About multi-threaded runtime library in JavaScript (detailed tutorial)-JS Tutorial-php.cn

This article mainly introduces the learning experience and code sharing of JavaScript multi-threaded runtime library Nexus.js. Friends in need can refer to it and learn together.

First of all, if you are not familiar with this project, it is recommended to read a series of articles written before. If you don't want to read this, don't worry. That content will also be covered here.

Now, let’s get started.

Last year, I started implementing Nexus.js, a multi-threaded server-side JavaScript runtime based on the Webkit/JavaScript kernel. I gave up on doing it for a while, for reasons beyond my control that I'm not going to discuss here, mainly: I couldn't bring myself to work for long periods of time.

So, let’s start by discussing the architecture of Nexus and how it works.

Event loop

There is no event loop

There is a thread pool with a (lock-free) task object

Every time setTimeout or setImmediate is called or a Promise is created, the task is queued to the task queue clock.

Whenever a task is scheduled, the first available thread will select the task and execute it.

Handle Promise on the CPU core. Calls to Promise.all() will resolve Promises in parallel.

ES6

supports async/await, and it is recommended to use

supports for await(...)

Support destructuring

Support async try/catch/finally

Module

CommonJS is not supported. (require(...) and module.exports)

All modules use the ES6 import/export syntax

Support dynamic import through import('file-or-packge').then( ...)

Support import.meta, such as: import.meta.filename and import.meta.dirname, etc.

Additional features: Support importing directly from URL, for example:

import { h } from &#39;https://unpkg.com/preact/dist/preact.esm.js&#39;;

EventEmitter

Nexus implements the Promise-based EventEmitter class

Event handlers are sequenced on all threads and will be executed in parallel.

The return value of EventEmitter.emit(...) is a Promise, which can be parsed into an array of return values in the event handler.

For example:

class EmitterTest extends Nexus.EventEmitter {
 constructor() {
  super();
  for(let i = 0; i < 4; i++)
   this.on(&#39;test&#39;, value => { console.log(`fired test ${i}!`); console.inspect(value); });
  for(let i = 0; i < 4; i++)
   this.on(&#39;returns-a-value&#39;, v => `${v + i}`);
 }
}
const test = new EmitterTest();
async function start() {
 await test.emit(&#39;test&#39;, { payload: &#39;test 1&#39; });
 console.log(&#39;first test done!&#39;);
 await test.emit(&#39;test&#39;, { payload: &#39;test 2&#39; });
 console.log(&#39;second test done!&#39;);
 const values = await test.emit(&#39;returns-a-value&#39;, 10);
 console.log(&#39;third test done, returned values are:&#39;); console.inspect(values);
}
start().catch(console.error);

I/O

All input/output is done through three primitives: Device, Filter and Stream.

All input/output primitives implement the EventEmitter class

To use Device, you need to create a ReadableStream or WritableStream on top of Device

To manipulate data, you can Filters are added to ReadableStream or WritableStream.

Finally, use source.pipe(...destinationStreams), and then wait for source.resume() to process the data.

All input/output operations are completed using ArrayBuffer objects.

Filter tried the process(buffer) method to process the data.

Example: Convert UTF-8 to UTF6 using 2 separate output files.

const startTime = Date.now();
 try {
  const device = new Nexus.IO.FilePushDevice(&#39;enwik8&#39;);
  const stream = new Nexus.IO.ReadableStream(device);
  stream.pushFilter(new Nexus.IO.EncodingConversionFilter("UTF-8", "UTF-16LE"));
  const wstreams = [0,1,2,3]
   .map(i => new Nexus.IO.WritableStream(new Nexus.IO.FileSinkDevice(&#39;enwik16-&#39; + i)));
  console.log(&#39;piping...&#39;);
  stream.pipe(...wstreams);
  console.log(&#39;streaming...&#39;);
  await stream.resume();
  await stream.close();
  await Promise.all(wstreams.map(stream => stream.close()));
  console.log(`finished in ${(Date.now() * startTime) / 1000} seconds!`);
 } catch (e) {
  console.error(&#39;An error occurred: &#39;, e);
 }
}
start().catch(console.error);

TCP/UDP

##Nexus.js provides an Acceptor class, which is responsible for binding ip addresses/ports and monitoring connections

Every time a connection request is received, the connection event will be triggered and a Socket device will be provided.

Each Socket instance is a full-duplex I/O device.

You can use ReadableStream and WritableStream to operate Socket.

The most basic example: (Send "Hello World" to the client)

const acceptor = new Nexus.Net.TCP.Acceptor();
let count = 0;
acceptor.on(&#39;connection&#39;, (socket, endpoint) => {
 const connId = count++;
 console.log(`connection #${connId} from ${endpoint.address}:${endpoint.port}`);
 const rstream = new Nexus.IO.ReadableStream(socket);
 const wstream = new Nexus.IO.WritableStream(socket);
 const buffer = new Uint8Array(13);
 const message = &#39;Hello World!\n&#39;;
 for(let i = 0; i < 13; i++)
  buffer[i] = message.charCodeAt(i);
 rstream.pushFilter(new Nexus.IO.UTF8StringFilter());
 rstream.on(&#39;data&#39;, buffer => console.log(`got message: ${buffer}`));
 rstream.resume().catch(e => console.log(`client #${connId} at ${endpoint.address}:${endpoint.port} disconnected!`));
 console.log(`sending greeting to #${connId}!`);
 wstream.write(buffer);
});
acceptor.bind(&#39;127.0.0.1&#39;, 10000);
acceptor.listen();
console.log(&#39;server ready&#39;);

Http

Nexus provides A Nexus.Net.HTTP.Server class, which basically inherits TCPAcceptor

Some basic interfaces

When the server completes the parsing/correction of the basic Http header of the incoming connection When verified, the connection event will be triggered using the connection and the same information

Each connection instance has a request and a response object. These are input/output devices.

You can construct ReadableStream and WritableStream to manipulate request/response.

If you connect to a Response object through a pipe, the input stream will use chunked encoding mode. Otherwise, you can use response.write() to write a regular string.

Complex Example: (Basic Http Server with Block Encoding, details omitted)

....
/**
 * Creates an input stream from a path.
 * @param path
 * @returns {Promise<ReadableStream>}
 */
async function createInputStream(path) {
 if (path.startsWith(&#39;/&#39;)) // If it starts with &#39;/&#39;, omit it.
  path = path.substr(1);
 if (path.startsWith(&#39;.&#39;)) // If it starts with &#39;.&#39;, reject it.
  throw new NotFoundError(path);
 if (path === &#39;/&#39; || !path) // If it&#39;s empty, set to index.html.
  path = &#39;index.html&#39;;
 /**
  * `import.meta.dirname` and `import.meta.filename` replace the old CommonJS `__dirname` and `__filename`.
  */
 const filePath = Nexus.FileSystem.join(import.meta.dirname, &#39;server_root&#39;, path);
 try {
  // Stat the target path.
  const {type} = await Nexus.FileSystem.stat(filePath);
  if (type === Nexus.FileSystem.FileType.Directory) // If it&#39;s a directory, return its &#39;index.html&#39;
   return createInputStream(Nexus.FileSystem.join(filePath, &#39;index.html&#39;));
  else if (type === Nexus.FileSystem.FileType.Unknown || type === Nexus.FileSystem.FileType.NotFound)
   // If it&#39;s not found, throw NotFound.
   throw new NotFoundError(path);
 } catch(e) {
  if (e.code)
   throw e;
  throw new NotFoundError(path);
 }
 try {
  // First, we create a device.
  const fileDevice = new Nexus.IO.FilePushDevice(filePath);
  // Then we return a new ReadableStream created using our source device.
  return new Nexus.IO.ReadableStream(fileDevice);

Benchmark

I think I've covered everything I've implemented so far. So now let's talk about performance.

Here are the current benchmarks for the appeal HTTP server, with 100 concurrent connections and a total of 10,000 requests:

As you can see, it still works. Although some connections will time out due to stress. I'm still researching what causes this issue.

The above is what I compiled for everyone. I hope it will be helpful to everyone in the future.
