What use cases exist for async_hooks?
Medium | Node.js
by Node.js
3y ago
Hello, Node.js users! ? The Diagnostics working group is looking for feedback on what ways Node.js users are using the async_hooks API and to elaborate on exactly what about that problem makes async_hooks useful for them. We hope to build higher-level abstractions more purpose-built for the needs of our users. Unfortunately, due to async_hooks leaking internals and being a generally confusing API, we do not see a good path forward to moving async_hooks out of "experimental" status so we are seeking input on alternatives to better serve those needs. Over the years there have been sev ..read more

Those will continue to be handled through our HackerOne program and can be reported as described in https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/SECURITY.md. The Node.js project started accepting vulnerability reports for ecosystem modules in 2016 after the Node.js Security project donated its database to the project.

Renaming N-API to Node-API
Medium | Node.js
by Node.js
3y ago
This post was contributed by the Node-API team. The reason for this blog post is to explain what motivated us to rename N-API to Node-API. The issue that is tracking the transition was: https://github.com/nodejs/abi-stable-node/issues/420 BackgroundYou may have noticed N-API changed to Node-API in the documentation within the Node.js project. N-API has always stood for Node-API but was often pronounced NAPI. A concern was raised, that when pronounced that way, it could be mistaken for a derogatory term. We therefore made it our goal to clarify that N-API is Node-API whenever possible wit ..read more
