Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Shows three POSIX examples: with dir/root/base, with root/base, and with root/name/ext. Demonstrates property priority rules.

```javascript
// If `dir`, `root` and `base` are provided,
// `${dir}${path.sep}${base}`
// will be returned. `root` is ignored.
path.format({
  root: '/ignored',
  dir: '/home/user/dir',
  base: 'file.txt'
});
// Returns: '/home/user/dir/file.txt'

// `root` will be used if `dir` is not specified.
// If only `root` is provided or `dir` is equal to `root` then the
// platform separator will not be included. `ext` will be ignored.
path.format({
  root: '/',
  base: 'file.txt',
  ext: 'ignored'
});
// Returns: '/file.txt'

// `name` + `ext` will be used if `base` is not specified.
path.format({
  root: '/',
  name: 'file',
  ext: '.txt'
});
// Returns: '/file.txt'
```

```javascript
const str = '\u00bd + \u00bc = \u00be';

// Prints: ½ + ¼ = ¾: 9 characters, 12 bytes
console.log(`${str}: ${str.length} characters, ` +
            `${Buffer.byteLength(str, 'utf8')} bytes`);
```

--------------------------------

### domain.run(fn[, ...args]) example: basic domain usage

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Demonstrates the most basic way to use a domain: create a domain, attach an 'error' handler, and run a function inside the domain. The example simulates async operations with process.nextTick and setTimeout, and throws an error from fs.open on a non-existent file. The d.on('error') handler is triggered instead of crashing the program.

```javascript
const domain = require('domain');
const fs = require('fs');
const d = domain.create();
d.on('error', (er) => {
  console.error('Caught error!', er);
});
d.run(() => {
  process.nextTick(() => {
    setTimeout(() => { // simulating some various async stuff
      fs.open('non-existent file', 'r', (er, fd) => {
        if (er) throw er;
        // proceed...
      });
    }, 100);
  });
});
```

--------------------------------

### path.basename() examples

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

```javascript
path.basename('/foo/bar/baz/asdf/quux.html');
// Returns: 'quux.html'

path.basename('/foo/bar/baz/asdf/quux.html', '.html');
// Returns: 'quux'
```

--------------------------------

### Write file with fs.open() (RECOMMENDED)

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Recommended approach for writing a file: directly open with 'wx' flag and handle the 'EEXIST' error if the file already exists. Avoids race conditions.

```javascript
fs.open('myfile', 'wx', (err, fd) => {
  if (err) {
    if (err.code === 'EEXIST') {
      console.error('myfile already exists');
      return;
    }

    throw err;
  }

  writeMyData(fd);
});
```

--------------------------------

### Demonstrate init callback with resources closed before use

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

```javascript
require('net').createServer().listen(function() { this.close(); });
// OR
clearTimeout(setTimeout(() => {}, 10));
```

--------------------------------

### https.get() example

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

  console.log('statusCode:', res.statusCode);
  console.log('headers:', res.headers);

  res.on('data', (d) => {
    process.stdout.write(d);
  });

}).on('error', (e) => {
  console.error(e);
});
```

### process.argv0 example: custom argv0

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Shows how process.argv0 stores the original value of argv[0] passed when Node.js starts, even when a custom argument is used via exec -a. The output demonstrates the difference between process.argv[0] and process.argv0.

```bash
$ bash -c 'exec -a customArgv0 ./node'
> process.argv[0]
'/Volumes/code/external/node/out/Release/node'
> process.argv0
'customArgv0'
```

### Create an HTTP/2 request with http2session.request()

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Creates an Http2Stream for sending an HTTP/2 request to a connected server. Only available for client sessions (http2session.type equals NGHTTP2_SESSION_CLIENT). The example connects to a local HTTPS server, sends a GET request, and logs the response status.

```javascript
const http2 = require('http2');
const clientSession = http2.connect('https://localhost:1234');
const {
  HTTP2_HEADER_PATH,
  HTTP2_HEADER_STATUS
} = http2.constants;

const req = clientSession.request({ [HTTP2_HEADER_PATH]: '/' });
req.on('response', (headers) => {
  console.log(HTTP2_HEADER_STATUS);
  req.on('data', (chunk) => { /** .. **/ });
  req.on('end', () => { /** .. **/ });
});
```

### Client request example: decompress HTTP response with zlib

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Shows how to make an HTTP GET request with an Accept-Encoding header and decompress the response based on the Content-Encoding header. Uses zlib.createGunzip() for gzip and zlib.createInflate() for deflate. The comment notes that zlib.createUnzip() can handle both cases.

```javascript
// client request example
const zlib = require('zlib');
const http = require('http');
const fs = require('fs');
const request = http.get({ host: 'example.com',
                           path: '/',
                           port: 80,
                           headers: { 'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip,deflate' } });
request.on('response', (response) => {
  const output = fs.createWriteStream('example.com_index.html');

  switch (response.headers['content-encoding']) {
    // or, just use zlib.createUnzip() to handle both cases
    case 'gzip':
      response.pipe(zlib.createGunzip()).pipe(output);
      break;
    case 'deflate':
      response.pipe(zlib.createInflate()).pipe(output);
      break;
    default:
      response.pipe(output);
      break;
  }
});
```

### Using the Console class

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Shows how to create a Console instance with custom output and error streams, then use its log, error, and warn methods.

```javascript
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);

myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err

const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
```

### Cluster example: master forks workers sharing an HTTP server

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Shows how to use the cluster module to fork a worker per CPU and share an HTTP server on port 8000. The master logs its PID and worker exit events; workers create the server and log their start. Run with `node server.js`.

```javascript
const cluster = require('cluster');
const http = require('http');
const numCPUs = require('os').cpus().length;

if (cluster.isMaster) {
  console.log(`Master ${process.pid} is running`);

  // Fork workers.
  for (let i = 0; i < numCPUs; i++) {
    cluster.fork();
  }

  cluster.on('exit', (worker, code, signal) => {
    console.log(`worker ${worker.process.pid} died`);
  });
} else {
  // Workers can share any TCP connection
  // In this case it is an HTTP server
  http.createServer((req, res) => {
    res.writeHead(200);
    res.end('hello world\n');
  }).listen(8000);

  console.log(`Worker ${process.pid} started`);
}
```

```bash
$ node server.js
Master 3596 is running
Worker 4324 started
Worker 4520 started
Worker 6056 started
Worker 5644 started
```

### Output of process.argv example

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Shows the expected output when running the process-args.js script with the given arguments.

```text
0: /usr/local/bin/node
1: /Users/mjr/work/node/process-args.js
2: one
3: two=three
4: four
```

--------------------------------

### Starting multiple REPL instances on stdin, Unix socket, and TCP socket

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

This example creates three REPL instances sharing a single global object: one on stdin, one on a Unix socket, and one on a TCP socket. It uses the 'repl' and 'net' modules. The Unix socket listens on '/tmp/node-repl-sock' and the TCP socket on port 5001. Clients like telnet or socat can connect to these sockets.

```javascript
const net = require('net');
const repl = require('repl');
let connections = 0;

repl.start({
  prompt: 'Node.js via stdin> ',
  input: process.stdin,
  output: process.stdout
});

net.createServer((socket) => {
  connections += 1;
  repl.start({
    prompt: 'Node.js via Unix socket> ',
    input: socket,
    output: socket
  }).on('exit', () => {
    socket.end();
  });
}).listen('/tmp/node-repl-sock');

net.createServer((socket) => {
  connections += 1;
  repl.start({
    prompt: 'Node.js via TCP socket> ',
    input: socket,
    output: socket
  }).on('exit', () => {
    socket.end();
  });
}).listen(5001);

```

### Event: 'setup'

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Emitted every time .setupMaster() is called. The settings object is the cluster.settings object at the time .setupMaster() was called and is advisory only.

```APIDOC
## Event: 'setup'

### Description
Emitted every time `.setupMaster()` is called. The `settings` object is the `cluster.settings` object at the time `.setupMaster()` was called and is advisory only, since multiple calls to `.setupMaster()` can be made in a single tick. If accuracy is important, use `cluster.settings`.

### Event
`setup`

### Parameters
- `settings` (Object) - The `cluster.settings` object at the time `.setupMaster()` was called.
```

### ERR_INVALID_THIS Example

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Example demonstrating the ERR_INVALID_THIS error when calling a Node.js API with an incompatible 'this' value.

```APIDOC
## ERR_INVALID_THIS

### Description
Used generically to identify that a Node.js API function is called with an incompatible `this` value.

### Example
```javascript
const { URLSearchParams } = require('url');
const urlSearchParams = new URLSearchParams('foo=bar&baz=new');

const buf = Buffer.alloc(1);
urlSearchParams.has.call(buf, 'foo');
// Throws a TypeError with code 'ERR_INVALID_THIS'
```
```

--------------------------------

### cluster.setupMaster() example

Source: https://nodejs.org/docs/v8.5.0/api/all.html

Shows how to use cluster.setupMaster() to change the exec, args, and silent settings for subsequent cluster.fork() calls. The first fork uses the 'https' argument, the second uses 'http'. Only affects future forks, not already running workers.

```javascript
const cluster = require('cluster');
cluster.setupMaster({
  exec: 'worker.js',
  args: ['--use', 'https'],
  silent: true
});
cluster.fork(); // https worker
cluster.setupMaster({
  exec: 'worker.js',
  args: ['--use', 'http']
});
cluster.fork(); // http worker
```
