## Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
**node-api-headers** contains the header files for the C-based Node-API
|
||||
provided by Node.js. Node-API is an API for building native addons that
|
||||
guarantees the ABI (Application Binary Interface) stability across versions
|
||||
of Node.js (see: [Node-API](https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/docs/api/n-api.html)).
|
||||
|
||||
Node-API headers are in the `include` folder. The Node-APIs that provide
|
||||
ECMAScript features from native code can be found in `js_native_api_types.h`
|
||||
and `js_native_api.h`. The APIs defined in these headers are included in
|
||||
`node_api_types.h` and `node_api.h`.
|
||||
The headers are structured in this way in order to allow implementations of
|
||||
Node-API outside of Node.js considering that for those implementations the
|
||||
Node.js specific APIs may not be applicable.
|
||||
|
||||
**node-api-headers** is also a package published on **npm** that could be used
|
||||
in a process to compile and build native addons for Node.js.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Install
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
npm i node-api-headers
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<a name="versions"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
## Versions
|
||||
|
||||
Node-API C headers are backward-compatible. Its version (e.g. `8`) is released
|
||||
separately from the Node.js version stream (e.g. `19.8.1`) and changes are
|
||||
backported to active Node.js LTS lines (e.g. `16.x` and `18.x`).
|
||||
|
||||
This package publishes semver-minor versions with new Node-API C headers changes.
|
||||
JS API breaking changes are published with new semver-major versions.

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## API
|
||||
|
||||
The module exports two properties `include_dir` and `symbols`.
|
||||
|
||||
### `include_dir`
|
||||
|
||||
This property is a string that represents the include path for the Node-API
|
||||
headers.
|
||||
|
||||
### `def_paths`
|
||||
|
||||
This property is an object that has two keys `js_native_api_def` and
|
||||
`node_api_def` which represents the path of the module definition file for the
|
||||
`js_native_api` and `node_api` respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
### `symbols`
|
||||
|
||||
This property is an object that represents the symbols exported by Node-API
|
||||
grouped by version and api types.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
V1: {
|
||||
js_native_api_symbols: [
|
||||
// List of symbols in js_native_api.h for the version 1.
|
||||
],
|
||||
node_api_symbols: [
|
||||
// List of symbols in node_api.h for the version 1
|
||||
]
|
||||
},
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
```
