12 - Improve benchmarks: add IO intensive task workload, add task size option, integrate into eslint.
14 ## [2.3.4] - 2022-10-17
18 - Fully automate release process with release-it.
22 - Optimize fair share task scheduling algorithm implementation.
23 - Update benchmarks versus external pools results with latest version.
25 ## [2.3.3] - 2022-10-15
29 - Add support for [cluster settings](https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html#cluster_cluster_settings) in cluster pool options.
31 ## [2.3.2] - 2022-10-14
35 - Optimize fair share worker selection strategy implementation.
39 - Fix WRR worker selection strategy: ensure the condition triggering the round robin can be fulfilled.
41 ## [2.3.1] - 2022-10-13
45 - Pool worker choice strategies:
46 - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.WEIGHTED_ROUND_ROBIN` strategy based on weighted round robin scheduling algorithm using tasks execution time for now.
47 - `WorkerChoiceStrategies.FAIR_SHARE` strategy based on fair share scheduling algorithm using tasks execution time for now.
49 ## [2.2.2] - 2022-10-09
53 - Fixed `README.md` file.
55 ## [2.2.1] - 2022-10-08
59 - Dynamic worker choice strategy change at runtime.
61 ## [2.2.0] - 2022-01-05
65 - Support only NodeJS version 16.x.x for cluster pool: upstream cluster API have changed on that version.
67 ## [2.1.0] - 2021-08-29
71 - Add an optional pool option `messageHandler` to `PoolOptions<Worker>` for registering a message handler callback on each worker.
75 - `AbstractWorker` class `maxInactiveTime`, `killBehavior` and `async` attributes have been removed in favour of the same ones in the worker options `opts` public attribute.
76 - `AbstractWorker` class `lastTask` attribute have been renamed to `lastTaskTimestamp`.
77 - `AbstractWorker` class `interval` attribute have been renamed to `aliveInterval`.
78 - `AbstractWorker` class cannot be instantiated without specifying the `mainWorker` argument referencing the main worker.
80 ## [2.0.2] - 2021-05-12
84 - Fix `busy` event emission on fixed pool type
86 ## [2.0.1] - 2021-03-16
90 - Check if pool options are properly set.
91 - `busy` event is emitted on all pool types.
93 ## [2.0.0] - 2021-03-01
97 - Now a thread/process by default is not deleted when the task submitted take more time than maxInactiveTime configured (issue #70).
101 - `FullPool` event is now renamed to `busy`.
102 - `maxInactiveTime` on `ThreadWorker` default behavior is now changed, if you want to keep the old behavior set `killBehavior` to `KillBehaviors.HARD`.
103 _Find more details on our JSDoc._
105 - `maxTasks` option on `FixedThreadPool` and `DynamicThreadPool` is now removed since is no more needed.
107 - We changed some internal structures, but you shouldn't be too affected by them as these are internal changes.
109 ### Pool options types declaration merge
111 `FixedThreadPoolOptions` and `DynamicThreadPoolOptions` type declarations have been merged to `PoolOptions<Worker>`.
113 #### New `export` strategy
117 const DynamicThreadPool = require('poolifier/lib/dynamic')
119 const { DynamicThreadPool } = require('poolifier/lib/dynamic')
122 But you should always prefer just using
125 const { DynamicThreadPool } = require('poolifier')
128 #### New type definitions for input data and response
130 For cluster worker and worker-thread pools, you can now only send and receive serializable data.
131 _This is not a limitation by poolifier but NodeJS._
133 #### Public property replacements
135 `numWorkers` property is now `numberOfWorkers`
137 #### Internal (protected) properties and methods renaming
139 These properties are not intended for end users
141 - `id` => `nextMessageId`
143 These methods are not intended for end users
145 - `_chooseWorker` => `chooseWorker`
146 - `_newWorker` => `createWorker`
147 - `_execute` => `internalExecute`
148 - `_chooseWorker` => `chooseWorker`
149 - `_checkAlive` => `checkAlive`
151 - `_runAsync` => `runAsync`
153 ## [1.1.0] - 2020-05-21
157 - ThreadWorker support async functions as option
158 - Various external library patches
160 ## [1.0.0] - 2020-01-24
164 - FixedThreadPool implementation
165 - DynamicThreadPool implementation
166 - WorkerThread implementation to improve developer experience
