Extern type definitions for Node.JS. Haxe 3.4 or newer is required.

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.

1. Install hxnodejs with haxelib install hxnodejs (released version) or haxelib git hxnodejs https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/hxnodejs (latest from GitHub).

2. 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");
       }
   }

3. Compile it with with haxe -lib hxnodejs -main Main -js main.js (optionally add -D js-es=6 for cleaner JavaScript output, since node.js is ES6-compliant)

4. Look at generated main.js:

   // Generated by Haxe 4.0.0-rc.2+63144f6db
   (function ($global) { "use strict";
   class Main {
       static 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");
       }
   }
   var js_node_Net = require("net");
   Main.main();
   })({});
