- The distribution of a native add-on is just as important as its implementation.
4
- In order to install a native add-on it's important to have all the necessary
5
- dependencies installed and well configured (see the [setup](setup.md) section).
6
- The end-user will need to compile the add-on when they will do an `npm install`
7
- and in some cases this could create problems. To avoid the compilation process it's
8
- possible to ditribute the native add-on in pre-built form for different platform
9
- and architectures. The prebuild tools help to create and distrubute the pre-built
10
- form of a native add-on.

- # Promise
2
-
3
- The `Napi::Promise` class, along with its `Napi::Promise::Deferred` class, implement the ability to create, resolve, and reject Promise objects.
4
-
5
- The basic approach is to create a `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object and return to your caller the value returned by the `Napi::Promise::Deferred::Promise` method. For example:
6
-
7
- ```cpp
8
- Napi::Value YourFunction(const Napi::CallbackInfo& info) {
9
- // your code goes here...
10
- Napi::Promise::Deferred deferred = Napi::Promise::Deferred::New(info.Env());
11
- // deferred needs to survive this call...
12
- return deferred.Promise();
13
- }
14
- ```
15
-
16
- Later, when the asynchronous process completes, call either the `Resolve` or `Reject` method on the `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object created earlier:
17
-
18
- ```cpp
19
- deferred.Resolve(String::New(info.Env(), "OK"));
20
- ```
21
-
22
- ## Promise::Deferred Methods
23
-
24
- ### Factory Method
25
-
26
- ```cpp
27
- static Napi::Promise::Deferred Napi::Promise::Deferred::New(napi_env env);
28
- ```
29
-
30
- * `[in] env`: The `napi_env` environment in which to create the `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object.
31
-
32
- ### Constructor
33
-
34
- ```cpp
35
- Napi::Promise::Deferred(napi_env env);
36
- ```
37
-
38
- * `[in] env`: The `napi_env` environment in which to construct the `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object.
39
-
40
- ### Env
41
-
42
- ```cpp
43
- Napi::Env Napi::Promise::Deferred::Env() const;
44
- ```
45
-
46
- Returns the Env environment this `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object is associated with.
47
-
48
- ### Promise
49
-
50
- ```cpp
51
- Napi::Promise Napi::Promise::Deferred::Promise() const;
52
- ```
53
-
54
- Returns the `Napi::Promise` object held by the `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object.
55
-
56
- ### Resolve
57
-
58
- ```cpp
59
- void Napi::Promise::Deferred::Resolve(napi_value value) const;
60
- ```
61
-
62
- Resolves the `Napi::Promise` object held by the `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object.
63
-
64
- * `[in] value`: The N-API primitive value with which to resolve the `Napi::Promise`.
65
-
66
- ### Reject
67
-
68
- ```cpp
69
- void Napi::Promise::Deferred::Reject(napi_value value) const;
70
- ```
71
-
72
- Rejects the Promise object held by the `Napi::Promise::Deferred` object.
73
-
74

- # Property Descriptor
2
-
3
- A [`Napi::Object`](object.md) can be assigned properites via its [`DefineProperty`](object.md#defineproperty) and [`DefineProperties`](object.md#defineproperties) functions, which take PropertyDescrptor(s) as their parameters. The `Napi::PropertyDescriptor` can contain either values or functions, which are then assigned to the `Napi::Object`. Note that a single instance of a `Napi::PropertyDescriptor` class can only contain either one value, or at most two functions. PropertyDescriptors can only be created through the class methods [`Accessor`](#accessor), [`Function`](#function), or [`Value`](#value), each of which return a new static instance of a `Napi::PropertyDescriptor`.

- Holds a counted reference to a [`Napi::Value`](value.md) object; initially a weak reference unless otherwise specified, may be changed to/from a strong reference by adjusting the refcount.
4
-
5
- The referenced `Napi::Value` is not immediately destroyed when the reference count is zero; it is merely then eligible for garbage-collection if there are no other references to the `Napi::Value`.
6
-
7
- `Napi::Reference` objects allocated in static space, such as a global static instance, must call the `SuppressDestruct` method to prevent its destructor, running at program shutdown time, from attempting to reset the reference when the environment is no longer valid.

9
- The following classes inherit, either directly or indirectly, from `Napi::Reference`:

106
-

108
- void Napi::Reference::SuppressDestruct();
109

110
-
111
- Call this method on a `Napi::Reference` that is declared as static data to prevent its destructor, running at program shutdown time, from attempting to reset the reference when the environment is no longer valid.

- # Setup
2
-
3
- ## Prerequisites
4
-
5
- Before starting to use **N-API** you need to assure you have the following
6
- prerequisites:
7
-
8
- * **Node.JS** see: [Installing Node.js](https://nodejs.org/)
9
-
10
- * **Node.js native addon build tool**
11
-
12
- - **[node-gyp](node-gyp.md)**
13
-
14
- ## Installation and usage
15
-
16
- To use **N-API** in a native module:
17
-
18
- 1. Add a dependency on this package to `package.json`:
19
-
20
- ```json
21
- "dependencies": {
22
- "node-addon-api": "*",
23
- }
24
- ```
25
-
26
- 2. Reference this package's include directory and gyp file in `binding.gyp`:
27
-
28
- ```gyp
29
- 'include_dirs': ["<!@(node -p \"require('node-addon-api').include\")"],
30
- ```
31
-
32
- 3. Decide whether the package will enable C++ exceptions in the N-API wrapper.
33
- The base ABI-stable C APIs do not throw or handle C++ exceptions, but the
34
- N-API C++ wrapper classes may _optionally_
35
- [integrate C++ and JavaScript exception-handling
36
- ](https://nodejs.github.io/node-addon-api/class_napi_1_1_error.html).
37
- To enable that capability, C++ exceptions must be enabled in `binding.gyp`:
38
-
39
- ```gyp
40
- 'cflags!': [ '-fno-exceptions' ],
41
- 'cflags_cc!': [ '-fno-exceptions' ],
42
- 'xcode_settings': {
43
- 'GCC_ENABLE_CPP_EXCEPTIONS': 'YES',
44
- 'CLANG_CXX_LIBRARY': 'libc++',
45
- 'MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET': '10.7',
46
- },
47
- 'msvs_settings': {
48
- 'VCCLCompilerTool': { 'ExceptionHandling': 1 },
49
- },
50
- ```
51
-
52
- Alternatively, disable use of C++ exceptions in N-API:
53
-
54
- ```gyp
55
- 'defines': [ 'NAPI_DISABLE_CPP_EXCEPTIONS' ],
56
- ```
57
- 4. If you would like your native addon to support OSX, please also add the
58
- following settings in the `binding.gyp` file:
59
-
60
- ```gyp
61
- ['OS=="mac"', {
62
- 'cflags+': ['-fvisibility=hidden'],
63
- 'xcode_settings': {
64
- 'GCC_SYMBOLS_PRIVATE_EXTERN': 'YES', # -fvisibility=hidden
65
- }
66
- }]
67
- ```
68
-
69
- 5. Include `napi.h` in the native module code.
70
- To ensure only ABI-stable APIs are used, DO NOT include
71
- `node.h`, `nan.h`, or `v8.h`.
72
-
73
- ```C++
74
- #include "napi.h"
75
- ```
76
-
77
- At build time, the N-API back-compat library code will be used only when the
78
- targeted node version *does not* have N-API built-in.
79
-
80
- The preprocessor directive `NODE_ADDON_API_DISABLE_DEPRECATED` can be defined at
81
- compile time before including `napi.h` to skip the definition of deprecated APIs.
