revolt.node: Node.js bindings for the Revolt software

This project was bootstrapped by create-neon.

Building revolt.node

Building revolt.node requires a supported version of Node and Rust.

To run the build, run:

$ npm run build

This command uses the @neon-rs/cli utility to assemble the binary Node addon from the output of cargo.

Exploring revolt.node

After building revolt.node, you can explore its exports at the Node console:

$ npm i
$ npm run build
$ node
> require('.').hello()
'hello node'

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

npm install

Installs the project, including running npm run build.

npm run build

Builds the Node addon (index.node) from source, generating a release build with cargo --release.

Additional cargo build arguments may be passed to npm run build and similar commands. For example, to enable a cargo feature:

npm run build -- --feature=beetle

npm run debug

Similar to npm run build but generates a debug build with cargo.

npm run cross

Similar to npm run build but uses cross-rs to cross-compile for another platform. Use the CARGO_BUILD_TARGET environment variable to select the build target.

npm test

Runs the unit tests by calling cargo test. You can learn more about adding tests to your Rust code from the Rust book.
