These objects are available in all modules. The following variables may appear
to be global but are not. They exist only in the scope of modules, see the
[module system documentation][]:
* [`__dirname`][]
* [`__filename`][]
* [`exports`][]
* [`module`][]
* [`require()`][]
2010-10-28 23:18:16 +11:00
The objects listed here are specific to Node.js. There are [built-in objects][]
that are part of the JavaScript language itself, which are also globally
accessible.

2021-05-11, Version 14.17.0 'Fermium' (LTS) Notable Changes: Diagnostics channel (experimental module): `diagnostics_channel` is a new experimental module that provides an API to create named channels to report arbitrary message data for diagnostics purposes. The module was initially introduced in Node.js v15.1.0 and is backported to v14.17.0 to enable testing it at a larger scale. With `diagnostics_channel`, Node.js core and module authors can publish contextual data about what they are doing at a given time. This could be the hostname and query string of a mysql query, for example. Just create a named channel with `dc.channel(name)` and call `channel.publish(data)` to send the data to any listeners to that channel. ```js const dc = require('diagnostics_channel'); const channel = dc.channel('mysql.query'); MySQL.prototype.query = function query(queryString, values, callback) { // Broadcast query information whenever a query is made channel.publish({ query: queryString, host: this.hostname, }); this.doQuery(queryString, values, callback); }; ``` Channels are like one big global event emitter but are split into separate objects to ensure they get the best performance. If nothing is listening to the channel, the publishing overhead should be as close to zero as possible. Consuming channel data is as easy as using `channel.subscribe(listener)` to run a function whenever a message is published to that channel. ```js const dc = require('diagnostics_channel'); const channel = dc.channel('mysql.query'); channel.subscribe(({ query, host }) => { console.log(`mysql query to ${host}: ${query}`); }); ``` The data captured can be used to provide context for what an app is doing at a given time. This can be used for things like augmenting tracing data, tracking network and filesystem activity, logging queries, and many other things. It's also a very useful data source for diagnostics tools to provide a clearer picture of exactly what the application is doing at a given point in the data they are presenting.

Experimental support for `AbortController` and `AbortSignal`: Node.js 14.17.0 adds experimental partial support for `AbortController` and `AbortSignal`.

It is not mandatory to use the built-in constructors with them. Any spec-compliant third-party alternatives should be compatible. `AbortSignal` support was added to the following methods: * `child_process.exec` * `child_process.execFile` * `child_process.fork` * `child_process.spawn` * `dgram.createSocket` * `events.on` * `events.once` * `fs.readFile` * `fs.watch` * `fs.writeFile` * `http.request` * `https.request` * `http2Session.request` * The promisified variants of `setImmediate` and `setTimeout` Other notable changes: * doc: * revoke deprecation of legacy url, change status to legacy (James M Snell) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37784) * add legacy status to stability index (James M Snell) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37784) * upgrade stability status of report API (Gireesh Punathil) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35654) * deps: * V8: Backport various patches for Apple Silicon support (BoHong Li) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/38051) * update ICU to 68.1 (Michaël Zasso) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/36187) * upgrade to libuv 1.41.0 (Colin Ihrig) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37360) * http: * add http.ClientRequest.getRawHeaderNames() (simov) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37660) * report request start and end with diagnostics\_channel (Stephen Belanger) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/34895) * util: * add getSystemErrorMap() impl (eladkeyshawn) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/38101) PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/38507

<!-- type=global -->
A utility class used to signal cancelation in selected `Promise`-based APIs.
The API is based on the Web API [`AbortController`][].
```js
const ac = new AbortController();
ac.signal.addEventListener('abort', () => console.log('Aborted!'),
{ once: true });
ac.abort();
console.log(ac.signal.aborted); // Prints True
```

2021-05-11, Version 14.17.0 'Fermium' (LTS) Notable Changes: Diagnostics channel (experimental module): `diagnostics_channel` is a new experimental module that provides an API to create named channels to report arbitrary message data for diagnostics purposes. The module was initially introduced in Node.js v15.1.0 and is backported to v14.17.0 to enable testing it at a larger scale. With `diagnostics_channel`, Node.js core and module authors can publish contextual data about what they are doing at a given time. This could be the hostname and query string of a mysql query, for example. Just create a named channel with `dc.channel(name)` and call `channel.publish(data)` to send the data to any listeners to that channel. ```js const dc = require('diagnostics_channel'); const channel = dc.channel('mysql.query'); MySQL.prototype.query = function query(queryString, values, callback) { // Broadcast query information whenever a query is made channel.publish({ query: queryString, host: this.hostname, }); this.doQuery(queryString, values, callback); }; ``` Channels are like one big global event emitter but are split into separate objects to ensure they get the best performance. If nothing is listening to the channel, the publishing overhead should be as close to zero as possible. Consuming channel data is as easy as using `channel.subscribe(listener)` to run a function whenever a message is published to that channel. ```js const dc = require('diagnostics_channel'); const channel = dc.channel('mysql.query'); channel.subscribe(({ query, host }) => { console.log(`mysql query to ${host}: ${query}`); }); ``` The data captured can be used to provide context for what an app is doing at a given time. This can be used for things like augmenting tracing data, tracking network and filesystem activity, logging queries, and many other things. It's also a very useful data source for diagnostics tools to provide a clearer picture of exactly what the application is doing at a given point in the data they are presenting. Contributed by Stephen Belanger (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/34895). UUID support in the crypto module: The new `crypto.randomUUID()` method now allows to generate random [RFC 4122](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt) Version 4 UUID strings: ```js const { randomUUID } = require('crypto'); console.log(randomUUID()); // 'aa7c91a1-f8fc-4339-b9db-f93fc7233429' ``` Contributed by James M Snell (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/36729). Experimental support for `AbortController` and `AbortSignal`: Node.js 14.17.0 adds experimental partial support for `AbortController` and `AbortSignal`. Both constructors can be enabled globally using the `--experimental-abortcontroller` flag. Additionally, several Node.js APIs have been updated to support `AbortSignal` for cancellation. It is not mandatory to use the built-in constructors with them. Any spec-compliant third-party alternatives should be compatible. `AbortSignal` support was added to the following methods: * `child_process.exec` * `child_process.execFile` * `child_process.fork` * `child_process.spawn` * `dgram.createSocket` * `events.on` * `events.once` * `fs.readFile` * `fs.watch` * `fs.writeFile` * `http.request` * `https.request` * `http2Session.request` * The promisified variants of `setImmediate` and `setTimeout` Other notable changes: * doc: * revoke deprecation of legacy url, change status to legacy (James M Snell) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37784) * add legacy status to stability index (James M Snell) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37784) * upgrade stability status of report API (Gireesh Punathil) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35654) * deps: * V8: Backport various patches for Apple Silicon support (BoHong Li) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/38051) * update ICU to 68.1 (Michaël Zasso) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/36187) * upgrade to libuv 1.41.0 (Colin Ihrig) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37360) * http: * add http.ClientRequest.getRawHeaderNames() (simov) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/37660) * report request start and end with diagnostics\_channel (Stephen Belanger) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/34895) * util: * add getSystemErrorMap() impl (eladkeyshawn) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/38101) PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/38507

The `'abort'` event is emitted when the `abortController.abort()` method
is called. The callback is invoked with a single object argument with a
single `type` property set to `'abort'`:
```js
const ac = new AbortController();
// Use either the onabort property...
ac.signal.onabort = () => console.log('aborted!');
// Or the EventTarget API...
ac.signal.addEventListener('abort', (event) => {
console.log(event.type); // Prints 'abort'
}, { once: true });
ac.abort();
```
The `AbortController` with which the `AbortSignal` is associated will only
ever trigger the `'abort'` event once. We recommended that code check
that the `abortSignal.aborted` attribute is `false` before adding an `'abort'`
event listener.
Any event listeners attached to the `AbortSignal` should use the
`{ once: true }` option (or, if using the `EventEmitter` APIs to attach a
listener, use the `once()` method) to ensure that the event listener is
removed as soon as the `'abort'` event is handled. Failure to do so may
result in memory leaks.

One of the big changes in npm 7 is that peer dependencies are now installed by default. Throw On Unhandled Rejections (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33021): As of Node.js 15, the default mode for `unhandledRejection` is changed to `throw` (from `warn`). In `throw` mode, if an `unhandledRejection` hook is not set, the `unhandledRejection` is raised as an uncaught exception. Users that have an `unhandledRejection` hook should see no change in behavior, and it’s still possible to switch modes using the `--unhandled-rejections=mode` process flag. QUIC (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/32379): Node.js 15 comes with experimental support QUIC, which can be enabled by compiling Node.js with the `--experimental-quic` configuration flag. The Node.js QUIC implementation is exposed by the core `net` module. V8 8.6 (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35415): The V8 JavaScript engine has been updated to V8 8.6 (V8 8.4 is the latest available in Node.js 14).

V8 8.6 (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35415): The V8 JavaScript engine has been updated to V8 8.6 (V8 8.4 is the latest available in Node.js 14). Along with performance tweaks and improvements the V8 update also brings the following language features: * `Promise.any()` (from V8 8.5) * `AggregateError` (from V8 8.5) * `String.prototype.replaceAll()` (from V8 8.5) * Logical assignment operators `&&=`, `||=`, and `??=` (from V8 8.5) Other Notable Changes: -

* {Object} The global namespace object.
In browsers, the top-level scope is the global scope. This means that
within the browser `var something` will define a new global variable. In
Node.js this is different. The top-level scope is not the global scope;
`var something` inside a Node.js module will be local to that module.

2020-10-20, Version 15.0.0 (Current) Notable changes: Deprecations and Removals: - **build**: remove --build-v8-with-gn configure option (Yang Guo) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/27576) - **build**: drop support for VS2017 (Michaël Zasso) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33694) - **doc**: move DEP0018 to End-of-Life (Rich Trott) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35316) - **fs**: deprecation warning on recursive rmdir (Ian Sutherland) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35562) - **lib**: add EventTarget-related browser globals (Anna Henningsen) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35496) - **net**: remove long deprecated server.connections property (James M Snell) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33647) - **repl**: remove deprecated repl.memory function (Ruben Bridgewater) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33286) - **repl**: remove deprecated repl.turnOffEditorMode() function (Ruben Bridgewater) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33286) - **repl**: remove deprecated repl.parseREPLKeyword() function (Ruben Bridgewater) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33286) - **repl**: remove deprecated bufferedCommand property (Ruben Bridgewater) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33286) - **repl**: remove deprecated .rli (Ruben Bridgewater) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33286) - **src**: remove deprecated node debug command (James M Snell) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33648) - **timers**: introduce timers/promises (James M Snell) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33950) - **util**: change default value of `maxStringLength` to 10000 (unknown) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/32744) - **wasi**: drop --experimental-wasm-bigint requirement (Colin Ihrig) (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35415) npm 7 (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/35631): Node.js 15 comes with a new major release of npm, npm 7. npm 7 comes with many new features - including npm workspaces and a new package-lock.json format. npm 7 also includes yarn.lock file support. One of the big changes in npm 7 is that peer dependencies are now installed by default. Throw On Unhandled Rejections (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33021): As of Node.js 15, the default mode for `unhandledRejection` is changed to `throw` (from `warn`). In `throw` mode, if an `unhandledRejection` hook is not set, the `unhandledRejection` is raised as an uncaught exception. Users that have an `unhandledRejection` hook should see no change in behavior, and it’s still possible to switch modes using the `--unhandled-rejections=mode` process flag. QUIC (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/32379): Node.js 15 comes with experimental support QUIC, which can be enabled by compiling Node.js with the `--experimental-quic` configuration flag. The Node.js QUIC implementation is exposed by the core `net` module.

One of the big changes in npm 7 is that peer dependencies are now installed by default. Throw On Unhandled Rejections (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/33021): As of Node.js 15, the default mode for `unhandledRejection` is changed to `throw` (from `warn`). In `throw` mode, if an `unhandledRejection` hook is not set, the `unhandledRejection` is raised as an uncaught exception. Users that have an `unhandledRejection` hook should see no change in behavior, and it’s still possible to switch modes using the `--unhandled-rejections=mode` process flag. QUIC (https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/32379): Node.js 15 comes with experimental support QUIC, which can be enabled by compiling Node.js with the `--experimental-quic` configuration flag.

* `callback` {Function} Function to be queued.
The `queueMicrotask()` method queues a microtask to invoke `callback`. If
`callback` throws an exception, the [`process` object][] `'uncaughtException'`
event will be emitted.
The microtask queue is managed by V8 and may be used in a similar manner to
the [`process.nextTick()`][] queue, which is managed by Node.js. The
`process.nextTick()` queue is always processed before the microtask queue
within each turn of the Node.js event loop.
```js
// Here, `queueMicrotask()` is used to ensure the 'load' event is always
// emitted asynchronously, and therefore consistently. Using
// `process.nextTick()` here would result in the 'load' event always emitting
// before any other promise jobs.
DataHandler.prototype.load = async function load(key) {
const hit = this._cache.get(key);
if (hit !== undefined) {
queueMicrotask(() => {
this.emit('load', hit);
});
return;
}
const data = await fetchData(key);
this._cache.set(key, data);
this.emit('load', data);
};
```

2021-10-19, Version 17.0.0 (Current) Notable Changes: Deprecations and Removals: - (SEMVER-MAJOR) dns: runtime deprecate type coercion of `dns.lookup` options (Antoine du Hamel) [https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/39793] - doc: deprecate (doc-only) http abort related (dr-js) [https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/36670] - (SEMVER-MAJOR) module: subpath folder mappings EOL (Guy Bedford) [https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/40121] - (SEMVER-MAJOR) module: runtime deprecate trailing slash patterns (Guy Bedford) [https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/40117] OpenSSL 3.0: Node.js now includes OpenSSL 3.0, specifically https://github.com/quictls/openssl which provides QUIC support. While OpenSSL 3.0 APIs should be mostly compatible with those provided by OpenSSL 1.1.1, we do anticipate some ecosystem impact due to tightened restrictions on the allowed algorithms and key sizes. If you hit an `ERR_OSSL_EVP_UNSUPPORTED` error in your application with Node.js 17, it’s likely that your application or a module you’re using is attempting to use an algorithm or key size which is no longer allowed by default with OpenSSL 3.0. A command-line option, `--openssl-legacy-provider`, has been added to revert to the legacy provider as a temporary workaround for these tightened restrictions. For details about all the features in OpenSSL 3.0 please see https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2021/09/07/OpenSSL3.Final.
