Previous behaviour was to drop to an openssl prompt
("Enter PEM pass phrase:") when supplying a private key with a
passphrase. This change adds a fourth, optional, paramter that
will be used as the passphrase.
To include this parameter in a backwards compatible way it was
necessary to expose the previously undocumented (and unexposed)
feature of being able to explitly setting the output encoding.
- fixed some incomprehensible wording ("event assigned to..."?)
- removed undocumented and unnecessary process properties from example
- corrected the docs on the default for the exec setting
- described when workers are removed from cluster.workers
- described addressType, which was documented as existing, but not what
values it might have
- spell out more clearly the limitations of setupMaster
- describe disconnect in sufficient detail that why a child does or does
not exit can be understood
- clarify which cluster functions and events are available on process or
just on the worker, as well as which are not available in children,
- don't describe events as the same, when they have receive different
arguments
- fix misleading disconnect example: since disconnect already calls
close on all servers, doing it again in the example is a no-op, not
the "force close" it was claimed to be
- document the error event, not catching it will kill your node
- describe suicide better, it is important, and a bit unintuitive
(process.exit() is not suicide?)
- use worker consistently throughout, instead of child.
- Make explicit that .disconnected is set before the disconnect event,
and it is not allowed to send messages after calling .disconnect(),
even while waiting for a delayed disconect event.
- Remove obsolete claim that explicit exit is required
- Describe silent: in the options for fork()
- Describe .connected as the property it is, not just as an aside in
the disconnect() method
A follow-up commit will save the domain name on the request object but
we can't call that property 'domain' because that gets intercepted by
src/node.cc and lib/domain.js to implement the node.js feature of the
same name.
To avoid confusion, rename all variables called 'domain' to 'hostname'.
Add a short explanation of what the load average is and why it's
unavailable on Windows.
Also sneak in a fix for a typo that I introduced in commit 56c5806.
* Extend examples to show how to handle non-constructor invocation in
constructor callback functions.
* Fix up examples to initialize member variables at object construction.
* Fix up a few naming inconsistencies.
Fixes#5701.
Apparently Joyent decommissioned joyeur.com but at least they saved the
contents of the blog. Update the links in the README and the nodejs.org
blog posts.
Hat tip to Eugen Pirogoff (@eugenpirogoff) for pointing it out.
Fixes#6224.
Since it is Unix tradition to use exit code 1 for general-purpose script
bail-out, and the way of doing that in Node is to throw an exception and
not catch it, it makes the most sense to exit with 1 when an exception
goes uncaught.
Move the `Invalid Argument` exit to 9, so that it's something specific,
and clear that it's a node internal error.
Also, document the exit codes that we use.
- The caveats no longer apply.
- Document options arguments, including `displayErrors` and the
different things it means in each place.
- Re-did examples to be more on point, e.g. `runInContext` example
runs multiple scripts in the same context.
- Documented how `vm.createContext`s meaning has substantially changed,
and is now more of a "contextifier" than a "creator."
- Reordered vm functions to be readable in order; the concept of
contextifying needs to come before `runInContext` and
`runInNewContext`.
- Documented new `vm.isContext`.
- Documented the `vm.Script` constructor, instead of `createScript`,
since factory methods are silly and we wanted to document the class's
methods anyway.
- Documented `script.runInContext`.
- Change stability to stable, if I may be so bold.
