I'm relatively new to node.js and I have a question about compiling node.js with additional native module. Is there a way to integrate an addon to node.js so that it is ready for use after compile?
node.js source code is here <https://github.com/joyent/node>. Some built-in libraries are located in deps/ There is a tutorial <https://nodejs.org/api/addons.html> for compiling C++ addon as a module of node.js. After compilation of the module a file "myaddon.node" is generated that can be used with require in node.js application. Is there a way to make the module built-in? I mean I can just compile it together with node.js source code and then deploy to a target machine. So that I can just call var myaddon = require("myaddon"); without having to run npm install. There are natives modules such as zlib, http, fs that are integrated into node.js. I found one article <http://joseoncode.com/2012/04/10/writing-your-first-native-module-for-node-dot-js-on-windows/> where a native module is built for node.js on Windows using Visual Studio. Is there a similar way to build node.js with your own module on Linux? -- Job board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ New group rules: https://gist.github.com/othiym23/9886289#file-moderation-policy-md Old group rules: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
