javascriptnode.jscapnproto

Anybody used capnproto js (capnp-js) library?

Is there anybody using (or plan to use) capnp-js-plugin and capnp-js modules for nodejs? I cloned these repos and ran the tests, but they fail. Also when I just install capnp-js (via npm), the generated js code has syntax errors even for a simple schema:

@0xec2f2fe5874ad874;

using Uid=Int32;

struct User {
    id @0 :Uid;
    name @1 :Text;
}

Thanks

Solution

  • To anybody trying to use these modules, I would suggest to wait a bit, and avoid them for the moment. I have opened an issue (https://github.com/capnp-js/serialization/issues/17) and I got a reply from the owner of the module that I should better wait for the next major release, which will be a completely rewritten version.
