pkg VS InversifyJS

I don't remember the details, and cannot find my notes on vercel/pkg. But looking at https://github.com/vercel/pkg right now I see the project has been deprecated in favour of single-executable-applications

> Standalone CLI — we haven’t worked on a standalone CLI for the new engine yet, but will absolutely have it before the v4.0 release.

This part is the most exciting to me. Given the rest of the release announcement, I'm assuming this means that it'll be built in Rust rather than embed Node. While I'm not a Rust zealot of anything, I'm very partial to not embedding Node. Particularly when it depends on using Vercel's now-abandoned pkg[1] tool.`

The npm package called "pkg" seems to be the standard for packaging NodeJS applications

https://www.npmjs.com/package/pkg

Unfortunately you also need to bundle all your code into a single file for it to work, but you can use any bundler (webpack, parcel, etc) you want at least

Nodejs support for "single executable applications" is getting there - this issue below is preventing wider adoption at the moment:

"The single executable application feature currently only supports running a single embedded script using the CommonJS module system."

https://nodejs.org/api/single-executable-applications.html

Should be an awesome game changer for node.js when the feature gets rounded out.

Also check out vercel's `pkg`: https://github.com/vercel/pkg/issues/1291

Yes, you can. Check out pkg for a fun option, which can package up your project and Node.js into a single executable.

Further, you could experiment with the pkg tool that allows you to package up Node JS, your source, and your dependencies into one single executable for easy distribution.

package the app using https://github.com/vercel/pkg and use a smaller base image like alpine, busybox or even scratch (if possible)

Take a class for which we are tasked to write a unit test. This class may have a dozen methods and a dozen more attributes. In my environment we were already using inversify to dependency inject into this class, and using container snapshot and restore as setup and teardown operators, in our jest test file. But it began getting out of control even after refactoring into test cases and test runners.

Inversify (https://inversify.io/) for IoC.

Alguns frameworks trabalham desta forma por padrão, como é o caso do Angular, quando este não é o padrão do framework que utilizamos podemos usar alguma biblioteca, como a Inversify ou tsyringe da Microsoft.

Using decorators required setting an --experimentalDecorators experimental compiler flag. Several popular TypeScript libraries, such as type-graphql and inversify, rely on this implementation.

It blows 🤯 my mind to think that my #opensource project InversifyJS has reached over 100 MILLION DOWNLOADS on npm. InversifyJS is a lightweight (<50KB) but powerful Inversion Of Control (IoC) container for #JavaScript applications powered by #TypeScript. It is used to implement Dependency Injection (DI) in thousands of applications, including high-profile products like Microsoft Sway and over forty thousand open source repositories on #GitHub and over two thousand open source packages on #npm.

we use https://inversify.io/ in production, it works great.
