# Deprecated APIs

<!--introduced_in=v7.7.0-->
<!-- type=misc -->

Node.js may deprecate APIs when either: (a) use of the API is considered to be
unsafe, (b) an improved alternative API is available, or (c) breaking changes to
the API are expected in a future major release.

Node.js utilizes three kinds of Deprecations:

* Documentation-only
* Runtime
* End-of-Life

A Documentation-only deprecation is one that is expressed only within the
Node.js API docs. These generate no side-effects while running Node.js.
Some Documentation-only deprecations trigger a runtime warning when launched
with [`--pending-deprecation`][] flag (or its alternative,
`NODE_PENDING_DEPRECATION=1` environment variable), similarly to Runtime
deprecations below. Documentation-only deprecations that support that flag
are explicitly labeled as such in the
[list of Deprecated APIs](#deprecations_list_of_deprecated_apis).

A Runtime deprecation will, by default, generate a process warning that will
be printed to `stderr` the first time the deprecated API is used. When the
`--throw-deprecation` command-line flag is used, a Runtime deprecation will
cause an error to be thrown.

An End-of-Life deprecation is used when functionality is or will soon be removed
from Node.js.

## Revoking deprecations

Occasionally, the deprecation of an API may be reversed. In such situations,
this document will be updated with information relevant to the decision.
However, the deprecation identifier will not be modified.

<a id="DEP0005"></a>
### DEP0005: Buffer() constructor
<!-- YAML
changes:
  - version: v10.0.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19524
    description: Runtime deprecation.
  - version: v6.12.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/10116
    description: A deprecation code has been assigned.
  - version: v6.0.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/4682
    description: Documentation-only deprecation.
-->

Type: Runtime (supports [`--pending-deprecation`][])

The `Buffer()` function and `new Buffer()` constructor are deprecated due to
API usability issues that can potentially lead to accidental security issues.

As an alternative, use of the following methods of constructing `Buffer` objects
is strongly recommended:

* [`Buffer.alloc(size[, fill[, encoding]])`][alloc] - Create a `Buffer` with
  *initialized* memory.
* [`Buffer.allocUnsafe(size)`][alloc_unsafe_size] - Create a `Buffer` with
  *uninitialized* memory.
* [`Buffer.allocUnsafeSlow(size)`][] - Create a `Buffer` with *uninitialized*
   memory.
* [`Buffer.from(array)`][] - Create a `Buffer` with a copy of `array`
* [`Buffer.from(arrayBuffer[, byteOffset[, length]])`][from_arraybuffer] -
  Create a `Buffer` that wraps the given `arrayBuffer`.
* [`Buffer.from(buffer)`][] - Create a `Buffer` that copies `buffer`.
* [`Buffer.from(string[, encoding])`][from_string_encoding] - Create a `Buffer`
  that copies `string`.

As of v10.0.0, a deprecation warning is printed at runtime when
`--pending-deprecation` is used or when the calling code is
outside `node_modules` in order to better target developers, rather than users.

<a id="DEP0006"></a>
### DEP0006: child\_process options.customFds
<!-- YAML
changes:
  - version:
    - v4.8.6
    - v6.12.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/10116
    description: A deprecation code has been assigned.
  - version: v0.11.14
    description: Runtime deprecation.
  - version: v0.5.11
    description: Documentation-only deprecation.
-->

Type: Runtime

Within the [`child_process`][] module's `spawn()`, `fork()`, and `exec()`
methods, the `options.customFds` option is deprecated. The `options.stdio`
option should be used instead.

<a id="DEP0007"></a>
### DEP0007: Replace cluster worker.suicide with worker.exitedAfterDisconnect
<!-- YAML
changes:
  - version: v9.0.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/13702
    description: End-of-Life.
  - version: v7.0.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/3747
    description: Runtime deprecation.
  - version: v6.12.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/10116
    description: A deprecation code has been assigned.
  - version: v6.0.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/3743
    description: Documentation-only deprecation.
-->

Type: End-of-Life

In an earlier version of the Node.js `cluster`, a boolean property with the name
`suicide` was added to the `Worker` object. The intent of this property was to
provide an indication of how and why the `Worker` instance exited. In Node.js
6.0.0, the old property was deprecated and replaced with a new
[`worker.exitedAfterDisconnect`][] property. The old property name did not
precisely describe the actual semantics and was unnecessarily emotion-laden.

<a id="DEP0008"></a>
### DEP0008: require('constants')
<!-- YAML
changes:
  - version: v6.12.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/10116
    description: A deprecation code has been assigned.
  - version: v6.3.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/6534
    description: Documentation-only deprecation.
-->

Type: Documentation-only

The `constants` module is deprecated. When requiring access to constants
relevant to specific Node.js builtin modules, developers should instead refer
to the `constants` property exposed by the relevant module. For instance,
`require('fs').constants` and `require('os').constants`.

<a id="DEP0009"></a>
### DEP0009: crypto.pbkdf2 without digest
<!-- YAML
changes:
  - version: v8.0.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/11305
    description: End-of-Life.
  - version: v6.12.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/10116
    description: A deprecation code has been assigned.
  - version: v6.0.0
    pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/4047
    description: Runtime deprecation.
-->

Type: End-of-Life

Use of the [`crypto.pbkdf2()`][] API without specifying a digest was deprecated
in Node.js 6.0 because the method defaulted to using the non-recommended
`'SHA1'` digest. Previously, a deprecation warning was printed. Starting in
Node.js 8.0.0, calling `crypto.pbkdf2()` or `crypto.pbkdf2Sync()` with an
undefined `digest` will throw a `TypeError`.

<a id="DEP0010"></a>
### DEP0010: crypto.createCredentials
<!-- YAML
changes:

Type: Runtime

`tls.parseCertString()` is a trivial parsing helper that was made public by
mistake. This function can usually be replaced with:

```js
const querystring = require('querystring');
querystring.parse(str, '\n', '=');
```

This function is not completely equivalent to `querystring.parse()`. One
difference is that `querystring.parse()` does url decoding:

```sh
> querystring.parse('%E5%A5%BD=1', '\n', '=');
{ '好': '1' }
> tls.parseCertString('%E5%A5%BD=1');
{ '%E5%A5%BD': '1' }

Type: Runtime

Using a property named `inspect` on an object to specify a custom inspection
function for [`util.inspect()`][] is deprecated. Use [`util.inspect.custom`][]
instead. For backward compatibility with Node.js prior to version 6.4.0, both
may be specified.

Type: End-of-Life.

The `ecdhCurve` option to `tls.createSecureContext()` and `tls.TLSSocket` could
be set to `false` to disable ECDH entirely on the server only. This mode was
deprecated in preparation for migrating to OpenSSL 1.1.0 and consistency with
the client and is now unsupported. Use the `ciphers` parameter instead.

    description: Runtime deprecation.
-->

Type: Runtime

Since Node.js versions 4.4.0 and 5.2.0, several modules only intended for
internal usage are mistakenly exposed to user code through `require()`. These
modules are:

- `v8/tools/codemap`
- `v8/tools/consarray`
- `v8/tools/csvparser`
- `v8/tools/logreader`
- `v8/tools/profile_view`
- `v8/tools/profile`
- `v8/tools/SourceMap`
- `v8/tools/splaytree`
- `v8/tools/tickprocessor-driver`
- `v8/tools/tickprocessor`
- `node-inspect/lib/_inspect` (from 7.6.0)
- `node-inspect/lib/internal/inspect_client` (from 7.6.0)
- `node-inspect/lib/internal/inspect_repl` (from 7.6.0)

The `v8/*` modules do not have any exports, and if not imported in a specific
order would in fact throw errors. As such there are virtually no legitimate use
cases for importing them through `require()`.

On the other hand, `node-inspect` may be installed locally through a package
manager, as it is published on the npm registry under the same name. No source
code modification is necessary if that is done.

Type: Documentation-only

Importing assert directly is not recommended as the exposed functions will use
loose equality checks. Use `require('assert').strict` instead. The API is the
same as the legacy assert but it will always use strict equality checks.

Node.js supports all GCM authentication tag lengths which are accepted by
OpenSSL when calling [`decipher.setAuthTag()`][]. This behavior will change in
a future version at which point only authentication tag lengths of 128, 120,
112, 104, 96, 64, and 32 bits will be allowed. Authentication tags whose length
is not included in this list will be considered invalid in compliance with

Type: Runtime

The embedded API provided by AsyncHooks exposes `.emitBefore()` and
`.emitAfter()` methods which are very easy to use incorrectly which can lead
to unrecoverable errors.

Use [`asyncResource.runInAsyncScope()`][] API instead which provides a much
safer, and more convenient, alternative. See

Type: Documentation-only (supports [`--pending-deprecation`][])

When assigning a non-string property to [`process.env`][], the assigned value is
implicitly converted to a string. This behavior is deprecated if the assigned
value is not a string, boolean, or number. In the future, such assignment may

Type: Documentation-only

Using [`crypto.createCipher()`][] and [`crypto.createDecipher()`][] should be
avoided as they use a weak key derivation function (MD5 with no salt) and static
initialization vectors. It is recommended to derive a key using
[`crypto.pbkdf2()`][] or [`crypto.scrypt()`][] and to use
[`crypto.createCipheriv()`][] and [`crypto.createDecipheriv()`][] to obtain the
[`Cipher`][] and [`Decipher`][] objects respectively.

Type: Documentation-only

Deprecated alias for [`zlib.bytesWritten`][]. This original name was chosen
