While we will eventually add the support for v0.11, if someone wants to contribute and submit a PR for it, it would go a long way!

Cheers!

I have started to play with the new v8 API seems there were quite big changes the WIP branch is here: https://github.com/apiaryio/protagonist/tree/zdne/node-v0.11-support

New Node documentation available here: https://github.com/joyent/node/blob/v0.11.14-release/doc/api/addons.markdown

+1 (this should also add support for iojs 1.x)

[yakovkhalinsky]

Will just add this now happens on the new Node.js 0.12 release

@zdne Hmm, will this make the "new" protagonist versions backward-incompatible with 0.10?

[pksunkara]

@Almad I am looking at https://github.com/rvagg/nan using which we can still be backward compatible

[pksunkara]

nodejs/node#456

[pksunkara]

protagonist-experimental@0.18.7 now supports node.js ~0.8.15, 0.10.x, 0.11.x, 0.12.x and io.js v1.x.x

👍

[zdne]

@pksunkara you can't close this issue until it was released as protagonist 👎

[michaelgilley]

Is there an ETA for fix on this issue? It's the one thing stopping us from moving to 0.12 or io.js and I'm about to drop it if need be.

[pksunkara]

@michaelgilley It has been fixed and beta released at protagonist-experimental@0.18.7. We are looking to do an official release as soon as possible.

[michaelgilley]

Great! Thank you!

[jwhitehorn]

Any ETA for an official release?

[zdne]

@jwhitehorn less than two weeks

[zdne]

Until then please use protagonist-experimental if possible

[mansona]

Can you release it as a pre-release tag until then? https://github.com/npm/node-semver#prerelease-tags that way I can manually update sub-dependancies and have it still satisfy the version

[lholmquist]

+1 to a pre-release

[RHavar]

Yeah, pre-release would be much nicer

[zdne]

We are looking into this. Either we will have stable release this week or we will switch to the pre-release. Thanks for your patience.

[pksunkara]

We have released a pre-release of protagonist version 0.19.0-rc today. You can install it using the following command

npm install protagonist@0.19.0-rc

[zdne]

the latest protagonist v0.19.x supports node.js v0.10, v0.11, v0.12 as well as io.js
