Nodejs add-on for user-agent parser based on C implementation of uap-c library

globibot

Porting uap-c to the nodejs addon

Some experiments with Node.js N-API

uap-c

It's a C implementation of the user-agent string parser described in ua-parser/uap-core.

Build Dependencies

• libyaml
• libpcre3

Node Add-on Example with uap-c for native module

P.S.

One can end up this project. Alas, javascript version of uap-core is much faster than addon itself. x4 faster. No benefit from C code.

C is a king and shines when it is in the native environments among C-applications. But it is not the case when javascript addon based on C/C++.

Addons are shining when you need some C library solution. For example libnice, stun etc.
