Description of change

9359de9
made sure that if no callback function is passed to asynchronous
functions, the system will throw.

But, this breaks a lot of existing modules including npm (Refer:
#7846). Till all the necessary
dependencies use the async functions properly, no module can work.

So, this patch issues a deprecation warning, instead of throwing and
the throwing behaviour will be restored in the next major release.

I like the approach here. +1 for this over the revert

I did remember the other TODO/FIXME/etc.'s format is not like this, suggest:
// TODO(thefourtheye): throw error instead of deprecation warning in v8.0.0

Do you guys know how I can locally reproduce this problem?

make test-npm

thefourtheye · 2016-07-28T08:49:50Z

~~I think when npm/npm#13497 lands and gets integrated to Node.js Core, this problem will be solved.~~

Wait, this should not fail though. I'll investigate further, a little later.

You can just compare cb === undefined.

jasnell · 2016-08-04T19:06:52Z

A test case validating that the deprecation warning is emitted would be good. With that added this LGTM

addaleax · 2016-08-04T22:47:14Z

@thefourtheye As expected, this conflicts now… I think it’s okay to apply the changes that got reverted here again (with the intention to squash in the warnings?). Sorry for the trouble the process is causing you!

jasnell · 2016-08-09T19:46:21Z

thefourtheye · 2016-08-12T07:07:01Z

Updated with the deprecation warning alone. PTAL people.

silverwind · 2016-08-12T18:08:07Z

lib/fs.js

are deprecated

or even better, make it singular.

@silverwind Done.

jasnell · 2016-08-18T18:25:16Z

~~LGTM with @silverwind's nit addressed~~

Actually, let me take that back... this uses internal which means it would end up being blocked by the graceful-fs issues. Instead of using printDeprecationNotice, this should be modified to use the new process.emitWarning() API.

For instance:

process.emitWarning(depMessage,'DeprecationWarning');

By passing DeprecationWarning as the second argument, this will be handled as a normal deprecation.

ping @thefourtheye

thefourtheye · 2016-08-19T01:28:00Z

@jasnell I modified it to use printDeprecation function which already takes care of the graceful-fs problem. Is that okay?

jasnell · 2016-08-19T01:38:50Z

@thefourtheye ... That partially handles it. See #8166. I'm attempting to move things away from using the internal util printDeprecationMessage.

jasnell · 2016-08-26T14:00:04Z

LGTM with a nit if CI is green.

This patch issues a deprecation warning, if an asynchronous function is called without a callback function.
