# napi-macros
Set of utility macros to make writing [N-API](https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v9.x/docs/api/n-api.html) modules a little easier.
```
npm install napi-macros
```
Then add the following to your target in your binding.gyp file
```
"include_dirs": [
"<!(node -e \"require('napi-macros')\")"
],
```
These patterns mostly reflect how I use N-API so far. Feel free
to PR more.
## Usage
``` c
#include <node_api.h>
#include <napi-macros.h>
NAPI_METHOD(times_two) {
NAPI_ARGV(1)
NAPI_ARGV_INT32(number, 0)
number *= 2;
NAPI_RETURN_INT32(number)
}
NAPI_INIT() {
NAPI_EXPORT_FUNCTION(times_two)
}
```
Full working example can be found in the [example/](https://github.com/mafintosh/napi-macros/tree/master/example) folder.
## API
#### `NAPI_INIT()`
Setup init boilerplate. Pass the function body after.
``` c
static char *my_string = "hello";
NAPI_INIT() {
EXPORT_STRING(my_string)
}
```
#### `NAPI_METHOD(name)`
Setup method boilerplate. Pass the function body after.
``` c
NAPI_METHOD(add) {
NAPI_ARGV(2)
NAPI_ARGV_INT32(a, 0)
NAPI_ARGV_INT32(b, 1)
a = a + b
NAPI_RETURN_INT32(a)
}
```
#### `NAPI_ARGV(n)`
Setup up argv boilerplate. `n` is how many arguments you are expecting.
Expects the `napi_env` to be in scope as `env` and the `napi_callback_info` to be in scope as `info`.
#### `NAPI_ARGV_BUFFER(name, index)`
Get a buffer out of the arguments at the corresponding index.
Sets `char *name` and `size_t name_len` with the buffer and buffer length.
#### `NAPI_ARGV_BUFFER_CAST(type, name, index)`
Get a buffer out and cast the pointer to the specified type.
Note that the type should include the pointer star, i.e.
``` c
NAPI_ARGV_BUFFER_CAST(uv_udp_t *, handle, 0)
```
Will cast the 1st argument as `uv_udp_t` pointer.
#### `NAPI_ARGV_UINT32(name, index)`
Get an argument as a uint32.
Will throw if argument is not the right type.
#### `NAPI_ARGV_INT32(name, index)`
Get an argument as an int32.
Will throw if argument is not the right type.
#### `NAPI_ARGV_UTF8(name, length, index)`
Get an argument as a utf8 string.
`name` will be a `char[length]` array.
Will throw if argument is not the right type.
#### `NAPI_ARGV_UTF8_MALLOC(name, index)`
Get an argument as a utf8 string.
`name` will be a `char*`.
Like `NAPI_ARGV_UTF8()` but allocates `name` on the heap using `malloc()`, which should be `free()`'d after usage.
#### `NAPI_BUFFER_CAST(type, name, var)`
Same as `NAPI_ARGV_BUFFER_CAST` but takes a generic `napi_value` variable instead of an argv index.
#### `NAPI_BUFFER(name, var)`
Same as `NAPI_ARGV_BUFFER` but takes a generic `napi_value` variable instead of an argv index.
#### `NAPI_UTF8(name, size, var)`
Same as `NAPI_ARGV_UTF8` but takes a generic `napi_value` variable instead of an argv index.
#### `NAPI_UTF8_MALLOC(name, var)`
Same as `NAPI_ARGV_UTF8_MALLOC` but takes a generic `napi_value` variable instead of an argv index.
#### `NAPI_UINT32(name, var)`
Same as `NAPI_ARGV_UINT32` but takes a generic `napi_value` variable instead of an argv index.
#### `NAPI_INT32(name, var)`
Same as `NAPI_ARGV_INT32` but takes a generic `napi_value` variable instead of an argv index.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_FUNCTION(fn)`
Will export a function in the Init method. Expects the env and `exports` to be in scope.
The name of the exported function is the same name as the c function.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_SIZEOF(struct)`
Export the size of a strict. The exported name is `sizeof_{struct-name}`.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_UINT32(name)`
Export a uint32.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_INT32(name)`
Export an int32.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_UTF8(name, len)`
Export a utf8 string. `len` should be the length of the string.
The name of the exported string is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_STRING(name)`
Export a null terminated string.
The name of the exported string is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_SIZEOF(type)`
Exports `sizeof(type)`.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_SIZEOF_STRUCT(structName)`
Exports `sizeof(struct structName)`.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_ALIGNMENTOF(type)`
Exports the byte alignment of `type`.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_ALIGNMENTOF_STRUCT(structName)`
Exports the byte alignment of `struct structName`.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variable.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_OFFSETOF(type, name)`
Exports the byte offset of `name` within `type`.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variables.
#### `NAPI_EXPORT_OFFSETOF_STRUCT(structName, name)`
Exports the byte offset of `name` within `struct structName`.
The name of the exported number is the same name as the c variables.
#### `NAPI_FOR_EACH(array, element)`
Iterate over an array. `array` should be a `napi_value` containing a javascript array
and `element` is the variable name an element will be exposed as. Expects the loop body
to be passed after.
``` c
napi_value buffers = argv[0] // first argument is a js array
NAPI_FOR_EACH(buffers, buffer) {
NAPI_BUFFER(cbuf, buffer)
printf("cbuf is now a char * pointer: %s\n", cbuf);
}
```
#### `NAPI_RETURN_UINT32(name)`
Returns a uint32.
#### `NAPI_RETURN_INT32(name)`
Returns an int32.
#### `NAPI_RETURN_UTF8(name, len)`
Return a utf8 string. `len` should be the length of the string.
#### `NAPI_RETURN_STRING(name)`
Return a null terminated string.
#### `NAPI_STATUS_THROWS(call)`
Checks the return status of any `napi_*` function returning a `napi_status` type. This simplifies using a `napi_status` variable and comparing the result with `napi_ok`. It's used internally but can be used stand alone as well.
```c
NAPI_STATUS_THROWS(
napi_create_threadsafe_function(
NULL,
callback,
0,
async_resource_name,
0,
3,
0,
my_finalize,
NULL,
my_callback,
&threadsafe_function
)
);
```
Above example will fail because the first `env` parameter is `NULL` and throw the following error:
```
Error: napi_create_threadsafe_function(NULL, callback, 0, async_resource_name, 0, 3, 0, my_finalize, \
NULL, my_callback, &threadsafe_function) failed!
```
#### `NAPI_UV_THROWS(err, fn)`
Checks if a libuv call fails and if so, throws an error.
``` c
int err;
NAPI_UV_THROWS(err, uv_ip4_addr((char *) &ip, port, &addr))
```
#### `NAPI_MAKE_CALLBACK(env, async_ctx, ctx, func, argc, argv, result)`
Same as `napi_make_callback` except it checks if the JS function throw an exception
and triggers a `process.on('uncaughtException')` if so.
