# revolt.node
|
||||
|
||||
**revolt.node:** Node.js bindings for the Revolt software
|
||||
|
||||
This project was bootstrapped by [create-neon](https://www.npmjs.com/package/create-neon).
|
||||
|
||||
## Building revolt.node
|
||||
|
||||
Building revolt.node requires a [supported version of Node and Rust](https://github.com/neon-bindings/neon#platform-support).
|
||||
|
||||
To run the build, run:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
$ npm run build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This command uses the [@neon-rs/cli](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@neon-rs/cli) utility to assemble the binary Node addon from the output of `cargo`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Exploring revolt.node
|
||||
|
||||
After building revolt.node, you can explore its exports at the Node console:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
$ npm i
|
||||
$ npm run build
|
||||
$ node
|
||||
> require('.').hello()
|
||||
'hello node'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Available Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
In the project directory, you can run:
|
||||
|
||||
#### `npm install`
|
||||
|
||||
Installs the project, including running `npm run build`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### `npm run build`
|
||||
|
||||
Builds the Node addon (`index.node`) from source, generating a release build with `cargo --release`.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional [`cargo build`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-build.html) arguments may be passed to `npm run build` and similar commands. For example, to enable a [cargo feature](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
npm run build -- --feature=beetle
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### `npm run debug`
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to `npm run build` but generates a debug build with `cargo`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### `npm run cross`
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to `npm run build` but uses [cross-rs](https://github.com/cross-rs/cross) to cross-compile for another platform. Use the [`CARGO_BUILD_TARGET`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html#buildtarget) environment variable to select the build target.
|
||||
|
||||
#### `npm test`
|
||||
|
||||
Runs the unit tests by calling `cargo test`. You can learn more about [adding tests to your Rust code](https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch11-01-writing-tests.html) from the [Rust book](https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/).
