Koffi is a fast and easy-to-use C FFI module for Node.js, featuring:

• Low-overhead and fast performance (see benchmarks)
• Support for primitive and aggregate data types (structs and fixed-size arrays), both by reference (pointer) and by value
• Javascript functions can be used as C callbacks (since 1.2.0)
• Well-tested code base for popular OS/architecture combinations

The following combinations of OS and architectures are officially supported and tested at the moment:

This repository does not contain the code of Koffi but only exists as a front. For pratical reasons, I've started using a single repository for all my projects in 2018 because it is easier to manage.

The source code is available here: https://github.com/Koromix/rygel/ (in the src/koffi subdirectory).

Monorepositories have two killer features for me:

• Cross-project refactoring
• Simplified dependency management

You can find a more detailed rationale here: https://danluu.com/monorepo/

Koffi is built with a custom CMake-wrapper called CNoke, which also lives in the monorepository. Don't try to run CMake manually because it will fail.

Follow the documented build instructions to build Koffi from source.
