Async iterator usage?

zamnuts · 2020-03-03T05:35:40Z

As part of TS 3.7 upgrade: optional chaining, nullish coalescing

http2 now supports ORIGIN frames to enable cross-origin connection reuse, do the GCP servers-side APIs support this optimization?

And for a list of new things, relevant breaking changes or things to watch out for as part of any node 8.x -> 10.x uplift as it relates to googleapis node.js code:

assert interface changes (may inadvertently fail test cases):
- assert.fail only has 1 arg: nodejs/node@70dcacd710
- assert.ifError only allows undefined and null, previously truthy was allowed: nodejs/node@e65a6e81ef
- use native assert.rejects and assert.doesNotReject: nodejs/node@599337f43e
net now does an explicit close after end, if workarounds were implemented, this will reveal potential race conditions under load: nodejs/node@9b7a6914a7
http2 streams fixed the destroy/end bug: stream: fix end-of-stream for HTTP/2 nodejs/node#24926
streams:
- refactor to use stream.pipeline where/if applicable
- if using pause mode, watch for workarounds related to implicit repeat _read calls when using resume and read, this memory bug has been fixed: stream: do not unconditionally call _read() on resume() nodejs/node#26965
if a promise settles multiple times, warns will be present in this case: process: add multipleResolves event nodejs/node#22218

Are we using matrix builds against 8.x and 10.x at the same time? If so, most of this stuff should've already been noticed.

bcoe · 2020-03-03T18:02:41Z

@zamnuts we have had Node 10 in the build matrix for close to a year I think, and I'd bet over 50% of our users are already on Node 10 👍

With regards to improvements, like having optional chaining at our disposal, I think we should use these language features going forward to cleanup our codebases, but a large sweeping refactor shouldn't be part of dropping Node 8 from the testing matrix.

Async iterator usage?

@feywind, @xiaozhenliu-gg5 came up with a design document which should allow us to add async iterators to Node 10, without it being a breaking change, as soon as 8 is dropped.

So, we're going to use async iterators, which I'm very excited about, but we don't need to get this refactor done for dropping Node 8 (I don't believe).

JustinBeckwith · 2020-06-24T04:22:59Z

I think we're ready to call this party a wrap :) Firestore is the only one left, and they're working independently to get things sorted out.

JustinBeckwith added the type: process A process-related concern. May include testing, release, or the like. label Feb 29, 2020
