PR-URL: https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1532 Notable Changes: * crypto: significantly reduced memory usage for TLS (Fedor Indutny & Сковорода Никита Андреевич) #1529 * net: socket.connect() now accepts a 'lookup' option for a custom DNS resolution mechanism, defaults to dns.lookup() (Evan Lucas) #1505 * npm: Upgrade npm to 2.9.0. See the v2.8.4 and v2.9.0 release notes for details. Notable items: - Add support for default author field to make npm init -y work without user-input (@othiym23) npm/npm/d8eee6cf9d - Include local modules in npm outdated and npm update (@ArnaudRinquin) npm/npm#7426 - The prefix used before the version number on npm version is now configurable via tag-version-prefix (@kkragenbrink) npm/npm#8014 * os: os.tmpdir() is now cross-platform consistent and will no longer returns a path with a trailling slash on any platform (Christian Tellnes) #747 * process: - process.nextTick() performance has been improved by between 2-42% across the benchmark suite, notable because this is heavily used across core (Brian White) #1548 - New process.geteuid(), process.seteuid(id), process.getegid() and process.setegid(id) methods allow you to get and set effective UID and GID of the process (Evan Lucas) #1536 * repl: - REPL history can be persisted across sessions if the NODE_REPL_HISTORY_FILE environment variable is set to a user accessible file, NODE_REPL_HISTORY_SIZE can set the maximum history size and defaults to 1000 (Chris Dickinson) #1513 - The REPL can be placed in to one of three modes using the NODE_REPL_MODE environment variable: sloppy, strict or magic (default); the new magic mode will automatically run "strict mode only" statements in strict mode (Chris Dickinson) #1513 * smalloc: the 'smalloc' module has been deprecated due to changes coming in V8 4.4 that will render it unusable * util: add Promise, Map and Set inspection support (Christopher Monsanto) #1471 * V8: upgrade to 4.2.77.18, see the ChangeLog for full details. Notable items: - Classes have moved out of staging; the class keyword is now usable in strict mode without flags - Object literal enhancements have moved out of staging; shorthand method and property syntax is now usable ({ method() { }, property }) - Rest parameters (function(...args) {}) are implemented in staging behind the --harmony-rest-parameters flag - Computed property names ({['foo'+'bar']:'bam'}) are implemented in staging behind the --harmony-computed-property-names flag - Unicode escapes ('\u{xxxx}') are implemented in staging behind the --harmony_unicode flag and the --harmony_unicode_regexps flag for use in regular expressions * Windows: - Random process termination on Windows fixed (Fedor Indutny) #1512 / #1563 - The delay-load hook introduced to fix issues with process naming (iojs.exe / node.exe) has been made opt-out for native add-ons. Native add-ons should include 'win_delay_load_hook': 'false' in their binding.gyp to disable this feature if they experience problems .

io.js
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 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:
gccandg++4.8 or newer, orclangandclang++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
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
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
