Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine. Node.js
uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and
efficient. The Node.js package ecosystem, [npm][], is the largest ecosystem of
open source libraries in the world.
The Node.js project is supported by the
[Node.js Foundation ](https://nodejs.org/en/foundation/ ). Contributions,
policies, and releases are managed under an
[open governance model ](./GOVERNANCE.md ).
**This project is bound by a [Code of Conduct][].**
If you need help using or installing Node.js, please use the
[nodejs/help ](https://github.com/nodejs/help ) issue tracker.

## Resources for Newcomers
### Official Resources
* [Website][]
* [Node.js Help][]
* [Contributing to the project][]
* IRC (node core development): [#node-dev on chat.freenode.net][]
### Unofficial Resources
* IRC (general questions): [#node.js on chat.freenode.net][]. Please see
< http: // nodeirc . info /> for more information regarding the `#node.js` IRC
channel.
_Please note that unofficial resources are neither managed by (nor necessarily
endorsed by) the Node.js TSC. Specifically, such resources are not

## Release Types
The Node.js project maintains multiple types of releases:
* **Current**: Released from active development branches of this repository,
versioned by [SemVer ](http://semver.org/ ) and signed by a member of the
[Release Team ](#release-team ).
Code for Current releases is organized in this repository by major version
number. For example: [v4.x ](https://github.com/nodejs/node/tree/v4.x ).
The major version number of Current releases will increment every 6 months
allowing for breaking changes to be introduced. This happens in April and
October every year. Current release lines beginning in October each year have
a maximum support life of 8 months. Current release lines beginning in April
each year will convert to LTS (see below) after 6 months and receive further
support for 30 months.
* **LTS**: Releases that receive Long-term Support, with a focus on stability
and security. Every second Current release line (major version) will become an
LTS line and receive 18 months of _Active LTS_ support and a further 12
months of _Maintenance_ . LTS release lines are given alphabetically
ordered codenames, beginning with v4 Argon. LTS releases are less frequent
and will attempt to maintain consistent major and minor version numbers,
only incrementing patch version numbers. There are no breaking changes or
feature additions, except in some special circumstances.
* **Nightly**: Versions of code in this repository on the current Current
branch, automatically built every 24-hours where changes exist. Use with
caution.
More information can be found in the [LTS README ](https://github.com/nodejs/LTS/ ).
## Download
Binaries, installers, and source tarballs are available at
< https: / / nodejs . org > .
#### Current and LTS Releases
**Current** and **LTS** releases are available at
< https: / / nodejs . org / download / release / > , listed under their version strings.
The [latest ](https://nodejs.org/download/release/latest/ ) directory is an
alias for the latest Current release. The latest LTS release from an LTS
line is available in the form: latest-_codename_. For example:
< https: / / nodejs . org / download / release / latest-argon >
#### Nightly Releases
**Nightly** builds are available at
< https: / / nodejs . org / download / nightly / > , listed under their version
string which includes their date (in UTC time) and the commit SHA at
the HEAD of the release.
#### API Documentation
**API documentation** is available in each release and nightly
directory under _docs_ . < https: // nodejs . org / api /> points to the API
documentation of the latest stable version.
### Verifying Binaries
Current, LTS and Nightly download directories all contain a _SHASUMS256.txt_
file that lists the SHA checksums for each file available for
download.
The _SHASUMS256.txt_ can be downloaded using curl.
```console
$ curl -O https://nodejs.org/dist/vx.y.z/SHASUMS256.txt
```
To check that a downloaded file matches the checksum, run
it through `sha256sum` with a command such as:
```console
$ grep node-vx.y.z.tar.gz SHASUMS256.txt | sha256sum -c -
```
_(Where "node-vx.y.z.tar.gz" is the name of the file you have
downloaded)_
Additionally, Current and LTS releases (not Nightlies) have the GPG
detached signature of SHASUMS256.txt available as SHASUMS256.txt.sig.
You can use `gpg` to verify that SHASUMS256.txt has not been tampered with.
To verify SHASUMS256.txt has not been altered, you will first need to import
all of the GPG keys of individuals authorized to create releases. They are
listed at the bottom of this README under [Release Team ](#release-team ).
Use a command such as this to import the keys:
```console
$ gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys DD8F2338BAE7501E3DD5AC78C273792F7D83545D
```
_(See the bottom of this README for a full script to import active
release keys)_
Next, download the SHASUMS256.txt.sig for the release:
```console
$ curl -O https://nodejs.org/dist/vx.y.z/SHASUMS256.txt.sig
```
After downloading the appropriate SHASUMS256.txt and SHASUMS256.txt.sig files,
you can then use `gpg --verify SHASUMS256.txt.sig SHASUMS256.txt` to verify
that the file has been signed by an authorized member of the Node.js team.
Once verified, use the SHASUMS256.txt file to get the checksum for
the binary verification command above.
## Building Node.js
See [BUILDING.md ](BUILDING.md ) for instructions on how to build
Node.js from source along with a list of officially supported platforms.
## Security
All security bugs in Node.js are taken seriously and should be reported by
emailing security@nodejs.org. This will be delivered to a subset of the project
team who handle security issues. Please don't disclose security bugs
publicly until they have been handled by the security team.
Your email will be acknowledged within 24 hours, and you’ll receive a more
detailed response to your email within 48 hours indicating the next steps in
handling your report.
There are no hard and fast rules to determine if a bug is worth reporting as
a security issue. The general rule is any issue worth reporting
must allow an attacker to compromise the confidentiality, integrity
or availability of the Node.js application or its system for which the attacker
does not already have the capability.
To illustrate the point, here are some examples of past issues and what the
Security Reponse Team thinks of them. When in doubt, however, please do send
us a report nonetheless.
### Public disclosure preferred
- [#14519 ](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/14519 ): _Internal domain
function can be used to cause segfaults_. Causing program termination using
either the public Javascript APIs or the private bindings layer APIs requires
the ability to execute arbitrary Javascript code, which is already the highest
level of privilege possible.
- [#12141 ](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/12141 ): _buffer: zero fill
Buffer(num) by default_. The buffer constructor behaviour was documented,
but found to be prone to [mis-use ](https://snyk.io/blog/exploiting-buffer/ ).
It has since been changed, but despite much debate, was not considered misuse
prone enough to justify fixing in older release lines and breaking our
API stability contract.
### Private disclosure preferred
- [CVE-2016-7099 ](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/september-2016-security-releases/ ):
_Fix invalid wildcard certificate validation check_ . This is a high severity
defect that would allow a malicious TLS server to serve an invalid wildcard
certificate for its hostname and be improperly validated by a Node.js client.
- [#5507 ](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/5507 ): _Fix a defect that makes
the CacheBleed Attack possible_. Many, though not all, OpenSSL vulnerabilities
in the TLS/SSL protocols also effect Node.js.
- [CVE-2016-2216 ](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/february-2016-security-releases/ ):
_Fix defects in HTTP header parsing for requests and responses that can allow
response splitting_. While the impact of this vulnerability is application and
network dependent, it is remotely exploitable in the HTTP protocol.
When in doubt, please do send us a report.
## Current Project Team Members
The Node.js project team comprises a group of core collaborators and a sub-group
that forms the _Technical Steering Committee_ (TSC) which governs the project.
For more information about the governance of the Node.js project, see
[GOVERNANCE.md ](./GOVERNANCE.md ).

build, i18n: improve Intl build, add "--with-intl"
The two main goals of this change are:
- To make it easier to build the Intl option using ICU (particularly,
using a newer ICU than v8/Chromium's version)
- To enable a much smaller ICU build with only English support The goal
here is to get node.js binaries built this way by default so that the
Intl API can be used. Additional data can be added at execution time
(see Readme and wiki)
More details are at https://github.com/joyent/node/pull/7719
In particular, this change adds the "--with-intl=" configure option to
provide more ways of building "Intl":
- "full-icu" picks up an ICU from deps/icu
- "small-icu" is similar, but builds only English
- "system-icu" uses pkg-config to find an installed ICU
- "none" does nothing (no Intl)
For Windows builds, the "full-icu" or "small-icu" options are added to
vcbuild.bat.
Note that the existing "--with-icu-path" option is not removed from
configure, but may not be used alongside the new option.
Wiki changes have already been made on
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installation
and a new page created at
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Intl
(marked as provisional until this change lands.)
Summary of changes:
* README.md : doc updates
* .gitignore : added "deps/icu" as this is the location where ICU is
unpacked to.
* Makefile : added the tools/icu/* files to cpplint, but excluded a
problematic file.
* configure : added the "--with-intl" option mentioned above.
Calculate at config time the list of ICU source files to use and data
packaging options.
* node.gyp : add the new files src/node_i18n.cc/.h as well as ICU
linkage.
* src/node.cc : add call into
node::i18n::InitializeICUDirectory(icu_data_dir) as well as new
--icu-data-dir option and NODE_ICU_DATA env variable to configure ICU
data loading. This loading is only relevant in the "small"
configuration.
* src/node_i18n.cc : new source file for the above Initialize..
function, to setup ICU as needed.
* tools/icu : new directory with some tools needed for this build.
* tools/icu/icu-generic.gyp : new .gyp file that builds ICU in some new
ways, both on unix/mac and windows.
* tools/icu/icu-system.gyp : new .gyp file to build node against a
pkg-config detected ICU.
* tools/icu/icu_small.json : new config file for the "English-only" small
build.
* tools/icu/icutrim.py : new tool for trimming down ICU data. Reads the
above .json file.
* tools/icu/iculslocs.cc : new tool for repairing ICU data manifests
after trim operation.
* tools/icu/no-op.cc : dummy file to force .gyp into using a C++ linker.
* vcbuild.bat : added small-icu and full-icu options, to call into
configure.
* Fixed toolset dependencies, see
https://github.com/joyent/node/pull/7719#issuecomment-54641687
Note that because of a bug in gyp {CC,CXX}_host must also be set.
Otherwise gcc/g++ will be used by default for part of the build.
