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 🙏

Overview

node-zookeeper - A Node.js client for Apache Zookeeper.

This node module is implemented on top of the official ZooKeeper C Client API, supporting ZooKeeper server v3.5.x - v3.8.x. Have a look at the official docs for further details on behavior.

Latest changes are described in the changelog

Installation

npm install zookeeper

And you're done!

(note the name zookeeper in lowercase)

Examples

const ZooKeeper = require('zookeeper');

The ZooKeeper client support both callbacks and Promises using the then or async/await syntax.

Documentation

The source code is documented with JSDoc code comments and TypeScript type declarations.

Also, have a look at the API documentation here:

Example: create a client

Create an instance of the ZooKeeper client:

function createClient(timeoutMs = 5000) {
    const config = {
        connect: host,
        timeout: timeoutMs,
        debug_level: ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_LOG_LEVEL_WARN,
        host_order_deterministic: false,
    };

    return new ZooKeeper(config);
}

const client = createClient();

The client is ready when connected to a ZooKeeper server:

client.on('connect', () => {
    // start using the client
});

client.init(config);

Example: create a node

Using the API:

const path = '/myPath';
try {
    const createdPath = await client.create(path, data, ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_EPHEMERAL);

    console.log(`(created: ${createdPath})`);
} catch (error) {
    console.log(`${path} already exists`);
}

More examples

Have a look at the code in the examples folder: with master, workers, tasks and listeners scenarios.

API Reference

Methods: async/await enabled client methods

:green_circle: New since 5.2.1: :red_circle: the async functions will reject, when the underlying client returns an error code. This is a bug fix. Before this, errors were failing silently.

  • init(options)
  • connect(options, connect_cb)
  • close()
  • path = await create(path, data, flags, ttl)
  • mkdirp(path, callback(Error))
  • stat = await exists(path, watch)
    • rejects if node does not exist. There's also a pathExists as an alternative.
  • trueOrFalseValue = await pathExists(path, watch)
  • [stat, string|Buffer] = await get(path, watch)
  • children = await get_children(path, watch)
  • [children, stat] = await get_children2( path, watch)
    • return value types:
      • children is an array of strings
      • stat is an object
  • stat = await set(path, data, version)
  • val = await sync(path)
  • delete_ (path, version)
    • (note the trailing _)
  • config = getconfig(watch)
  • reconfig(joining, leaving, members, config_version)
  • set_acl(path, version, acl)
  • acl = await get_acl(path)
  • add_auth(scheme, auth)

The watcher methods are forward-looking subscriptions that can recieve multiple callbacks whenever a matching event occurs.

  • stat = await w_exists(path, watch_cb)
    • rejects if node does not exist. There's also a w_pathExists as an alternative.
  • trueOrFalseValue = await w_pathExists(path, watch)
  • [stat, string|Buffer] = await w_get(path, watch_cb)
  • children = await w_get_children(path, watch_cb)
  • [children, stat] = await w_get_children2 (path, watch_cb)
    • return value types:
      • children is an array of strings
      • stat is an object
  • config = w_getconfig(watch_cb)

Methods: callbacks based client methods

  • init(options)
  • connect(options, connect_cb)
  • close()
  • a_create(path, data, flags, path_cb)
  • a_createTtl(path, data, flags, ttl, pathCb)
  • mkdirp(path, callback(Error))
  • a_exists(path, watch, stat_cb)
  • a_get(path, watch, data_cb)
  • a_get_children(path, watch, child_cb)
  • a_get_children2(path, watch, child2_cb)
  • a_set(path, data, version, stat_cb)
  • a_sync(path, value_cb)
  • a_delete_ (path, version, void_cb)
    • (note the trailing _)
  • a_getconfig(watch, data_cb)
  • a_reconfig(joining, leaving, members, version, data_cb)
  • a_set_acl(path, version, acl, void_cb)
  • a_get_acl(path, acl_cb)
  • add_auth(scheme, auth, void_cb)

The watcher methods are forward-looking subscriptions that can recieve multiple callbacks whenever a matching event occurs.

  • aw_exists(path, watch_cb, stat_cb)
  • aw_get(path, watch_cb, data_cb)
  • aw_get_children(path, watch_cb, child_cb)
  • aw_get_children2(path, watch_cb, child2_cb)
  • aw_getconfig(watch_cb, data_cb)

Callback Signatures

  • path_cb : function(rc, error, path)
  • stat_cb : function(rc, error, stat)
    • Invoked with error set if path does not exist, also for a_exists() calls
  • data_cb : function(rc, error, stat, data)
  • child_cb : function(rc, error, children)
  • child2_cb : function(rc, error, children, stat)
  • value_cb : function(rc, error, value)
  • void_cb : function(rc, error)
  • watch_cb : function(type, state, path)
  • acl_cb : function(rc, error, acl, stat)
  • connect_cb: function(err, zookeeper)

Input Parameters

  • options : object. valid keys: { connect, timeout, debug_level, host_order_deterministic, data_as_buffer, response_counter_limit }
  • path : string
  • data : string or Buffer
  • flags : int32. Supported:

    • ZOO_CONTAINER
    • ZOO_PERSISTENT_WITH_TTL
    • ZOO_PERSISTENT_SEQUENTIAL_WITH_TTL
  • version : int32. null or undefined will skip version checking.

Output Parameters

  • path is a string
  • data is either a Buffer (default), or a string (this is controlled by data_as_buffer = true/false)
  • children is an array of strings
  • rc is an int (error codes from zk api)
  • error is a string (error string from zk api)
  • type is an int event type (from zk api)
  • state is an int (state when the watcher fired from zk api)
  • stat is an object with the following attributes:
    • long czxid // created zxid
    • long mzxid // last modified zxid
    • long ctime // created
    • long mtime // last modified
    • int version // version
    • int cversion // child version
    • int aversion // acl version
    • string ephemeralOwner // owner session id if ephemeral, 0 otw
    • int dataLength // length of the data in the node
    • int numChildren // number of children of this node
    • long pzxid // last modified children
  • acl is an array of acls objects, single acl object has following key
    • int perm // permisions
    • string scheme // authorisation scheme (digest, auth)
    • string auth // authorisation credentials (username:hashed_password)
  • zookeeper is the ZooKeeper instance on which connect was called

Session state machine is well described in the Zookeeper docs

ACL and authorisation

The library comes with 3 default ACL levels defined (comes from ZK):

  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_OPEN_ACL_UNSAFE - anyone can do anything
  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_READ_ACL_UNSAFE - anyone can read
  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_CREATOR_ALL_ACL - gives full rights to authorised user (you have to be authorised first, otherwise it will result with "invalid acl")

If you don't want to use predefined ACLs you can define your own (the ACL object is described above), for limiting permisions you can use:

  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_PERM_READ - read permission
  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_PERM_WRITE - write permission
  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_PERM_CREATE - create permission
  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_PERM_DELETE - delete permission
  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_PERM_ADMIN - admin permission
  • ZooKeeper.constants.ZOO_PERM_ALL - all of the above

For more details please refer to ZooKeeper docs.

Windows support

Windows 10 is supported out of the box with no additional requirements other than Node.js itself.

Running a different Windows version? Install CMake to build a ZooKeeper client on Windows and install Python.

Also, run npm install in a Powershell window. For further instructions visit node-gyp documentation.

Windows support has been enabled mainly for supporting development, not for production.

Development

To run full output during the module build one has to use ZK_INSTALL_VERBOSE flag.

ZK_INSTALL_VERBOSE=1 npm install

For Windows (PowerShell): verbose build

$env:ZK_INSTALL_VERBOSE=1
npm install

This PowerShell command will remove the environment variable:

Remove-Item Env:\ZK_INSTALL_VERBOSE

Implementation Notes

  • Zookeeper C API library comes in 2 flavours: single-threaded and multi-threaded. For node.js, single-threaded library provides the most sense since all events coming from ZooKeeper responses have to be dispatched to the main JavaScript thread.
  • The C++ code uses the same logging facility that ZK C API uses internally. Hence zk_log.h file checked into this project. The file is considered ZooKeeper internal and is not installed into /usr/local/include
  • Multiple simultaneous ZooKeeper connections are supported and tested
  • All ZooKeeper constants are exposed as read-only properties of the ZooKeeper function, like ZK.ZOO_EPHEMERAL
  • All ZooKeeper API methods including watchers are supported.

Known Bugs & Issues

  • The lib will segfault if you try to use a ZooKeeper intance after the on_closed event is delivered (possibly as a result of session timeout etc.) YOU MAY NOT re-use the closed ZooKeeper instance. You should allocate a new one and initialize it as a completely new client. Any and all watchers from your first instance are lost, though they may fire (before the on_close) see below.
  • Any established watches may/will be fired once each when/if your client is expired by the ZooKeeper server, the input arguments are observed to be: type=-1, state=1, path="". Care should be taken to handle this differently than a "real" watch event if that matters to your application.
