Thanks to the crazy changes in V8 (and some in Node core), keeping native addons compiling happily across versions, particularly 0.10 to 0.12 to 4.0, is a minor nightmare. The goal of this project is to store all logic necessary to develop native Node.js addons without having to inspect `NODE_MODULE_VERSION` and get yourself into a macro-tangle.
16
 
17
This project also contains some helper utilities that make addon development a bit more pleasant.

## Usage
31
 
32
Simply add **NAN** as a dependency in the *package.json* of your Node addon:
33
 
34
``` bash
35
$ npm install --save nan
36
```
37
 
38
Pull in the path to **NAN** in your *binding.gyp* so that you can use `#include <nan.h>` in your *.cpp* files:
39
 
40
``` python
41
"include_dirs" : [
42
    "<!(node -e \"require('nan')\")"
43
]
44
```
45
 
46
This works like a `-I<path-to-NAN>` when compiling your addon.
47

## Example
50
 
51
Just getting started with Nan? Take a look at the **[Node Add-on Examples](https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-examples)**.
52
 
53
Refer to a [quick-start **Nan** Boilerplate](https://github.com/fcanas/node-native-boilerplate) for a ready-to-go project that utilizes basic Nan functionality.
54
 
55
For a simpler example, see the **[async pi estimation example](https://github.com/nodejs/nan/tree/master/examples/async_pi_estimate)** in the examples directory for full code and an explanation of what this Monte Carlo Pi estimation example does. Below are just some parts of the full example that illustrate the use of **NAN**.
56
 
57
Yet another example is **[nan-example-eol](https://github.com/CodeCharmLtd/nan-example-eol)**. It shows newline detection implemented as a native addon.
58
 
59
Also take a look at our comprehensive **[C++ test suite](https://github.com/nodejs/nan/tree/master/test/cpp)** which has a plehora of code snippets for your pasting pleasure.

### JavaScript-accessible methods
74
 
75
A _template_ is a blueprint for JavaScript functions and objects in a context. You can use a template to wrap C++ functions and data structures within JavaScript objects so that they can be manipulated from JavaScript. See the V8 Embedders Guide section on [Templates](https://developers.google.com/v8/embed#templates) for further information.
76
 
77
In order to expose functionality to JavaScript via a template, you must provide it to V8 in a form that it understands. Across the versions of V8 supported by NAN, JavaScript-accessible method signatures vary widely, NAN fully abstracts method declaration and provides you with an interface that is similar to the most recent V8 API but is backward-compatible with older versions that still use the now-deceased `v8::Argument` type.

### Scopes
110
 
111
A _local handle_ is a pointer to an object. All V8 objects are accessed using handles, they are necessary because of the way the V8 garbage collector works.
112
 
113
A handle scope can be thought of as a container for any number of handles. When you've finished with your handles, instead of deleting each one individually you can simply delete their scope.
114
 
115
The creation of `HandleScope` objects is different across the supported versions of V8. Therefore, NAN provides its own implementations that can be used safely across these.
116
 
117
 - <a href="doc/scopes.md#api_nan_handle_scope"><b><code>Nan::HandleScope</code></b></a>
118
 - <a href="doc/scopes.md#api_nan_escapable_handle_scope"><b><code>Nan::EscapableHandleScope</code></b></a>
119
 
120
Also see the V8 Embedders Guide section on [Handles and Garbage Collection](https://developers.google.com/v8/embed#handles).
121
 
122
### Persistent references
123
 
124
An object reference that is independent of any `HandleScope` is a _persistent_ reference. Where a `Local` handle only lives as long as the `HandleScope` in which it was allocated, a `Persistent` handle remains valid until it is explicitly disposed.
125
 
126
Due to the evolution of the V8 API, it is necessary for NAN to provide a wrapper implementation of the `Persistent` classes to supply compatibility across the V8 versions supported.

137
 
138
### New
139
 
140
NAN provides a `Nan::New()` helper for the creation of new JavaScript objects in a way that's compatible across the supported versions of V8.

148
 
149
 
150
### Converters
151
 
152
NAN contains functions that convert `v8::Value`s to other `v8::Value` types and native types. Since type conversion is not guaranteed to succeed, they return `Nan::Maybe` types. These converters can be used in place of `value->ToX()` and `value->XValue()` (where `X` is one of the types, e.g. `Boolean`) in a way that provides a consistent interface across V8 versions. Newer versions of V8 use the new `v8::Maybe` and `v8::MaybeLocal` types for these conversions, older versions don't have this functionality so it is provided by NAN.
153
 
154
 - <a href="doc/converters.md#api_nan_to"><b><code>Nan::To()</code></b></a>
155
 
156
### Maybe Types
157
 
158
The `Nan::MaybeLocal` and `Nan::Maybe` types are monads that encapsulate `v8::Local` handles that _may be empty_.

### Script
198
 
199
NAN provides a `v8::Script` helpers as the API has changed over the supported versions of V8.

203
 
204
 
205
### Errors
206
 
207
NAN includes helpers for creating, throwing and catching Errors as much of this functionality varies across the supported versions of V8 and must be abstracted.
208
 
209
Note that an Error object is simply a specialized form of `v8::Value`.
210

228
### Buffers
229
 
230
NAN's `node::Buffer` helpers exist as the API has changed across supported Node versions. Use these methods to ensure compatibility.
231
 
232
 - <a href="doc/buffers.md#api_nan_new_buffer"><b><code>Nan::NewBuffer()</code></b></a>

234
 - <a href="doc/buffers.md#api_nan_free_callback"><b><code>Nan::FreeCallback()</code></b></a>
235
 
236
### Nan::Callback
237
 
238
`Nan::Callback` makes it easier to use `v8::Function` handles as callbacks. A class that wraps a `v8::Function` handle, protecting it from garbage collection and making it particularly useful for storage and use across asynchronous execution.
239
 
240
 - <a href="doc/callback.md#api_nan_callback"><b><code>Nan::Callback</code></b></a>
241
 
242
### Asynchronous work helpers
243
 
244
`Nan::AsyncWorker` and `Nan::AsyncProgressWorker` are helper classes that make working with asynchronous code easier.

249
 
250
### Strings & Bytes
251
 
252
Miscellaneous string & byte encoding and decoding functionality provided for compatibility across supported versions of V8 and Node. Implemented by NAN to ensure that all encoding types are supported, even for older versions of Node where they are missing.

266
 
267
### V8 internals
268
 
269
The hooks to access V8 internals—including GC and statistics—are different across the supported versions of V8, therefore NAN provides its own hooks that call the appropriate V8 methods.

## Governance & Contributing
326
 
327
NAN is governed by the [io.js](https://iojs.org/) Addon API Working Group
328
 
329
### Addon API Working Group (WG)
330
 
331
The NAN project is jointly governed by a Working Group which is responsible for high-level guidance of the project.
332
 
333
Members of the WG are also known as Collaborators, there is no distinction between the two, unlike other io.js projects.
334
 
335
The WG has final authority over this project including:
336
 
337
* Technical direction
338
* Project governance and process (including this policy)
339
* Contribution policy
340
* GitHub repository hosting
341
* Maintaining the list of additional Collaborators
342
 
343
For the current list of WG members, see the project [README.md](./README.md#collaborators).
344
 
345
Individuals making significant and valuable contributions are made members of the WG and given commit-access to the project. These individuals are identified by the WG and their addition to the WG is discussed via GitHub and requires unanimous consensus amongst those WG members participating in the discussion with a quorum of 50% of WG members required for acceptance of the vote.
346
 
347
_Note:_ If you make a significant contribution and are not considered for commit-access log an issue or contact a WG member directly.
348
 
349
For the current list of WG members / Collaborators, see the project [README.md](./README.md#collaborators).
350
 
351
### Consensus Seeking Process
352
 
353
The WG follows a [Consensus Seeking](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus-seeking_decision-making) decision making model.
354
 
355
Modifications of the contents of the NAN repository are made on a collaborative basis. Anybody with a GitHub account may propose a modification via pull request and it will be considered by the WG. All pull requests must be reviewed and accepted by a WG member with sufficient expertise who is able to take full responsibility for the change. In the case of pull requests proposed by an existing WG member, an additional WG member is required for sign-off. Consensus should be sought if additional WG members participate and there is disagreement around a particular modification.
356
 
357
If a change proposal cannot reach a consensus, a WG member can call for a vote amongst the members of the WG. Simple majority wins.
