Notable changes: * buffer: - Due to changes in V8, it has been necessary to reimplement Buffer on top of V8's Uint8Array. While every effort has been made to maintain performance, users are likely to experience a different performance profile depending on how Buffer is used. (Trevor Norris) #1825. - Buffer can now take ArrayBuffers as a constructor argument (Trevor Norris) #2002. - When a single buffer is passed to Buffer.concat(), a new, copied Buffer object will be returned; previous behavior was to return the original Buffer object (Sakthipriyan Vairamani) #1937. * build: PPC support has been added to core to allow compiling on pLinux BE and LE (AIX support coming soon) (Michael Dawson) #2124. * dgram: If an error occurs within socket.send() and a callback has been provided, the error is only passed as the first argument to the callback and not emitted on the socket object; previous behavior was to do both (Matteo Collina & Chris Dickinson) #1796 * freelist: Deprecate the undocumented freelist core module (Sakthipriyan Vairamani) #2176. * http: - Status codes now all use the official IANA names as per RFC7231, e.g. http.STATUS_CODES[414] now returns 'URI Too Long' rather than 'Request-URI Too Large' (jomo) #1470. - Calling .getName() on an HTTP agent no longer returns a trailing colon, HTTPS agents will no longer return an extra colon near the middle of the string (Brendan Ashworth) #1617. * node: - NODE_MODULE_VERSION has been bumped to 45 to reflect the break in ABI (Rod Vagg) #2096. - Introduce a new process.release object that contains a name property set to 'io.js' and sourceUrl, headersUrl and libUrl (Windows only) properties containing URLs for the relevant resources; this is intended to be used by node-gyp (Rod Vagg) #2154. - The version of node-gyp bundled with io.js now downloads and uses a tarball of header files from iojs.org rather than the full source for compiling native add-ons; it is hoped this is a temporary floating patch and the change will be upstreamed to node-gyp soon (Rod Vagg) #2066. * repl: Persistent history is now enabled by default. The history file is located at ~/.node_repl_history, which can be overridden by the new environment variable NODE_REPL_HISTORY. This deprecates the previous NODE_REPL_HISTORY_FILE variable. Additionally, the format of the file has been changed to plain text to better handle file corruption. (Jeremiah Senkpiel) #2224. * smalloc: The smalloc module has been removed as it is no longer possible to provide the API due to changes in V8 (Ben Noordhuis) #2022. * tls: Add server.getTicketKeys() and server.setTicketKeys() methods for TLS session key rotation (Fedor Indutny) #2227. * v8: Upgraded to 4.4.63.26 - ES6: Enabled computed property names - ES6: Array can now be subclassed in strict mode - ES6: Implement rest parameters in staging, use the --harmony-rest-parameters command line flag - ES6: Implement the spread operator in staging, use the --harmony-spreadcalls command line flag - Removed SetIndexedPropertiesToExternalArrayData and related APIs, forcing a shift to Buffer to be reimplemented based on Uint8Array - Introduction of Maybe and MaybeLocal C++ API for objects which may or may not have a value. - Added support for PPC PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/io.js/pull/2299 |

io.js
![Gitter](https://badges.gitter.im/Join Chat.svg)
This repository began as a GitHub fork of joyent/node.
io.js contributions, releases, and contributorship are under an open governance model. We intend to land, with increasing regularity, releases which are compatible with the npm ecosystem that has been built to date for Node.js.
Is it io.js or IO.js or iojs or IOjs or iOjS?
The official name is io.js, which should never be capitalized, especially not at the start of a sentence, unless it is being displayed in a location that is customarily all-caps (such as the title of man pages).
Download
Binaries, installers, and source tarballs are available at https://iojs.org.
Releases are available at https://iojs.org/dist/, listed under their version string. The https://iojs.org/dist/latest/ symlink will point to the latest release directory.
Nightly builds are available at https://iojs.org/download/nightly/, listed under their version string which includes their date (in UTC time) and the commit SHA at the HEAD of the release.
API documentation is available in each release and nightly directory under docs. https://iojs.org/api/ points to the latest version.
Verifying Binaries
Release and nightly download directories all contain a SHASUM256.txt
file that lists the SHA checksums for each file available for
download. To check that a downloaded file matches the checksum, run
it through sha256sum
with a command such as:
$ grep iojs-vx.y.z.tar.gz SHASUMS256.txt | sha256sum -c -
(Where "iojs-vx.y.z.tar.gz" is the name of the file you have downloaded)
Additionally, releases (not nightlies) have GPG signed copies of
SHASUM256.txt files available as SHASUM256.txt.asc. You can use gpg
to verify that the file has not been tampered with.
To verify a SHASUM256.txt.asc, you will first need to import all of the GPG keys of individuals authorized to create releases. They are listed at the bottom of this README. Use a command such as this to import the keys:
$ gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net \
--recv-keys DD8F2338BAE7501E3DD5AC78C273792F7D83545D
(Include each of the key fingerprints at the end of this command.)
You can then use gpg --verify SHASUMS256.txt.asc
to verify that the
file has been signed by an authorized member of the io.js team.
Once verified, use the SHASUMS256.txt.asc file to get the checksum for the binary verification command above.
Build
Unix / Macintosh
Prerequisites:
gcc
andg++
4.8 or newer, orclang
andclang++
3.4 or newer- Python 2.6 or 2.7
- GNU Make 3.81 or newer
- libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only)
$ ./configure
$ make
$ [sudo] make install
If your Python binary is in a non-standard location or has a non-standard name, run the following instead:
$ export PYTHON=/path/to/python
$ $PYTHON ./configure
$ make
$ [sudo] make install
To run the tests:
$ make test
To build the documentation:
$ make doc
To read the documentation:
$ man doc/iojs.1
To test if io.js was built correctly:
$ iojs -e "console.log('Hello from io.js ' + process.version)"
Windows
Prerequisites:
- Python 2.6 or 2.7
- Visual Studio 2013 for Windows Desktop, or
- Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop
- Basic Unix tools required for some tests,
Git for Windows includes Git Bash
and tools which can be included in the global
PATH
.
> vcbuild nosign
To run the tests:
> vcbuild test
To test if io.js was built correctly:
$ iojs -e "console.log('Hello from io.js ' + process.version)"
Android / Android based devices, aka. Firefox OS
Be sure you have downloaded and extracted [Android NDK] (https://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html) before in a folder. Then run:
$ ./android-configure /path/to/your/android-ndk
$ make
Intl
(ECMA-402) support:
Intl support is not enabled by default.
"small" (English only) support
This option will build with "small" (English only) support, but
the full Intl
(ECMA-402) APIs. With --download=all
it will
download the ICU library as needed.
Unix / Macintosh:
$ ./configure --with-intl=small-icu --download=all
Windows:
> vcbuild small-icu download-all
The small-icu
mode builds with English-only data. You can add full
data at runtime.
Note: more docs are on the joyent/node wiki.
Build with full ICU support (all locales supported by ICU):
With the --download=all
, this may download ICU if you don't have an
ICU in deps/icu
.
Unix / Macintosh:
$ ./configure --with-intl=full-icu --download=all
Windows:
> vcbuild full-icu download-all
Build with no Intl support :-(
The Intl
object will not be available. This is the default at
present, so this option is not normally needed.
Unix / Macintosh:
$ ./configure --with-intl=none
Windows:
> vcbuild intl-none
Use existing installed ICU (Unix / Macintosh only):
$ pkg-config --modversion icu-i18n && ./configure --with-intl=system-icu
Build with a specific ICU:
You can find other ICU releases at
the ICU homepage.
Download the file named something like icu4c-**##.#**-src.tgz
(or
.zip
).
Unix / Macintosh
# from an already-unpacked ICU:
$ ./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu
# from a local ICU tarball
$ ./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu.tgz
# from a tarball URL
$ ./configure --with-intl=full-icu --with-icu-source=http://url/to/icu.tgz
Windows
First unpack latest ICU to deps/icu
icu4c-##.#-src.tgz (or .zip
)
as deps/icu
(You'll have: deps/icu/source/...
)
> vcbuild full-icu
Building io.js with FIPS-compliant OpenSSL
NOTE: Windows is not yet supported
It is possible to build io.js with OpenSSL FIPS module.
Instructions:
- Download and verify
openssl-fips-x.x.x.tar.gz
from https://www.openssl.org/source/ - Extract source to
openssl-fips
folder cd openssl-fips && ./config fipscanisterbuild --prefix=`pwd`/out
(NOTE: On OS X, you may want to run./Configure darwin64-x86_64-cc --prefix=`pwd`/out
if you are going to build x64-mode io.js)make -j && make install
- Get into io.js checkout folder
./configure --openssl-fips=/path/to/openssl-fips/out
- Build io.js with
make -j
- Verify with
node -p "process.versions.openssl"
(1.0.2a-fips
)
