# **node-addon-api module**
[](https://app.codecov.io/gh/nodejs/node-addon-api/tree/main)
[](https://nodei.co/npm/node-addon-api/) [](https://nodei.co/npm/node-addon-api/)
This module contains **header-only C++ wrapper classes** which simplify
the use of the C based [Node-API](https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/docs/api/n-api.html)
provided by Node.js when using C++. It provides a C++ object model
and exception handling semantics with low overhead.

## API References
API references are available in the [doc](doc/README.md) directory.
<!-- x-release-please-start-version -->
## Current version: 8.3.1
<!-- x-release-please-end -->
(See [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) for complete Changelog)
node-addon-api is based on [Node-API](https://nodejs.org/api/n-api.html) and supports using different Node-API versions.
This allows addons built with it to run with Node.js versions which support the targeted Node-API version.
**However** the node-addon-api support model is to support only the active LTS Node.js versions. This means that
every year there will be a new major which drops support for the Node.js LTS version which has gone out of service.
The oldest Node.js version supported by the current version of node-addon-api is Node.js 18.x.
## Badges
The use of badges is recommended to indicate the minimum version of Node-API
required for the module. This helps to determine which Node.js major versions are
supported. Addon maintainers can consult the [Node-API support matrix][] to determine
which Node.js versions provide a given Node-API version. The following badges are
available:
