# Deprecated APIs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Node.js may deprecate APIs when either: (a) use of the API is considered to be
|
|
|
|
|
unsafe, (b) an improved alternative API has been made available, or (c)
|
|
|
|
|
breaking changes to the API are expected in a future major release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Node.js utilizes three kinds of Deprecations:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Documentation-only
|
|
|
|
|
* Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
* End-of-Life
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Documentation-only deprecation is one that is expressed only within the
|
|
|
|
|
Node.js API docs. These generate no side-effects while running Node.js.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Runtime deprecation will, by default, generate a process warning that will
|
|
|
|
|
be printed to `stderr` the first time the deprecated API is used. When the
|
|
|
|
|
`--throw-deprecation` command-line flag is used, a Runtime deprecation will
|
|
|
|
|
cause an error to be thrown.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An End-of-Life deprecation is used to identify code that either has been
|
|
|
|
|
removed or will soon be removed from Node.js.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Un-deprecation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From time-to-time the deprecation of an API may be reversed. Such action may
|
|
|
|
|
happen in either a semver-minor or semver-major release. In such situations,
|
|
|
|
|
this document will be updated with information relevant to the decision.
|
|
|
|
|
*However, the deprecation identifier will not be modified*.
|

### DEP0001: http.OutgoingMessage.prototype.flush

|
|
|
|
|
Type: Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `OutgoingMessage.prototype.flush()` method is deprecated. Use
|
|
|
|
|
`OutgoingMessage.prototype.flushHeaders()` instead.
|
|
|

### DEP0002: require('\_linklist')
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `_linklist` module is deprecated. Please use a userland alternative.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a id="DEP0003"></a>
|
|
|
|
|
### DEP0003: \_writableState.buffer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `_writableState.buffer` property is deprecated. Use the
|
|
|
|
|
`_writableState.getBuffer()` method instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a id="DEP0004"></a>
|
|
|
|
|
### DEP0004: CryptoStream.prototype.readyState
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: Documentation-only
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `CryptoStream.prototype.readyState` property is deprecated and should not
|
|
|
|
|
be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a id="DEP0005"></a>
|
|
|
|
|
### DEP0005: Buffer() constructor
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: Documentation-only
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `Buffer()` function and `new Buffer()` constructor are deprecated due to
|
|
|
|
|
API usability issues that can potentially lead to accidental security issues.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As an alternative, use of the following methods of constructing `Buffer` objects
|
|
|
|
|
is strongly recommended:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [`Buffer.alloc(size[, fill[, encoding]])`][alloc] - Create a `Buffer` with
|
|
|
|
|
*initialized* memory.
|
|
|
|
|
* [`Buffer.allocUnsafe(size)`][alloc_unsafe_size] - Create a `Buffer` with *uninitialized*
|
|
|
|
|
memory.
|
|
|
|
|
* [`Buffer.allocUnsafeSlow(size)`][] - Create a `Buffer` with *uninitialized*
|
|
|
|
|
memory.
|
|
|
|
|
* [`Buffer.from(array)`][] - Create a `Buffer` with a copy of `array`
|
|
|
|
|
* [`Buffer.from(arrayBuffer[, byteOffset[, length]])`][from_arraybuffer] - Create a `Buffer`
|
|
|
|
|
that wraps the given `arrayBuffer`.
|
|
|
|
|
* [`Buffer.from(buffer)`][] - Create a `Buffer` that copies `buffer`.
|
|
|
|
|
* [`Buffer.from(string[, encoding])`][from_string_encoding] - Create a `Buffer` that copies
|
|
|
|
|
`string`.

|
<a id="DEP0006"></a>
|
|
|
|
|
### DEP0006: child\_process options.customFds
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Within the [`child_process`][] module's `spawn()`, `fork()`, and `exec()`
|
|
|
|
|
methods, the `options.customFds` option is deprecated. The `options.stdio`
|
|
|
|
|
option should be used instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a id="DEP0007"></a>
|
2017-06-15 17:22:07 +02:00
|
|
|
### DEP0007: Replace cluster worker.suicide with worker.exitedAfterDisconnect
|
2016-12-04 21:47:01 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2017-06-15 17:22:07 +02:00
|
|
|
Type: End-of-Life
|
2016-12-04 21:47:01 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2017-06-15 17:22:07 +02:00
|
|
|
In an earlier version of the Node.js `cluster`, a boolean property with the name
|
|
|
|
|
`suicide` was added to the `Worker` object. The intent of this property was to
|
|
|
|
|
provide an indication of how and why the `Worker` instance exited. In Node.js
|
|
|
|
|
6.0.0, the old property was deprecated and replaced with a new
|
2017-06-28 20:55:48 +02:00
|
|
|
[`worker.exitedAfterDisconnect`][] property. The old property name did not
|
2017-06-15 17:22:07 +02:00
|
|
|
precisely describe the actual semantics and was unnecessarily emotion-laden.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a id="DEP0008"></a>
|
|
|
|
|
### DEP0008: require('constants')
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: Documentation-only
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `constants` module has been deprecated. When requiring access to constants
|
|
|
|
|
relevant to specific Node.js builtin modules, developers should instead refer
|
|
|
|
|
to the `constants` property exposed by the relevant module. For instance,
|
|
|
|
|
`require('fs').constants` and `require('os').constants`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<a id="DEP0009"></a>
|
|
|
|
|
### DEP0009: crypto.pbkdf2 without digest
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-02-10 23:48:39 +01:00
|
|
|
Type: End-of-life

2016-12-04 21:47:01 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2017-02-10 23:48:39 +01:00
|
|
|
Use of the [`crypto.pbkdf2()`][] API without specifying a digest was deprecated
|
|
|
|
|
in Node.js 6.0 because the method defaulted to using the non-recommendend
|
|
|
|
|
`'SHA1'` digest. Previously, a deprecation warning was printed. Starting in
|
|
|
|
|
Node.js 8.0.0, calling `crypto.pbkdf2()` or `crypto.pbkdf2Sync()` with an
|
|
|
|
|
undefined `digest` will throw a `TypeError`.

Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections

Accessing several internal, undocumented properties of `net.Server` instances
|
|
|
|
|
with inappropriate names has been deprecated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*Note*: As the original API was undocumented and not generally useful for
|
|
|
|
|
non-internal code, no replacement API is provided.

`tls.parseCertString()` is a trivial parsing helper that was made public by
|
|
|
|
|
mistake. This function can usually be replaced with:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
|
|
|
const querystring = require('querystring');
|
|
|
|
|
querystring.parse(str, '\n', '=');
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*Note*: This function is not completely equivalent to `querystring.parse()`. One
|
2017-10-01 04:03:06 +02:00
|
|
|
difference is that `querystring.parse()` does url decoding:
|
2017-08-10 05:16:44 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
|
|
> querystring.parse('%E5%A5%BD=1', '\n', '=');
|
|
|
|
|
{ '好': '1' }
|
|
|
|
|
> tls.parseCertString('%E5%A5%BD=1');
|
|
|
|
|
{ '%E5%A5%BD': '1' }

|
|

function for [`util.inspect()`][] is deprecated. Use [`util.inspect.custom`][]

The internal `path._makeLong()` was not intended for public use. However,

userland modules have found it useful. The internal API has been deprecated

and replaced with an identical, public `path.toNamespacedPath()` method.
