[Buildroot] [v4 1/4] package/nodejs: Add node.js v0.12.5 and set as the default version

[Martin Bark]

The version of the V8 JavaScript engine used by node.js v0.12.5 requires
at least an ARMv6 architecture with VFPv2.  For this reason v0.10.39
remains the default for ARMv5 targets, all other targets now default to
v0.12.5.

+Subject: [PATCH 3/4] Use a python variable instead of hardcoding Python
+
+The nodejs build system uses python in a number of locations. However,
+there are some locations where it hardcodes 'python' as the Python
+interpreter. However, this causes problems when we need to use python2
+instead of just python.
+
+This patch fixes that by using the python variable already in place in
+the nodejs build system.

[Buildroot] [v4 3/4] package/nodejs: Fixes for node-pre-gyp

[Martin Bark]

Many packages use node-pre-gyp as a way of deploying precompiled binary
dependencies with fall back to compilation for other targets.  Currently
installing node modules that use node-pre-gyp can fail to use the correct
binary for the target.  This patch fixes this issue by correctly
configuring node-pre-gyp.

Firstly, node-gyp uses the option --arch to determine its target
architecture (which is already set correctly), however, node-pre-gyp uses
--target-arch.  Without this set node.js packages that uses node-pre-gyp
will pick the wrong target architecture.

Secondly, the use of precompiled binary packages is not desirable due to
potential security and licensing issues.  To solve this we use the
--build-from-source option to force node-pre-gyp to always build the C++
code.

This patch passes npm_config_target_arch and npm_config_build_from_source
to npm which causes --target-arch and --build-from-source to be passed to
node-pre-gyp.

I have tested this using the node.js package serialport which now
successfully builds and runs.

[Buildroot] [v4 4/4] package/nodejs: Define NPM command for other packages to use

[Martin Bark]

Other nodejs-related packages will need to call npm with the same set of
arguments as is currently used by the nodejs package itself.

To avoid duplicating this code, set the NPM variable so those packages can
re-use it.

Acked-by: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>

Note: currently, this is only used in the nodejs package itself. I
plan on sending new nodejs-related packages that will use this, like
a pm2 (https://github.com/Unitech/pm2) package which I have tested
successfully using this $(NPM).

I'm not much of a nodejs guy, so I'd like some feedback from other
nodejs users. J?rg, maybe?

Otherwise, the build-form-source chunk looks way better, thanks! :-)

I'm quite a bit busy now and it is beyond me. Perhaps I can give

All four patches applied, thanks!

For reference, I've tested by adding the "learnyournode" module, which
thanks to your patch 2/4 now installs the command in /usr/bin, which
allows to run it transparently.

Thanks to Yann for the review/comments!

Martin, All,

I'm trying to bump to node.js 4.1.2 and was wondering if that limitation
still exists in that version.

I was able to sucessfully build for an arm926t (armv5) with a VFPv2 FPU.

So:
  - is the failure a runtime failure or a build time one?
  - is armv6 really required, or can we just require VFPv2?

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

Yes I've been thinking about this too.  As far as i can tell v0.10.x
was the last release to support ARMv5 due to changes in the V8
JavaScript engine.  One thing i have been wondering is if we need to
support multiple versions of node.js or just 4.1.x?  The node.js LTS
working group here https://github.com/nodejs/LTS/ seems to say that
0.10.x and 0.12.x are still being maintained but supporting only the
latest version would be simpler.  What do you think?

From memory it only show up at runtime as an illegal instruction.  I
think i tested using qemu_arm_versatile_defconfig and a simple test
like

    node -e 'console.log("hello world");'

I went off this announcement for V8
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/v8-users/aSOFbaAQvMk where it
states the minimum is now ARMv6 with VFPv2.  It was the no-VFPv2 port
that was removed but i don't know if it also requires any ARMv6 or
higher instructions.  The node.js configure script only seems to check
form ARMv6 or ARMv7, see
https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/configure#L616.  So i
assume node.js and V8 need a minimum ARMv6 instruction set.

Thanks

Martin

We currently have kept nodejs 0.10.x for backward compatibility with
armv5 or non-VFP CPUs, in parallel with 0.12.x for armv6+ with VFP CPUs.

OK, so let's do as upstream wants it:

  - armv6 or above ir required
  - VFPv2 or above is required

Thanks! :-)

BTW, you can see my WIP patch there (moving target, the branch may get
rebased from time to time; handle with care! ;-) ):
