util: support BigInt in util.format#22097

shisama · 2018-08-03T00:48:42Z

Adding support for BigInt in util.format and console.log.
Placeholder %d is replaced as Number when BigInt is set in
second argument.
Now, util.format('%d', 1180591620717411303424n) returns
'1.1805916207174113e+21'.
However, expected result is '1180591620717411303424'.

Checklist

make -j4 test (UNIX), or vcbuild test (Windows) passes
tests and/or benchmarks are included
documentation is changed or added

bigint is a distinct type from number and i don't think we should mix them up. perhaps there is another letter we can use? also any output of a bigint should include the n suffix

ghost

Your codes cannot pass eslint check because over 80-character each line. You have to step up to a new line, something like this format in your test file.

assert.strictEqual(util.format('%d', 1180591620717411303424), '1.1805916207174113e+21'); assert.strictEqual(util.format('%d', 1180591620717411303424n), '1180591620717411303424');

@devsnek Thanks.

perhaps there is another letter we can use?

OK, but I have no idea what the letter should be. So, Please help me if you have any ideas.
cc @nodejs/util

also any output of a bigint should include the n suffix

I agree with you. I'll fix it.

shisama · 2018-08-03T01:27:45Z

@Maledong Thanks. I fixed it.

doc/api/util.md

If anything, shouldn't %i be more suitable for BigInt, considering it's an integer?

silverwind · 2018-08-04T10:52:41Z

Before we jump to an implementation, I'd suggest first discussing it at whatwg/console. The spec says that %d and %i use parseInt for the type conversion. We are already violating this spec on %d by using Number, by the way.

shisama · 2018-08-05T16:06:54Z

@joyeecheung @silverwind Thank you for your comments. I think It's better to discuss before implementing this on Node.js. I created the issue in whatwg/console. whatwg/console#148

silverwind · 2018-08-09T16:45:15Z

edit: see whatwg/console#148 (comment)

Adding support for BigInt in util.format and console.log. Placeholder `%d` is replaced as Number when BigInt is set in second argument. Now, `util.format('%d', 1180591620717411303424n)` returns `'1.1805916207174113e+21'`. However, expected result is `'1180591620717411303424'`.

silverwind · 2018-09-17T17:54:59Z

Current implementation looks good to me, but please update the docs and maybe add a few more test cases with more than one specifier.

Not totally happy with the change to include the n suffix, but I see it's in line with what Chrome does.

shisama · 2018-09-18T07:15:52Z

@silverwind Thank you for your comments. I updated document util.md and add tests with two specifiers.

silverwind

LGTM, but would like to wait with landing a few more days in case there's any movement on whatwg/console#148.

silverwind · 2018-09-27T18:24:13Z

@devsnek does your red cross still stand? I'd like to merge this.

shisama · 2018-10-08T11:53:23Z

@devsnek Please review again. If you request changes still, please tell me what they are.

Thanks. Landed in d71dd97.

`util.format` and `console.log` now support BigInt via the existing format specifiers `%i` and `%d`. PR-URL: #22097 Reviewed-By: Roman Reiss <[email protected]> Reviewed-By: James M Snell <[email protected]>

Notable changes: * assert * The diff output is now a tiny bit improved by sorting object properties when inspecting the values that are compared with each other. #22788 * cli * The options parser now normalizes `_` to `-` in all multi-word command-line flags, e.g. `--no_warnings` has the same effect as `--no-warnings`. #23020 * Added bash completion for the `node` binary. To generate a bash completion script, run `node --completion-bash`. The output can be saved to a file which can be sourced to enable completion. #20713 * crypto * Added support for PEM-level encryption. #23151 * Added an API asymmetric key pair generation. The new methods `crypto.generateKeyPair` and `crypto.generateKeyPairSync` can be used to generate public and private key pairs. The API supports RSA, DSA and EC and a variety of key encodings (both PEM and DER). #22660 * fs * Added a `recursive` option to `fs.mkdir` and `fs.mkdirSync`. If this option is set to true, non-existing parent folders will be automatically created. #21875 * http2 * Added a `'ping'` event to `Http2Session` that is emitted whenever a non-ack `PING` is received. #23009 * Added support for the `ORIGIN` frame. #22956 * Updated nghttp2 to 1.34.0. This adds RFC 8441 extended connect protocol support to allow use of WebSockets over HTTP/2. #23284 * module * Added `module.createRequireFromPath(filename)`. This new method can be used to create a custom require function that will resolve modules relative to the filename path. #19360 * process * Added a `'multipleResolves'` process event that is emitted whenever a `Promise` is attempted to be resolved multiple times, e.g. if the `resolve` and `reject` functions are both called in a `Promise` executor. #22218 * url * Added `url.fileURLToPath(url)` and `url.pathToFileURL(path)`. These methods can be used to correctly convert between file: URLs and absolute paths. #22506 * util * Added the `sorted` option to `util.inspect()`. If set to `true`, all properties of an object and Set and Map entries will be sorted in the returned string. If set to a function, it is used as a compare function. #22788 * The `util.instpect.custom` symbol is now defined in the global symbol registry as `Symbol.for('nodejs.util.inspect.custom')`. #20857 * Added support for `BigInt` numbers in `util.format()`. #22097 * V8 API * A number of V8 C++ APIs have been marked as deprecated since they have been removed in the upstream repository. Replacement APIs are added where necessary. #23159 * Windows * The Windows msi installer now provides an option to automatically install the tools required to build native modules. #22645 * Workers * Debugging support for Workers using the DevTools protocol has been implemented. #21364 * The public `inspector` module is now enabled in Workers. #22769 * Added new collaborators: * digitalinfinity - Hitesh Kanwathirtha PR-URL: #23313
