Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

fast-native-fn

Provides a simple shortcut way to use v8-fast-api-calls.h without some of less interesting boilerpate code.

It also stubs the usage on older Node.js versions, so your code will still compile there. In those versions, the fast path will not be used.

Note: This module is intended as a temporary measure, until N-API gets support for v8-fast-api-calls.h.

Usage

First, make sure your binding.gyp adds the output of this module to the include_dirs.

    "include_dirs": ["<!(node -e \"require('fast-native-fn')\")"]

Now, use the header in your binding file.

Remember the constraints for fast call functions:

  • They must not allocate on the JS heap.
  • They must not call into JS code.
  • They (currently) can only return void.
  • Only the following argument types are supported:
    • bool
    • int32_t
    • uint32_t
    • int64_t
    • uint64_t
    • float32_t
    • float64_t
// binding.cc

/* include the header file */
#include <fast-native-fn.h>

/* define your native addon function as you normally would. */
void DoSomethingSlow(const FunctionCallbackInfo<Value>& args) {
  /* ... */
}

/* define the fast version of the function. note the constraints above. */
void DoSomethingFast(ApiObject receiver, int32_t arg0/*, ... */) {
  /* ... */
}

/* then in yout module's init function, use NODE_SET_FAST_METHOD instead of NODE_SET_METHOD */
NODE_SET_FAST_METHOD(
  exports,
  "doSomething",
  DoSomethingFast,
  DoSomethingSlow
  );

Make sure to run your code with --turbo-fast-api-calls to get enable the fast paths.
