### nodejs/node | ||
|
||
* module: support __cjsUnwrapDefault interop flag in require(esm) [#54563](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/54563) | ||
* Guy - mostly name bikeshedding issue. | ||
* With the introduction for require ESM, working on transpilation of CJS into ESM | ||
* Given arbitrary module you don’t know what pattern to apply. | ||
* The idea is that adding a marker that tells the original form (ex cjs) it | ||
helps in figuring out which pattern to apply. | ||
* __cjsUnwrapDefault is the proposal for CJS | ||
* Question is should we call this cjsUnwrapDefault or model.exports | ||
* Joyee’s suggestion export as model.exports string name | ||
* Joyee, one question is that we don’t have agreement to add label to namespace as | ||
that might be SemVer major, if we instead add API like isCJS that could be SemVer | ||
minor. | ||
* Guy, use of new API like isCJS, then does not work for bundlers | ||
* Guy: Node.js loader adding a flag is something that other tools could also follow | ||
* Need different discussion about polluting the namespace | ||
* Guy: Split into 2 PRs one on import and one on require, one on import is tagged as | ||
SemVer major, the one for commonJS is marked as SemVer minor. | ||
* Antoine: can we clarify are we talking about models written in ESM syntax ? | ||
* Joyee: commonJS that has model.exports, now you want to upgrade to ESM, you want | ||
to do export.default, that does not translate well. The idea is we need some sort | ||
of flag to do the unwrapping properly. Bikeshedding how the hint should be written | ||
By the authors. Only useful in cases where you replace module.exports | ||
* Antoine: we mean a marker in the model, not a CLI flag right? | ||
* Guy: two sides, the require side would allow conversion of module to ESM while | ||
maintaining more backwards compatibility. | ||
* The other side is support import where | ||
* Guy: valid use case for many projects to compile from CJS into ESM. Main goal | ||
is the transpilation interopt use case. | ||
* Joyee: for those uses cases the name should not matter, really we are bikeshedding | ||
the name. | ||
* Guy: seems like we are at the point where we are stuck on the bikeshedding. | ||
* Joyee: would be in favor of having a vote | ||
* Antoine: have we considered only checking if there is a default export, that would | ||
avoid having to check a flag? | ||
* James: don’t necessarily go to a vote, would be good to give people some time to | ||
take a look at the issue first to see if we can reach consensus. Also don’t | ||
believe that just using default export will work. | ||
* Michael: would be good to have summary of the two choices in the issue to help | ||
people jump in. | ||
* Guy: seems good to give people some time to jump in. | ||
|
||
* deps: V8: backport f320600cd1f4 (V18.x CVE-2024-4761) [#54597](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/54597) | ||
* Matteo: added, believe we discussed last time. We agreed that we will not backport it | ||
* agreed we should remove from the agenda | ||
|
||
* Expose Undici's ProxyAgent and setGlobalDispatcher within Node [#43187](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/43187) | ||
* We discussed last time, there was openness to including more of Undici but not all, remove | ||
from agenda for now. | ||
|
||
### nodejs/TSC | ||
|
||
* Let's talk about the CI situation [#1614](https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/issues/1614) | ||
* Antoine: CI is not at its best, very hard to get green CI | ||
* flaky tests, either test issue or actual intermittent bugs | ||
* macos machines were having disk space issues | ||
* opened to discuss how we can do better | ||
* Yagiz, in last week a few collaborators reached out to express frustration because it is nearly | ||
impossible to land a PR. 5-6 related to flaky tests. | ||
* main concern is that collaborators will get frustrated and stop collaborator | ||
* Michael: main problem is that we don’t have people who will invest in fixing tests | ||
* Yagiz: believe we have too many machines. Linux foundation was supposed to get | ||
introduced to our infrastructure and improve | ||
* Michael: issue is generally not machines, but tests being actually flaky | ||
* Richard: its a combination of issues. MacOS machines have always been tight in space. | ||
There have been no changes in the machines. Know issue that at least one test is writing into | ||
tmp but eliminated that. If anybody know osx well and can help figure out where the extra | ||
Space | ||
* Richard: issue snowballs because people are running more builds (probably because of | ||
flaky issues). Resume build comes from Jenkins plugin, when you resume it re-runs | ||
everything that has not passed including jobs where there were flakes | ||
* Richard: don’t think we have an issue detecting flakes, main issue what do we do with flakes | ||
once we mark them as flakes. Fundamentally its a resourcing thing where people look at the | ||
flakes. | ||
* Matteo: | ||
* took a look at some of the flakes, typically they are related to timing differences in I/O. http, | ||
http, net. Makes it hard to investigate without logging on the machine as it passes locally | ||
Easily. In some cases seems impossible to get the same test passing on both systems. 90% are windows tests flaky. | ||
* Joyee: We really need some volunteers to look at the flakes, not sure how we can get enough volunteers. 50/50 for flaky | ||
tests bug in test or bug in Node.js. Not necessarily test with infra, just occurs on some infra because it exposes | ||
the problem. Need to investigate versus just marking as flaky as a memory issue with cause other tests to flake as well. | ||
* Richard: If you need access to a machine you can open an issue in build repo to get access | ||
to a machine to do investigation. | ||
* Yagiz: had open flaky pull request PR which could not land because of other flaky tests. | ||
open for more than 10 hours. Can we talk about how we can land those faster. | ||
* Michael: we should agree on our approach as that will lead to agreement on how we should | ||
address flaky tests. | ||
* Joyee: for that specific pull request we should just add another entry to mark the additional | ||
test that flaked and run again. | ||
* Michael: suggestion is PR to collaborator guide to capture how we handle a specific case in | ||
terms of landing even if flaky tests. | ||
