shibd opened a new pull request, #235: URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-node/pull/235
### Motivation Currently, users using the `node js client` must first install the `C++ client`. And when the user executes `npm install`, it also needs to be compiled. This is not user-friendly. This PR is to provide pre-built packages for all the supported environments, using [GYP]() and rebuild. The pre-built package is then uploaded to [`Github Release`](https://github.com/shibd/pulsar-client-node/releases/tag/v1.7.0-rc.10), and when the user installs the client, the system version is matched and the pre-built package is downloaded. Currently tested `linux_x86` and `mac_x86`. I've built it in my [fork repository](https://github.com/shibd/pulsar-client-node/releases/tag/v1.7.0-rc.10) and can install it directly using the following command (without first installing the C++ client). ``` npm intall shibaodi-pulsar-client ``` ### Modifications #### New Github workflows - When trigger release: 1. Build the binary C++ static library first(use new c++ client 3.0 source). 2. And use [node-pre-gyp](https://github.com/mapbox/node-pre-gyp) pre-built `napi` packages. 3. Use [node-pre-gyp-github](https://github.com/bchr02/node-pre-gyp-github) publish this package to `GitHub Release`. - When trigger unit test(use ubuntu GitHub runner): 1. Install c++ lib(use new c++ client 3.0 version). 2. Use this c++ lib build `napi`. 3. Use pulsar image start broker(use pulsar latest). 5. Run the unit test. ### Documentation <!-- DO NOT REMOVE THIS SECTION. CHECK THE PROPER BOX ONLY. --> - [ ] `doc` <!-- Your PR contains doc changes.
