Current Status

  • Large percentage of the node.js API implemented
  • In most cases, existing node.js javascript is used for the implementation.
  • Available as an alpha release
  • Node Package Manager compliant
  • Can load many existing NPM modules from a standard NPM repository
  • Can run basic connect.js apps

Vision

  • Full Node API compatibility
  • Developer workflow similar if not identical to Node
  • Integration with existing Java technologies such as JMS and Infinispan using NPM modules, possibly working with NPM maintainers to make Java modules behave similarly to Java gems in Rubygems.
  • Ensure that Vert.x developers can write a mod-nodyn package giving Nodyn developers access to Vert.x and vice versa.
  • Integrate with Wildfly/EAP

Roadmap 2015 Jan-Dec

  • Publish maintenance releases for 1.x
  • Develop and publish NPM modules for high-priority Java technologies such as JMS and Infinispan
  • Provide support for running a Nodyn application inside of Wildfly/EAP, integrating with the container's clustering technologies
