Other functions determine whether a particular Node-API version can be built and can issue console warnings for unsupported Node-API versions. - -Unlike the modules this code is designed to facilitate building, this module is written entirely in JavaScript. - -## Quick start - -```bash -npm install napi-build-utils -``` - -The module exports a set of functions documented [here](./index.md). For example: - -```javascript -var napiBuildUtils = require('napi-build-utils'); -var napiVersion = napiBuildUtils.getNapiVersion(); // Node-API version supported by Node, or undefined. -``` - -## Declaring supported Node-API versions - -Native modules that are designed to work with [Node-API](https://nodejs.org/api/n-api.html#n_api_n_api) must explicitly declare the Node-API version(s) against which they are coded to build. This is accomplished by including a `binary.napi_versions` property in the module's `package.json` file. For example: - -```json -"binary": { - "napi_versions": [2,3] -} -``` - -In the absence of a need to compile against a specific Node-API version, the value `3` is a good choice as this is the Node-API version that was supported when Node-API left experimental status. - -Modules that are built against a specific Node-API version will continue to operate indefinitely, even as later versions of Node-API are introduced. - -## History - -**v2.0.0** This version was introduced to address a limitation when the Node-API version reached `10` in NodeJS `v23.6.0`. There was no change in the API, but a SemVer bump to `2.0.0` was made out of an abundance of caution. - -## Support - -If you run into problems or limitations, please file an issue and we'll take a look. Pull requests are also welcome. |
