Node.js Interop for Dart

This package provides Node.js interoperability for Dart.

Requirements

• The latest Dart SDK and Pub versions.
• The latest Node.js and npm versions.

If you plan to play with the sources, you will also need the latest Grinder version.

Installing via Pub

1. Depend on it

Add this to your package's pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  nodejs_interop: *

2. Install it

Install this package and its dependencies from a command prompt:

$ pub get

3. Import it

Now in your Dart code, you can use:

// Dart abstractions for I/O support.
import 'package:nodejs_interop/io.dart';

// JavaScript and Node.js interoperability.
import 'package:nodejs_interop/js.dart' as js;
import 'package:nodejs_interop/node.dart' as node;

Usage

• I/O support: file, socket, HTTP, and other I/O support for Node.js applications.
• JavaScript: support for interoperating with JavaScript APIs.
• Node.js: support for interoperating with Node.js APIs.
• npm packages: support for interoperating with a predefined set of npm packages.
• Pub transformer: automate the addition of a Node.js preamble to build assets.

Examples

The following projects use this library to provide cross-platform features:

• Coveralls for Dart: send LCOV and Clover coverage reports to the Coveralls service.
• Reverse-Proxy.dart: simple reverse proxy server supporting WebSockets.
• Where.dart: find the instances of an executable in the system path.

Unit tests

In order to run the tests, you must install the Node.js test dependencies by running the following command:

$ npm install

Then, you can launch the test runner from the command prompt:

$ pub run test
