      "desc": "<p>N-API (pronounced N as in the letter, followed by API)\nis an API for building native Addons. It is independent from\nthe underlying JavaScript runtime (ex V8) and is maintained as part of\nNode.js itself. This API will be Application Binary Interface (ABI) stable\nacross versions of Node.js. It is intended to insulate Addons from\nchanges in the underlying JavaScript engine and allow modules\ncompiled for one version to run on later versions of Node.js without\nrecompilation.</p>\n<p>Addons are built/packaged with the same approach/tools\noutlined in the section titled <a href=\"addons.html\">C++ Addons</a>.\nThe only difference is the set of APIs that are used by the native code.\nInstead of using the V8 or <a href=\"https://github.com/nodejs/nan\">Native Abstractions for Node.js</a> APIs,\nthe functions available in the N-API are used.</p>\n<p>APIs exposed by N-API are generally used to create and manipulate\nJavaScript values. Concepts and operations generally map to ideas specified\nin the ECMA262 Language Specification. The APIs have the following\nproperties:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>All N-API calls return a status code of type <code>napi_status</code>. This\nstatus indicates whether the API call succeeded or failed.</li>\n<li>The API&#39;s return value is passed via an out parameter.</li>\n<li>All JavaScript values are abstracted behind an opaque type named\n<code>napi_value</code>.</li>\n<li>In case of an error status code, additional information can be obtained\nusing <code>napi_get_last_error_info</code>. More information can be found in the error\nhandling section <a href=\"#n_api_error_handling\">Error Handling</a>.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The documentation for N-API is structured as follows:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_basic_n_api_data_types\">Basic N-API Data Types</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_error_handling\">Error Handling</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_object_lifetime_management\">Object Lifetime Management</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_module_registration\">Module Registration</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_working_with_javascript_values\">Working with JavaScript Values</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_working_with_javascript_values_abstract_operations\">Working with JavaScript Values - Abstract Operations</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_working_with_javascript_properties\">Working with JavaScript Properties</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_working_with_javascript_functions\">Working with JavaScript Functions</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_object_wrap\">Object Wrap</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_simple_asynchronous_operations\">Simple Asynchronous Operations</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_custom_asynchronous_operations\">Custom Asynchronous Operations</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_promises\">Promises</a></li>\n<li><a href=\"#n_api_script_execution\">Script Execution</a></li>\n</ul>\n<p>The N-API is a C API that ensures ABI stability across Node.js versions\nand different compiler levels. However, we also understand that a C++\nAPI can be easier to use in many cases. To support these cases we expect\nthere to be one or more C++ wrapper modules that provide an inlineable C++\nAPI. Binaries built with these wrapper modules will depend on the symbols\nfor the N-API C based functions exported by Node.js. These wrappers are not\npart of N-API, nor will they be maintained as part of Node.js. One such\nexample is: <a href=\"https://github.com/nodejs/node-api\">node-api</a>.</p>\n<p>In order to use the N-API functions, include the file\n<a href=\"https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/src/node_api.h\">node_api.h</a>\nwhich is located in the src directory in the node development tree:</p>\n<pre><code class=\"lang-C\">#include &lt;node_api.h&gt;\n</code></pre>\n",

The methods available to open/close scopes are\n<a href=\"#n_api_napi_open_handle_scope\"><code>napi_open_handle_scope</code></a> and <a href=\"#n_api_napi_close_handle_scope\"><code>napi_close_handle_scope</code></a>.</p>\n<p>N-API only supports a single nested hierarchy of scopes. There is only one\nactive scope at any time, and all new handles will be associated with that\nscope while it is active. Scopes must be closed in the reverse order from\nwhich they are opened. In addition, all scopes created within a native method\nmust be closed before returning from that method.</p>\n<p>Taking the earlier example, adding calls to <a href=\"#n_api_napi_open_handle_scope\"><code>napi_open_handle_scope</code></a> and\n<a href=\"#n_api_napi_close_handle_scope\"><code>napi_close_handle_scope</code></a> would ensure that at most a single handle\nis valid throughout the execution of the loop:</p>\n<pre><code class=\"lang-C\">for (int i = 0; i &lt; 1000000; i++) {\n  napi_handle_scope scope;\n  napi_status status = napi_open_handle_scope(env, &amp;scope);\n  if (status != napi_ok) {\n    break;\n  }\n  napi_value result;\n  status = napi_get_element(e, object, i, &amp;result);\n  if (status != napi_ok) {\n    break;\n  }\n  // do something with element\n  status = napi_close_handle_scope(env, scope);\n  if (status != napi_ok) {\n    break;\n  }\n}\n</code></pre>\n<p>When nesting scopes, there are cases where a handle from an\ninner scope needs to live beyond the lifespan of that scope. N-API supports an\n&#39;escapable scope&#39; in order to support this case. An escapable scope\nallows one handle to be &#39;promoted&#39; so that it &#39;escapes&#39; the\ncurrent scope and the lifespan of the handle changes from the current\nscope to that of the outer scope.</p>\n<p>The methods available to open/close escapable scopes are\n<a href=\"#n_api_napi_open_escapable_handle_scope\"><code>napi_open_escapable_handle_scope</code></a> and \n<a href=\"#n_api_napi_close_escapable_handle_scope\"><code>napi_close_escapable_handle_scope</code></a>.</p>\n<p>The request to promote a handle is made through <a href=\"#n_api_napi_escape_handle\"><code>napi_escape_handle</code></a> which\ncan only be called once.</p>\n",

For\nexample, to create a constructor and later use that constructor\nin a request to creates instances, it must be possible to reference\nthe constructor object across many different instance creation requests. This\nwould not be possible with a normal handle returned as a <code>napi_value</code> as\ndescribed in the earlier section.

The count determines if the reference will keep\nthe corresponding object live. References with a count of 0 do not\nprevent the object from being collected and are often called &#39;weak&#39;\nreferences.

N-API modules cannot modify the <code>module</code> object but can\nspecify anything as the <code>exports</code> property of the module.</p>\n<p>For example, to add the method <code>hello</code> as a function so that it can be called\nas a method provided by the addon:</p>\n<pre><code class=\"lang-C\">napi_value Init(napi_env env, napi_value exports) {\n  napi_status status;\n  napi_property_descriptor desc =\n    {&quot;hello&quot;, Method, 0, 0, 0, napi_default, 0};\n  if (status != napi_ok) return NULL;\n  status = napi_define_properties(env, exports, 1, &amp;desc);\n  if (status != napi_ok) return NULL;\n  return exports;\n}\n</code></pre>\n<p>For example, to set a function to be returned by the <code>require()</code> for the addon:</p>\n<pre><code class=\"lang-C\">napi_value Init(napi_env env, napi_value exports) {\n  napi_value method;\n  napi_status status;\n  status = napi_create_function(env, &quot;exports&quot;, NAPI_AUTO_LENGTH, Method, NULL, &amp;method);\n  if (status != napi_ok) return NULL;\n  return method;\n}\n</code></pre>\n<p>For example, to define a class so that new instances can be created\n(often used with <a href=\"#n_api_object_wrap\">Object Wrap</a>):</p>\n<pre><code class=\"lang-C\">// NOTE: partial example, not all referenced code is included\nnapi_value Init(napi_env env, napi_value exports) {\n  napi_status status;\n  napi_property_descriptor properties[] = {\n    { &quot;value&quot;, NULL, GetValue, SetValue, 0, napi_default, 0 },\n    DECLARE_NAPI_METHOD(&quot;plusOne&quot;, PlusOne),\n    DECLARE_NAPI_METHOD(&quot;multiply&quot;, Multiply),\n  };\n\n  napi_value cons;\n  status =\n      napi_define_class(env, &quot;MyObject&quot;, New, NULL, 3, properties, &amp;cons);\n  if (status != napi_ok) return NULL;\n\n  status = napi_create_reference(env, cons, 1, &amp;constructor);\n  if (status != napi_ok) return NULL;\n\n  status = napi_set_named_property(env, exports, &quot;MyObject&quot;, cons);\n  if (status != napi_ok) return NULL;\n\n  return exports;\n}\n</code></pre>\n<p>For more details on setting properties on objects, see the section on\n<a href=\"#n_api_working_with_javascript_properties\">Working with JavaScript Properties</a>.</p>\n<p>For more details on building addon modules in general, refer to the existing API</p>\n",
