Qode

Qode is a lightly modified fork of Node.js that allows Node's event loop to be merged with Qt's or any other Gui event loop. It is designed to be used together with @nodegui/nodegui. Qode achieves this by allowing message loop injection via a NodeJS addon.

Qode allows you to run both Qt and Node's event loops in the same thread. This is crucial to achieving low CPU footprint. Qode can be used as a drop in replacement of NodeJS and hence you could consider it as NodeJS with Qt powers 💪.

This npm module downloads the prebuilt qode for the current Operating System.

Build Instructions for qode can be found here: https://github.com/nodegui/qode

Installation

yarn add @nodegui/qode

or

npm install @nodegui/qode

Dowload mirrors

By default qode is downloaded using the github releases at

`https://github.com/nodegui/qodejs/releases/download/v${libVersion}-qode/${gitTagVersion}-${platform}-${arch}.tar.gz`

if you need to specify an alternative download path you can set the environment variable QODE_MIRROR like so and run npm install

QODE_MIRROR=https://github.com/nodegui/qodejs/releases/download/v1.2-qode/1.2-linux-x64.tar.gz npm install @nodegui/qodejs

If it doesnt download make sure to clear the cached qode at https://github.com/nodegui/qodejs/blob/89ccb29fe3c9d66426311a95369c47820bca4de5/qode/npm/src/config.js#L29
