Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine.
Development versions of BLFS may not build or run some packages properly if LFS or dependencies have been updated since the most recent stable versions of the books.

Estimated disk space required: 1040 MB (add 65 MB for tests)
Estimated build time: 10.9 SBU (add 3.2 SBU for tests: both using parallelism=8 and 8 CPUs online, parts of the tests will use all online CPUs)
Brotli-1.1.0, c-ares-1.25.0, ICU-74.1, libuv-1.47.0, and nghttp2-1.58.0
http-parser and npm (an internal copy of npm will be installed if not present)
Build Node.js by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --shared-brotli \ --shared-cares \ --shared-libuv \ --shared-openssl \ --shared-nghttp2 \ --shared-zlib \ --with-intl=system-icu && make
To test the results, issue: make test-only.
Now, as the root
user:
make install && ln -sf node /usr/share/doc/node-20.11.0
--with-intl=system-icu
: use the system version of icu. Other values are full-icu
(to build a local, full icu library) and small-icu
(to build a local, minimal icu library).
--shared-{brotli,cares,libuv,nghttp2,openssl,zlib}
: use the system installed libraries instead of local copies.
--without-npm
: do not build npm (use if you'd like to build a separate npm later).
--shared-http-parser
: use the system installed library instead of a local copy.
