Prerequests

You will need to install:

Node.js >= v16.15.0
npm >= v8
Emscripten >= v3.1.9 / wasi-sdk / LLVM clang with wasm support
(Optional) CMake >= v3.13
(Optional) ninja
(Optional) make
(Optional) node-addon-api >= 6.1.0

There are several choices to get make for Windows user

Install mingw-w64, then use mingw32-make
Download MSVC prebuilt binary of GNU make, add to %Path% then rename it to mingw32-make
Install Visual Studio 2022 C++ desktop workload, use nmake in Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt
Install Visual C++ Build Tools, use nmake in Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt

Verify your environment:

node -v
npm -v
emcc -v

# clang -v
# clang -print-targets # ensure wasm32 target exists

cmake --version

# if you use ninja
ninja --version

# if you use make
make -v

# if you use nmake in Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt
nmake /?

Build from source

You need to set EMSDK and WASI_SDK_PATH environment variables.

git clone https://github.com/toyobayashi/emnapi.git
cd ./emnapi
npm install -g node-gyp
npm install
npm run build             # output ./packages/*/dist
node ./script/release.js  # output ./out

# test
npm run rebuild:test
npm test

See CONTRIBUTING for more details.

Quick Start

NPM Install

npm install -D emnapi
npm install @emnapi/runtime

# for non-emscripten
npm install @emnapi/core

# if you use node-addon-api
npm install node-addon-api

Each package should match the same version.

Using C

Create hello.c.

#include <node_api.h>

#define NODE_API_CALL(env, the_call)                            \
  do {                                                          \
    if ((the_call) != napi_ok) {                                \
      const napi_extended_error_info *error_info;               \
      napi_get_last_error_info((env), &error_info);             \
      bool is_pending;                                          \
      const char* err_message = error_info->error_message;      \
      napi_is_exception_pending((env), &is_pending);            \
      if (!is_pending) {                                        \
        const char* error_message = err_message != NULL ?       \
          err_message :                                         \
          "empty error message";                                \
        napi_throw_error((env), NULL, error_message);           \
      }                                                         \
      return NULL;                                              \
    }                                                           \
  } while (0)

static napi_value js_hello(napi_env env, napi_callback_info info) {
  napi_value world;
  const char* str = "world";
  NODE_API_CALL(env, napi_create_string_utf8(env, str, NAPI_AUTO_LENGTH, &world));
  return world;
}

NAPI_MODULE_INIT() {
  napi_value hello;
  NODE_API_CALL(env, napi_create_function(env, "hello", NAPI_AUTO_LENGTH,
                                      js_hello, NULL, &hello));
  NODE_API_CALL(env, napi_set_named_property(env, exports, "hello", hello));
  return exports;
}

The C code is equivalant to the following JavaScript:

module.exports = (function (exports) {
  const hello = function hello () {
    // native code in js_hello
    const world = 'world'
    return world
  }

  exports.hello = hello
  return exports
})(module.exports)

Initialization

To initialize emnapi, you need to import the emnapi runtime to create a Context by createContext or getDefaultContext first. Each context owns isolated Node-API object such as napi_env, napi_value, napi_ref. If you have multiple emnapi modules, you should reuse the same Context across them.

declare namespace emnapi {
  // module '@emnapi/runtime'
  export class Context { /* ... */ }
  /** Create a new context */
  export function createContext (): Context
  /** Create or get */
  export function getDefaultContext (): Context
  // ...
}

emscripten

then call Module.emnapiInit after emscripten runtime initialized. Module.emnapiInit only do initialization once, it will always return the same binding exports after successfully initialized.

declare namespace Module {
  interface EmnapiInitOptions {
    context: emnapi.Context

    /** node_api_get_module_file_name */
    filename?: string

    /**
     * Support following async_hooks related things
     * on Node.js runtime only
     * 
     * napi_async_init,
     * napi_async_destroy,
     * napi_make_callback,
     * async resource parameter of
     * napi_create_async_work and napi_create_threadsafe_function
     */
    nodeBinding?: typeof import('@emnapi/node-binding')

    /** See Multithread part */
    asyncWorkPoolSize?: number
  }
  export function emnapiInit (options: EmnapiInitOptions): any
}

<script src="node_modules/@emnapi/runtime/dist/emnapi.min.js"></script>
<script src="hello.js"></script>
<script>
Module.onRuntimeInitialized = function () {
  var binding;
  try {
    binding = Module.emnapiInit({ context: emnapi.getDefaultContext() });
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
    return;
  }
  var msg = 'hello ' + binding.hello();
  window.alert(msg);
};

// if -sMODULARIZE=1
Module({ /* Emscripten module init options */ }).then(function (Module) {
  var binding = Module.emnapiInit({ context: emnapi.getDefaultContext() });
});
</script>

If you are using Visual Studio Code and have Live Server extension installed, you can right click the HTML file in Visual Studio Code source tree and click Open With Live Server, then you can see the hello world alert!

Running on Node.js:

const emnapi = require('@emnapi/runtime')
const Module = require('./hello.js')

Module.onRuntimeInitialized = function () {
  let binding
  try {
    binding = Module.emnapiInit({ context: emnapi.getDefaultContext() })
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err)
    return
  }
  const msg = `hello ${binding.hello()}`
  console.log(msg)
}

// if -sMODULARIZE=1
Module({ /* Emscripten module init options */ }).then((Module) => {
  const binding = Module.emnapiInit({ context: emnapi.getDefaultContext() })
})

wasi-sdk or clang wasm32

For non-emscripten, you need to use @emnapi/core. The initialization is similar to emscripten.

<script src="node_modules/@emnapi/runtime/dist/emnapi.min.js"></script>
<script src="node_modules/@emnapi/core/dist/emnapi-core.min.js"></script>
<script>
emnapiCore.instantiateNapiModule(fetch('./hello.wasm'), {
  context: emnapi.getDefaultContext(),
  overwriteImports (importObject) {
    // importObject.env = {
    //   ...importObject.env,
    //   ...importObject.napi,
    //   ...importObject.emnapi,
    //   // ...
    // }
  }
}).then(({ instance, module, napiModule }) => {
  const binding = napiModule.exports
  // ...
})
</script>

Using WASI on Node.js

const { instantiateNapiModule } = require('@emnapi/core')
const { getDefaultContext } = require('@emnapi/runtime')
const { WASI } = require('wasi')
const fs = require('fs')

instantiateNapiModule(fs.promises.readFile('./hello.wasm'), {
  wasi: new WASI({ /* ... */ }),
  context: getDefaultContext(),
  overwriteImports (importObject) {
    // importObject.env = {
    //   ...importObject.env,
    //   ...importObject.napi,
    //   ...importObject.emnapi,
    //   // ...
    // }
  }
}).then(({ instance, module, napiModule }) => {
  const binding = napiModule.exports
  // ...
})

Using WASI on browser, you can use WASI polyfill in wasm-util, and memfs-browser

import { instantiateNapiModule } from '@emnapi/core'
import { getDefaultContext } from '@emnapi/runtime'
import { WASI } from '@tybys/wasm-util'
import { Volume, createFsFromVolume } from 'memfs-browser'

const fs = createFsFromVolume(Volume.fromJSON({ /* ... */ }))
instantiateNapiModule(fetch('./hello.wasm'), {
  wasi: new WASI({ fs, /* ... */ })
  context: getDefaultContext(),
  overwriteImports (importObject) {
    // importObject.env = {
    //   ...importObject.env,
    //   ...importObject.napi,
    //   ...importObject.emnapi,
    //   // ...
    // }
  }
}).then(({ instance, module, napiModule }) => {
  const binding = napiModule.exports
  // ...
})

Using C++ and node-addon-api

Require node-addon-api >= 6.1.0

npm install node-addon-api

Note: C++ wrapper can only be used to target Node.js v14.6.0+ and modern browsers those support FinalizationRegistry and WeakRef (v8 engine v8.4+)!

Create hello.cpp.

#include <napi.h>

Napi::String Method(const Napi::CallbackInfo& info) {
  Napi::Env env = info.Env();
  return Napi::String::New(env, "world");
}

Napi::Object Init(Napi::Env env, Napi::Object exports) {
  exports.Set(Napi::String::New(env, "hello"),
              Napi::Function::New(env, Method)).Check();
  return exports;
}

NODE_API_MODULE(NODE_GYP_MODULE_NAME, Init)

Compile hello.cpp using em++. C++ exception is disabled by Emscripten default, and not supported by wasi-sdk, so predefine -DNAPI_DISABLE_CPP_EXCEPTIONS and -DNODE_ADDON_API_ENABLE_MAYBE here. If you would like to enable C++ exception, use -sDISABLE_EXCEPTION_CATCHING=0 instead and remove .Check() call. See official documentation here.

Using node-gyp (Experimental)

Currently node-gyp works on Linux only and don't support static library linking in cross-compiling. There are opened PRs to try to make node-gyp work fine.

If you experienced issues on Windows or macOS, please check the PRs for upstream changes detail and see emnapi-node-gyp-test for examples.

They are available in emnapi, but you need to know more details before you start to use them. Now emnapi has 3 implementations of async work and 2 implementations of TSFN:

Async work
- A. Libuv threadpool and pthread based implementation in C
- B. Single thread mock in JavaScript
- C. Web worker based implementation in C (stack allocation) and JavaScript

There are some limitations on browser about wasi-libc's pthread implementation, for example pthread_mutex_lock may call __builtin_wasm_memory_atomic_wait32(memory.atomic.wait32) which is disallowed in browser JS main thread. While Emscripten's pthread implementation has considered usage in browser. If you need to run your addon with multithreaded features on browser, we recommend you use Emscripten A & D, or bare wasm32 C & E.

Note: For browsers, all the multithreaded features relying on Web Workers (Emscripten pthread also relying on Web Workers) require cross-origin isolation to enable SharedArrayBuffer. You can make a page cross-origin isolated by serving the page with these headers:

Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: require-corp
Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin

If you would like to avoid SharedArrayBuffer and cross-origin isolation, please use B & E (link against libemnapi-basic.a), see the following table for more details.

Preprocess Macro Options

`-DEMNAPI_WORKER_POOL_SIZE=4`

This is UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE equivalent at compile time, if not predefined, emnapi will read asyncWorkPoolSize option or UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE from Emscripten environment variable at runtime:

Module.init({
  // ...
  asyncWorkPoolSize: 2
})

// if asyncWorkPoolSize is not specified
Module.preRun = Module.preRun || [];
Module.preRun.push(function () {
  if (typeof ENV !== 'undefined') {
    ENV.UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE = '2';
  }
});

// wasi
instantiateNapiModule({
  // ...
  asyncWorkPoolSize: 2
})
// if asyncWorkPoolSize is not specified
new WASI({
  env: {
    UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE: '2'
  }
})

It represent max of EMNAPI_WORKER_POOL_SIZE async work (napi_queue_async_work) can be executed in parallel. Default is not defined.

You can set both PTHREAD_POOL_SIZE and EMNAPI_WORKER_POOL_SIZE to number of CPU cores in general. If you use another library function which may create N child threads in async work, then you need to set PTHREAD_POOL_SIZE to EMNAPI_WORKER_POOL_SIZE * (N + 1).

This option only has effect if you use -pthread. Emnapi will create EMNAPI_WORKER_POOL_SIZE threads when initializing, it will throw error if PTHREAD_POOL_SIZE < EMNAPI_WORKER_POOL_SIZE && PTHREAD_POOL_SIZE_STRICT == 2.

See Issue #8 for more detail.

`-DEMNAPI_NEXTTICK_TYPE=0`

This option only has effect if you use -pthread, Default is 0. Tell emnapi how to delay async work in uv_async_send / uv__async_close.

0: Use setImmediate() (Node.js native setImmediate or browser MessageChannel and port.postMessage)
1: Use Promise.resolve().then()

`-DEMNAPI_USE_PROXYING=1`

This option only has effect if you use emscripten -pthread. Default is 1 if emscripten version >= 3.1.9, else 0.

0

Use JavaScript implementation to send async work from worker threads, runtime code will access the Emscripten internal PThread object to add custom worker message listener.
1:

Use Emscripten proxying API to send async work from worker threads in C. If you experience something wrong, you can switch set this to 0 and feel free to create an issue.
