unenv-nightly

unenv

unenv provides a collection of Node.js and Web polyfills and mocking utilities with configurable presets for converting JavaScript code and libraries to be platform and runtime agnostic, working in any environment including Browsers, Workers, Node.js, Cloudflare Workers, Deno.

Unenv is used by Nitro and Nuxt today.

Install

# ✨ Auto-detect
npx nypm install -D unenv

# npm
npm install -D unenv

# yarn
yarn add -D unenv

# pnpm
pnpm install -D unenv

# bun
bun install -D unenv

Usage

Using env utility and built-in presets, unenv will provide an abstract configuration that can be used in bundlers (rollup.js, webpack, etc.).

import { env } from "unenv";

const { alias, inject, polyfill, external } = env({}, {}, {});

Note: You can provide as many presets as you want. unenv will merge them internally and the right-most preset has a higher priority.

Presets

node

(view source)

Suitable to convert universal libraries working in Node.js.

• Add supports for global fetch API
• Set Node.js built-ins as externals

import { env, node } from "unenv";

const envConfig = env(node, {});

nodeless

(view source)

Suitable to transform libraries made for Node.js to run in other JavaScript runtimes.

import { env, nodeless } from "unenv";

const envConfig = env(nodeless, {});

deno

(view source)

This preset can be used to extend nodeless to use Deno's Node.js API Compatibility (docs, docs).

[!WARNING] This preset is experimental and behavior might change!

import { env, nodeless, deno } from "unenv";

const envConfig = env(nodeless, deno, {});

cloudflare

(view source)

This preset can be used to extend nodeless to use Cloudflare Worker Node.js API Compatibility (docs).

[!WARNING] This preset is experimental and behavior might change!

[!NOTE] Make sure to enable nodejs_compat compatibility flag.

import { env, nodeless, cloudflare } from "unenv";

const envConfig = env(nodeless, cloudflare, {});

vercel

This preset can be used to extend nodeless to use Vercel Edge Node.js API Compatibility (docs).

[!WARNING] This preset is experimental and behavior might change!

import { env, nodeless, vercel } from "unenv";

const envConfig = env(nodeless, vercel, {});

Built-in Node.js modules

unenv provides a replacement for Node.js built-in modules compatible with any runtime.

npm packages

unenv provides a replacement for common npm packages for cross platform compatibility.

Mocking utils

import MockProxy from "unenv/runtime/mock/proxy";

console.log(MockProxy().foo.bar()[0]);

The above package doesn't work outside of Node.js and neither we need any platform-specific logic! When aliasing os to mock/proxy-cjs, it will be auto-mocked using a Proxy Object which can be recursively traversed like an Object, called like a Function, Iterated like an Array, or instantiated like a Class.

We use this proxy for auto-mocking unimplemented internals. Imagine a package does this:

const os = require("node:os");
if (os.platform() === "windows") {
  /* do some fix */
}
module.exports = "Hello world";

By aliasing os to unenv/runtime/mock/proxy-cjs, the code will be compatible with other platforms.

Other polyfills

To discover other polyfills, please check ./src/runtime.

Nightly release channel

You can use nightly release channel to try latest changes in main branch via unenv-nightly.

If directly using unenv in your project:

{
  "devDependencies": {
    "unenv": "npm:unenv-nightly"
  }
}

If using unenv via another tool (Nuxt or Nitro) in your project:

{
  "resolutions": {
    "unenv": "npm:unenv-nightly"
  }
}
