v8: add v8.startupSnapshot utils
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This adds several APIs under the `v8.startupSnapshot` namespace
for specifying hooks into the startup snapshot serialization
and deserialization.

- isBuildingSnapshot()
- addSerializeCallback()
- addDeserializeCallback()
- setDeserializeMainFunction()

## Startup Snapshot API

<!-- YAML
added: REPLACEME
-->

> Stability: 1 - Experimental
The `v8.startupSnapshot` interface can be used to add serialization and
deserialization hooks for custom startup snapshots. Currently the startup
snapshots can only be built into the Node.js binary from source.

```console
$ cd /path/to/node
$ ./configure --node-snapshot-main=entry.js
$ make node
# This binary contains the result of the execution of entry.js
$ out/Release/node
```

In the example above, `entry.js` can use methods from the `v8.startupSnapshot`
interface to specify how to save information for custom objects in the snapshot
during serialization and how the information can be used to synchronize these
objects during deserialization of the snapshot. For example, if the `entry.js`
contains the following script:

```cjs
'use strict';

const fs = require('fs');
const zlib = require('zlib');
const path = require('path');
const assert = require('assert');

const {
isBuildingSnapshot,
addSerializeCallback,
addDeserializeCallback,
setDeserializeMainFunction
} = require('v8').startupSnapshot;

const filePath = path.resolve(__dirname, '../x1024.txt');
const storage = {};

assert(isBuildingSnapshot());

addSerializeCallback(({ filePath }) => {
storage[filePath] = zlib.gzipSync(fs.readFileSync(filePath));
}, { filePath });

addDeserializeCallback(({ filePath }) => {
storage[filePath] = zlib.gunzipSync(storage[filePath]);
}, { filePath });

setDeserializeMainFunction(({ filePath }) => {
console.log(storage[filePath].toString());
}, { filePath });
```

The resulted binary will simply print the data deserialized from the snapshot
during start up:

```console
$ out/Release/node
# Prints content of ./test/fixtures/x1024.txt
```

Currently the API is only available to a Node.js instance launched from the
default snapshot, that is, the application deserialized from a user-land
snapshot cannot use these APIs again.

### `v8.startupSnapshot.addSerializeCallback(callback[, data])`

<!-- YAML
added: REPLACEME
-->

* `callback` {Function} Callback to be invoked before serialization.
* `data` {any} Optional data that will be passed to the `callback` when it
gets called.

Add a callback that will be called when the Node.js instance is about to
get serialized into a snapshot and exit. This can be used to release
resources that should not or cannot be serialized or to convert user data
into a form more suitable for serialization.

### `v8.startupSnapshot.addDeserializeCallback(callback[, data])`

<!-- YAML
added: REPLACEME
-->

* `callback` {Function} Callback to be invoked after the snapshot is
deserialized.
* `data` {any} Optional data that will be passed to the `callback` when it
gets called.

Add a callback that will be called when the Node.js instance is deserialized
from a snapshot. The `callback` and the `data` (if provided) will be
serialized into the snapshot, they can be used to re-initialize the state
of the application or to re-acquire resources that the application needs
when the application is restarted from the snapshot.

### `v8.startupSnapshot.setDeserializeMainFunction(callback[, data])`

<!-- YAML
added: REPLACEME
-->

* `callback` {Function} Callback to be invoked as the entry point after the
snapshot is deserialized.
* `data` {any} Optional data that will be passed to the `callback` when it
gets called.

This sets the entry point of the Node.js application when it is deserialized
from a snapshot. This can be called only once in the snapshot building
script. If called, the deserialized application no longer needs an additional
entry point script to start up and will simply invoke the callback along with
the deserialized data (if provided), otherwise an entry point script still
needs to be provided to the deserialized application.

### `v8.startupSnapshot.isBuildingSnapshot()`

<!-- YAML
added: REPLACEME
-->

* Returns: {boolean}

Returns true if the Node.js instance is run to build a snapshot.
