74750c7f 26## Why Poolifier?
e76f5485 27
6ec11f90 28Poolifier is used to perform CPU and/or I/O intensive tasks on Node.js servers, it implements worker pools using [worker_threads](https://nodejs.org/api/worker_threads.html) and [cluster](https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html) Node.js modules.
50aa7901 29With poolifier you can improve your **performance** and resolve problems related to the event loop.
063f8c5b 30Moreover you can execute your tasks using an API designed to improve the **developer experience**.

50aa7901 75## Overview
13031992 76
22c0d9a2 77Poolifier contains two [worker_threads](https://nodejs.org/api/worker_threads.html#class-worker)/[cluster](https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html#cluster_class_worker) worker pool implementations, you don't have to deal with [worker_threads](https://nodejs.org/api/worker_threads.html)/[cluster](https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html) complexity.
03babf6f 78The first implementation is a fixed worker pool, with a defined number of workers that are started at creation time and will be reused.
a36b9e1f 79The second implementation is a dynamic worker pool, with a number of worker started at creation time (these workers will be always active and reused) and other workers created when the load will increase (with an upper limit, these workers will be reused when active), the newly created workers will be stopped after a configurable period of inactivity.
22c0d9a2 80You have to implement your worker by extending the _ThreadWorker_ or _ClusterWorker_ class.

84```shell

88## Usage
89
a087069e 90You can implement a poolifier [worker_threads](https://nodejs.org/api/worker_threads.html#class-worker) worker in a simple way by extending the class _ThreadWorker_:
1a4ec243
APA
91
92```js
d35e5717 93import { ThreadWorker } from 'poolifier'
1a4ec243 94
78cea37e 95function yourFunction(data) {
106744f7 96 // this will be executed in the worker thread,
97 // the data will be received by using the execute method
98 return { ok: 1 }
99}
100
50aa7901 101module.exports = new ThreadWorker(yourFunction, {
124119cf 102 maxInactiveTime: 60000
50aa7901 103})
1a4ec243
APA
104```
105
0feeec4a 106Instantiate your pool based on your needs :
1a4ec243
APA
107
108```js
d35e5717 109import { DynamicThreadPool, FixedThreadPool, PoolEvents, availableParallelism } from 'poolifier'
1a4ec243 110
2fbe1783 111// a fixed worker_threads pool
6961ca9a 112const pool = new FixedThreadPool(availableParallelism(), './yourWorker.js', {
cb9249cf 113 errorHandler: e => console.error(e),
53795b86
JB
114 onlineHandler: () => console.info('worker is online')
115})
1a4ec243 116
8538ea4c
JB
117pool.emitter?.on(PoolEvents.ready, () => console.info('Pool is ready'))
118pool.emitter?.on(PoolEvents.busy, () => console.info('Pool is busy'))
164d950a 119
2fbe1783 120// or a dynamic worker_threads pool
31a7d5be 121const pool = new DynamicThreadPool(Math.floor(availableParallelism() / 2), availableParallelism(), './yourWorker.js', {
cb9249cf 122 errorHandler: e => console.error(e),
53795b86
JB
123 onlineHandler: () => console.info('worker is online')
124})
106744f7 125
8538ea4c
JB
126pool.emitter?.on(PoolEvents.full, () => console.info('Pool is full'))
127pool.emitter?.on(PoolEvents.ready, () => console.info('Pool is ready'))
128pool.emitter?.on(PoolEvents.busy, () => console.info('Pool is busy'))
1a4ec243
APA
129
130// the execute method signature is the same for both implementations,
74ecb519 131// so you can easily switch from one to another
8351c9af 132pool
8923de44 133 .execute()
cb9249cf 134 .then(res => {
8351c9af
JB
135 console.info(res)
136 })
cb9249cf 137 .catch(err => {
8351c9af
JB
138 console.error(err)
139 })
1a4ec243
APA
140```
141
6ec11f90 142You can do the same with the classes _ClusterWorker_, _FixedClusterPool_ and _DynamicClusterPool_.
