/sass/node-sass/issues/1122#issuecomment-143020384

node-sass fully supports node 4.x since 3.2.0, and 3.3.3 is the current version on npm and GitHub. Unfortunately, many packages using node-sass it fix older versions in their package.json

[xzyfer]

You're trying to install node-sass@0.9.x which is a couple years old. Node 4 support landed 3.3.x. On 21 Nov 2015 11:19 am, "James M Snell" notifications@github.com wrote:

Closing, we are already well into v5.

[atticoos]

I think a lot of people may stay on v4 as it's been chosen for LTS - should this remain open?

[saper]

I think the original meaning of this bug is to catch native extensions that didn't upgrade to the (significantly changed) node 4.0 APIs. Not sure how many of them are left to be upgraded (my guess is that probably not so many, but that's just a guess).

[Fishrock123]

You can still link to it. Perhaps it may be better to link this from one of the Wiki pages.

However, there isn't anything actionable here for us anymore so I'd like to trim down our open issues. :)
