Termination

It is questionable whether a library should be able to terminate an application. Any API function can signal an error (ex.: cannot allocate memory), so the engine use the termination approach with this port function.

/**
 * Signal the port that jerry experienced a fatal failure from which it cannot
 * recover.
 *
 * @param code gives the cause of the error.
 *
 * Note:
 *      Jerry expects the function not to return.
 *
 * Example: a libc-based port may implement this with exit() or abort(), or both.
 */
void jerry_port_fatal (jerry_fatal_code_t code);

Error codes

typedef enum
{
  ERR_OUT_OF_MEMORY = 10,
  ERR_REF_COUNT_LIMIT = 12,
  ERR_DISABLED_BYTE_CODE = 13,
  ERR_FAILED_INTERNAL_ASSERTION = 120
} jerry_fatal_code_t;

I/O

These are the only I/O functions jerry calls.

/**
 * Jerry log levels. The levels are in severity order
 * where the most serious levels come first.
 */
typedef enum
{
  JERRY_LOG_LEVEL_ERROR,    /**< the engine will terminate after the message is printed */
  JERRY_LOG_LEVEL_WARNING,  /**< a request is aborted, but the engine continues its operation */
  JERRY_LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG,    /**< debug messages from the engine, low volume */
  JERRY_LOG_LEVEL_TRACE     /**< detailed info about engine internals, potentially high volume */
} jerry_log_level_t;

/**
 * Display or log a debug/error message, and sends it to the debugger client as well.
 * The function should implement a printf-like interface, where the first argument
 * specifies the log level and the second argument specifies a format string on how
 * to stringify the rest of the parameter list.
 *
 * This function is only called with messages coming from the jerry engine as
 * the result of some abnormal operation or describing its internal operations
 * (e.g., data structure dumps or tracing info).
 *
 * It should be the port that decides whether error and debug messages are logged to
 * the console, or saved to a database or to a file.
 *
 * Example: a libc-based port may implement this with vfprintf(stderr) or
 * vfprintf(logfile), or both, depending on log level.
 *
 * Note:
 *      This port function is called by jerry-core when JERRY_LOGGING is
 *      enabled. It is also common practice though to use this function in
 *      application code.
 */
void jerry_port_log (jerry_log_level_t level, const char *fmt, ...);

The jerry_port_print_char is currently not used by the jerry-core directly. However, it provides a port specific way for jerry-ext components to print information.

/**
 * Print a character to stdout.
 */
void jerry_port_print_char (char c);

Jerry Module system

The port API provides optional functions that can be used by the user application to resolve modules. If no callback is provided to jerry_module_link, the jerry_port_module_resolve function is used for resolving modules.

/**
 * Opens file with the given path and reads its source.
 * @return the source of the file
 */
uint8_t *
jerry_port_read_source (const char *file_name_p, /**< file name */
                        size_t *out_size_p) /**< [out] read bytes */
{
  // open file from given path
  // return its source
} /* jerry_port_read_source */

/**
 * Release the previously opened file's content.
 */
void
jerry_port_release_source (uint8_t *buffer_p) /**< buffer to free */
{
  free (buffer_p);
} /* jerry_port_release_source */

/**
 * Default module resolver.
 *
 * @return a module object if resolving is successful, an error otherwise
 */
jerry_value_t
jerry_port_module_resolve (const jerry_value_t specifier, /**< module specifier string */
                           const jerry_value_t referrer, /**< parent module */
                           void *user_p) /**< user data */
{
  // Resolves a module using the specifier string. If a referrer is a module,
  // and specifier is a relative path, the base path should be the directory
  // part extracted from the path of the referrer module.

  // The callback function of jerry_module_link may call this function
  // if it cannot resolve a module. Furthermore if the callback is NULL,
  // this function is used for resolving modules.

  // The default implementation only resolves ECMAScript modules, and does
  // not (currently) use the user data.
} /* jerry_port_module_resolve */

/**
 * Release known modules.
 */
void
jerry_port_module_release (const jerry_value_t realm) /**< if this argument is object, release only those modules,
                                                       *   which realm value is equal to this argument. */
{
  // This function releases the known modules, forcing their reload
  // when resolved again later. The released modules can be filtered
  // by realms. This function is only called by user applications.
} /* jerry_port_module_release */

Date

/**
 * Get local time zone adjustment, in milliseconds, for the given timestamp.
 * The timestamp can be specified in either UTC or local time, depending on
 * the value of is_utc. Adding the value returned from this function to
 * a timestamp in UTC time should result in local time for the current time
 * zone, and subtracting it from a timestamp in local time should result in
 * UTC time.
 *
 * Ideally, this function should satisfy the stipulations applied to LocalTZA
 * in section 20.3.1.7 of the ECMAScript version 9.0 spec.
 *
 * See Also:
 *          ECMA-262 v9, 20.3.1.7
 *
 * Note:
 *      This port function is called by jerry-core when
 *      JERRY_BUILTIN_DATE is set to 1. Otherwise this function is
 *      not used.
 *
 * @param unix_ms The unix timestamp we want an offset for, given in
 *                millisecond precision (could be now, in the future,
 *                or in the past). As with all unix timestamps, 0 refers to
 *                1970-01-01, a day is exactly 86 400 000 milliseconds, and
 *                leap seconds cause the same second to occur twice.
 * @param is_utc Is the given timestamp in UTC time? If false, it is in local
 *               time.
 *
 * @return milliseconds between local time and UTC for the given timestamp,
 *         if available
 *.        0 if not available / we are in UTC.

double jerry_port_get_current_time (void);

External context

Allow user to provide external buffer for isolated engine contexts, so that user can configure the heap size at runtime and run multiple JS applications simultaneously.

/**
 * Get the current context of the engine. Each port should provide its own
 * implementation of this interface.
 *
 * Note:
 *      This port function is called by jerry-core when
 *      JERRY_EXTERNAL_CONTEXT is enabled. Otherwise this function is not
 *      used.
 *
 * @return the pointer to the engine context.

Sleep

/**
 * Makes the process sleep for a given time.
 *
 * Note:
 *      This port function is called by jerry-core when JERRY_DEBUGGER is set to 1.
 *      Otherwise this function is not used.
 *
 * @param sleep_time milliseconds to sleep.
