• Updates uWS from v18.5.0 to v18.10.0.
• Swaps from Integer to Number for communicating offset in streams, necessary for streams larger than 2GB.
• Adds an experimental key/value store for efficient Worker Thread intercommunication.

See main repo for list of changes.

SSL fix

Apparently SSL support was entirely non-functional in v18.2.0, as we had a minor unfixed compilation error slip through.

• Update to uWS v18.5.0
• Update docs

Seamless PROXY Protocol v2

The HTTP parser will automatically pick up on the presence of such a proxy (HAProxy or the like); there's no runtime configuration needed.

Adds functions

• getRemoteAddressAsText()
• getProxiedRemoteAddress()
• getProxiedRemoteAddressAsText()

Upgrade events

• Update to uWS v18.0.0; adding upgrade event:
  • Removes req from open event (breaking change)
  • Pass data from upgrade event to open event by calling res.upgrade with the user data object
• Adds Upgrade and UpgradeAsync examples showing these features.
• Updates old examples for compatibility.
• µWebSockets and µWebSockets.js now share the same major version number.

Update uWS to v0.17.5

• Brings latest fixes in uWS
• Adds backpressure example

Node.js 14

• Update uWS to v0.17.4
• Support for Node.js 10, 11, 12, 13 & 14

Memory constrained compressors

• Update uWS to v0.17.3
• Adds memory constrained compressors
• Adds ping/pong handlers

EXPERIMENTAL_FASTCALL

Adds environment variable to avoid speeding tickets, your mileage may vary:

EXPERIMENTAL_FASTCALL=1 node app.js

Enable to dynamically revert to (somewhat broken) behavior prior to v17.1.0.

Do not use unless you can prove that you really have to; most users will not trigger the case where it would make a significant difference. But I'm not your mother and you may do whatever you want to 😉

Speeding ticket

• Moving from vanilla V8 function calls to Node.js wrappers results in up to 25% performance loss, but is the only true solution to the various issues reported regarding process.nextTick and debugging.
• Updates uWS to v0.17.1
• Adds WebSocket.unsubscribeAll, WebSocket.ping

• Updates uWS to v0.17.0
• Adds WebSocket.cork

See uWebSockets release for more info.

WolfSSL, worker threads & cork

• This change adds experimental WolfSSL support as alternative to Node.js's built-in OpenSSL. Contact me if you're interested, you'll need a WolfSSL license and a custom build.
• It is now possible to scale multiple servers using Node.js worker threads, not only cluster. Example included.
• res.experimental_cork has been renamed to cork and is now documented.
• req.setYield was added and documented.

• Adds Node.js 13 support

Pub/sub fixes

• Adds App.publish for publishing to all websockets belonging to app
• Fixes (crash) bug when publishing to topic with no subscribers

Pub/sub & fuzzing

• Updated to uWebSockets v0.16.0
  • New efficient MQTT-like pub/sub base support, optimized for latency and performance
  • Project is now continuously fuzzed by Google OSS-Fuzz under three sanitizers with a coverage of 80-90%
