Extern type definitions for Node.JS version 4.0.0 and Haxe 3.2+.
Haxe-generated API documentation is available at http://haxefoundation.github.io/hxnodejs/js/Node.html.
Original node.js documentation can be found at http://nodejs.org/api/index.html.
- Full node.js API with documentation.
- Strict typing for everything, fully leveraging Haxe type system.
- Optionally typed event listeners.
- Automatic insert of "require" statements for used modules.
- Clean output.
-
Install hxnodejs with
haxelib install hxnodejs
(released version) orhaxelib git hxnodejs https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/hxnodejs
(latest from github). -
Write some code and save to
Main.hx
:class Main { static function main() { var server = js.node.Net.createServer(function(socket) { socket.write("Echo server\n\n"); socket.pipe(socket); }); server.listen(1337, "127.0.0.1"); } }
-
Compile it with with
haxe -lib hxnodejs -main Main -js main.js
(optionally add-D js-es5
for cleaner JavaScript output, since node.js is ES5-compilant) -
Look at generated
main.js
:(function () { "use strict"; var Main = function() { }; Main.main = function() { var server = js_node_Net.createServer(function(socket) { socket.write("Echo server\n\n"); socket.pipe(socket); }); server.listen(1337,"127.0.0.1"); }; var js_node_Net = require("net"); Main.main(); })();

You're awesome! (See more examples)
This library is considered complete, but it's fairly new, so testing and contributions are welcome. See current issues and extern guidelines.
