Asynchronous context tracking | Node.js v24.6.0 Documentation

Source Code: lib/async_hooks.js

These classes are used to associate state and propagate it throughout callbacks and promise chains. They allow storing data throughout the lifetime of a web request or any other asynchronous duration. It is similar to thread-local storage in other languages.

The AsyncLocalStorage and AsyncResource classes are part of the node:async_hooks module:

import { AsyncLocalStorage, AsyncResource } from 'node:async_hooks';const { AsyncLocalStorage, AsyncResource } = require('node:async_hooks');

This class creates stores that stay coherent through asynchronous operations.

While you can create your own implementation on top of the node:async_hooks module, AsyncLocalStorage should be preferred as it is a performant and memory safe implementation that involves significant optimizations that are non-obvious to implement.

The following example uses AsyncLocalStorage to build a simple logger that assigns IDs to incoming HTTP requests and includes them in messages logged within each request.

import http from 'node:http';
import { AsyncLocalStorage } from 'node:async_hooks';

const asyncLocalStorage = new AsyncLocalStorage();

function logWithId(msg) {
  const id = asyncLocalStorage.getStore();
  console.log(`${id !== undefined ? id : '-'}:`, msg);
}

let idSeq = 0;
http.createServer((req, res) => {
  asyncLocalStorage.run(idSeq++, () => {
    logWithId('start');
    
    setImmediate(() => {
      logWithId('finish');
      res.end();
    });
  });
}).listen(8080);

http.get('http://localhost:8080');
http.get('http://localhost:8080');




const http = require('node:http');
const { AsyncLocalStorage } = require('node:async_hooks');

const asyncLocalStorage = new AsyncLocalStorage();

function logWithId(msg) {
  const id = asyncLocalStorage.getStore();
  console.log(`${id !== undefined ? id : '-'}:`, msg);
}

let idSeq = 0;
http.createServer((req, res) => {
  asyncLocalStorage.run(idSeq++, () => {
    logWithId('start');
    
    setImmediate(() => {
      logWithId('finish');
      res.end();
    });
  });
}).listen(8080);

http.get('http://localhost:8080');
http.get('http://localhost:8080');

Each instance of AsyncLocalStorage maintains an independent storage context. Multiple instances can safely exist simultaneously without risk of interfering with each other's data.

• options <Object>
  • defaultValue <any> The default value to be used when no store is provided.
  • name <string> A name for the AsyncLocalStorage value.

Creates a new instance of AsyncLocalStorage. Store is only provided within a run() call or after an enterWith() call.

• fn <Function> The function to bind to the current execution context.
• Returns: <Function> A new function that calls fn within the captured execution context.

Binds the given function to the current execution context.

• Returns: <Function> A new function with the signature (fn: (...args) : R, ...args) : R.

Captures the current execution context and returns a function that accepts a function as an argument. Whenever the returned function is called, it calls the function passed to it within the captured context.

const asyncLocalStorage = new AsyncLocalStorage();
const runInAsyncScope = asyncLocalStorage.run(123, () => AsyncLocalStorage.snapshot());
const result = asyncLocalStorage.run(321, () => runInAsyncScope(() => asyncLocalStorage.getStore()));
console.log(result);   

AsyncLocalStorage.snapshot() can replace the use of AsyncResource for simple async context tracking purposes, for example:

class Foo {
  #runInAsyncScope = AsyncLocalStorage.snapshot();

  get() { return this.#runInAsyncScope(() => asyncLocalStorage.getStore()); }
}

const foo = asyncLocalStorage.run(123, () => new Foo());
console.log(asyncLocalStorage.run(321, () => foo.get()));  

Added in: v13.10.0, v12.17.0

Disables the instance of AsyncLocalStorage. All subsequent calls to asyncLocalStorage.getStore() will return undefined until asyncLocalStorage.run() or asyncLocalStorage.enterWith() is called again.

When calling asyncLocalStorage.disable(), all current contexts linked to the instance will be exited.

Calling asyncLocalStorage.disable() is required before the asyncLocalStorage can be garbage collected. This does not apply to stores provided by the asyncLocalStorage, as those objects are garbage collected along with the corresponding async resources.

Use this method when the asyncLocalStorage is not in use anymore in the current process.

Added in: v13.10.0, v12.17.0

• Returns: <any>

Returns the current store. If called outside of an asynchronous context initialized by calling asyncLocalStorage.run() or asyncLocalStorage.enterWith(), it returns undefined.

Added in: v13.11.0, v12.17.0

• store <any>

Transitions into the context for the remainder of the current synchronous execution and then persists the store through any following asynchronous calls.

Example:

const store = { id: 1 };

asyncLocalStorage.enterWith(store);
asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
someAsyncOperation(() => {
  asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
}); 

This transition will continue for the entire synchronous execution. This means that if, for example, the context is entered within an event handler subsequent event handlers will also run within that context unless specifically bound to another context with an AsyncResource. That is why run() should be preferred over enterWith() unless there are strong reasons to use the latter method.

const store = { id: 1 };

emitter.on('my-event', () => {
  asyncLocalStorage.enterWith(store);
});
emitter.on('my-event', () => {
  asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
});

asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
emitter.emit('my-event');
asyncLocalStorage.getStore();  

Added in: v24.0.0

• Type: <string>

The name of the AsyncLocalStorage instance if provided.

Added in: v13.10.0, v12.17.0

• store <any>
• callback <Function>
• ...args <any>

Runs a function synchronously within a context and returns its return value. The store is not accessible outside of the callback function. The store is accessible to any asynchronous operations created within the callback.

The optional args are passed to the callback function.

If the callback function throws an error, the error is thrown by run() too. The stacktrace is not impacted by this call and the context is exited.

Example:

const store = { id: 2 };
try {
  asyncLocalStorage.run(store, () => {
    asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
    setTimeout(() => {
      asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
    }, 200);
    throw new Error();
  });
} catch (e) {
  asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
  
} 

Added in: v13.10.0, v12.17.0

• callback <Function>
• ...args <any>

Runs a function synchronously outside of a context and returns its return value. The store is not accessible within the callback function or the asynchronous operations created within the callback. Any getStore() call done within the callback function will always return undefined.

The optional args are passed to the callback function.

If the callback function throws an error, the error is thrown by exit() too. The stacktrace is not impacted by this call and the context is re-entered.

Example:

try {
  asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
  asyncLocalStorage.exit(() => {
    asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
    throw new Error();
  });
} catch (e) {
  asyncLocalStorage.getStore(); 
  
} 

If, within an async function, only one await call is to run within a context, the following pattern should be used:

async function fn() {
  await asyncLocalStorage.run(new Map(), () => {
    asyncLocalStorage.getStore().set('key', value);
    return foo(); 
  });
} 

In this example, the store is only available in the callback function and the functions called by foo. Outside of run, calling getStore will return undefined.

In most cases, AsyncLocalStorage works without issues. In rare situations, the current store is lost in one of the asynchronous operations.

If your code is callback-based, it is enough to promisify it with util.promisify() so it starts working with native promises.

If you need to use a callback-based API or your code assumes a custom thenable implementation, use the AsyncResource class to associate the asynchronous operation with the correct execution context. Find the function call responsible for the context loss by logging the content of asyncLocalStorage.getStore() after the calls you suspect are responsible for the loss. When the code logs undefined, the last callback called is probably responsible for the context loss.

The class AsyncResource is designed to be extended by the embedder's async resources. Using this, users can easily trigger the lifetime events of their own resources.

The init hook will trigger when an AsyncResource is instantiated.

The following is an overview of the AsyncResource API.

import { AsyncResource, executionAsyncId } from 'node:async_hooks';




const asyncResource = new AsyncResource(
  type, { triggerAsyncId: executionAsyncId(), requireManualDestroy: false },
);







asyncResource.runInAsyncScope(fn, thisArg, ...args);


asyncResource.emitDestroy();


asyncResource.asyncId();


asyncResource.triggerAsyncId();const { AsyncResource, executionAsyncId } = require('node:async_hooks');




const asyncResource = new AsyncResource(
  type, { triggerAsyncId: executionAsyncId(), requireManualDestroy: false },
);







asyncResource.runInAsyncScope(fn, thisArg, ...args);


asyncResource.emitDestroy();


asyncResource.asyncId();


asyncResource.triggerAsyncId();

• type <string> The type of async event.
• options <Object>
  • triggerAsyncId <number> The ID of the execution context that created this async event. Default: executionAsyncId().
  • requireManualDestroy <boolean> If set to true, disables emitDestroy when the object is garbage collected. This usually does not need to be set (even if emitDestroy is called manually), unless the resource's asyncId is retrieved and the sensitive API's emitDestroy is called with it. When set to false, the emitDestroy call on garbage collection will only take place if there is at least one active destroy hook. Default: false.

Example usage:

class DBQuery extends AsyncResource {
  constructor(db) {
    super('DBQuery');
    this.db = db;
  }

  getInfo(query, callback) {
    this.db.get(query, (err, data) => {
      this.runInAsyncScope(callback, null, err, data);
    });
  }

  close() {
    this.db = null;
    this.emitDestroy();
  }
} 

• fn <Function> The function to bind to the current execution context.
• type <string> An optional name to associate with the underlying AsyncResource.
• thisArg <any>

Binds the given function to the current execution context.

• fn <Function> The function to bind to the current AsyncResource.
• thisArg <any>

Binds the given function to execute to this AsyncResource's scope.

Added in: v9.6.0

• fn <Function> The function to call in the execution context of this async resource.
• thisArg <any> The receiver to be used for the function call.
• ...args <any> Optional arguments to pass to the function.

Call the provided function with the provided arguments in the execution context of the async resource. This will establish the context, trigger the AsyncHooks before callbacks, call the function, trigger the AsyncHooks after callbacks, and then restore the original execution context.

• Returns: <AsyncResource> A reference to asyncResource.

Call all destroy hooks. This should only ever be called once. An error will be thrown if it is called more than once. This must be manually called. If the resource is left to be collected by the GC then the destroy hooks will never be called.

• Returns: <number> The unique asyncId assigned to the resource.

• Returns: <number> The same triggerAsyncId that is passed to the AsyncResource constructor.

The following example shows how to use the AsyncResource class to properly provide async tracking for a Worker pool. Other resource pools, such as database connection pools, can follow a similar model.

Assuming that the task is adding two numbers, using a file named task_processor.js with the following content:

import { parentPort } from 'node:worker_threads';
parentPort.on('message', (task) => {
  parentPort.postMessage(task.a + task.b);
});const { parentPort } = require('node:worker_threads');
parentPort.on('message', (task) => {
  parentPort.postMessage(task.a + task.b);
});

a Worker pool around it could use the following structure:

import { AsyncResource } from 'node:async_hooks';
import { EventEmitter } from 'node:events';
import { Worker } from 'node:worker_threads';

const kTaskInfo = Symbol('kTaskInfo');
const kWorkerFreedEvent = Symbol('kWorkerFreedEvent');

class WorkerPoolTaskInfo extends AsyncResource {
  constructor(callback) {
    super('WorkerPoolTaskInfo');
    this.callback = callback;
  }

  done(err, result) {
    this.runInAsyncScope(this.callback, null, err, result);
    this.emitDestroy();  
  }
}

export default class WorkerPool extends EventEmitter {
  constructor(numThreads) {
    super();
    this.numThreads = numThreads;
    this.workers = [];
    this.freeWorkers = [];
    this.tasks = [];

    for (let i = 0; i < numThreads; i++)
      this.addNewWorker();

    
    
    this.on(kWorkerFreedEvent, () => {
      if (this.tasks.length > 0) {
        const { task, callback } = this.tasks.shift();
        this.runTask(task, callback);
      }
    });
  }

  addNewWorker() {
    const worker = new Worker(new URL('task_processor.js', import.meta.url));
    worker.on('message', (result) => {
      
      
      
      worker[kTaskInfo].done(null, result);
      worker[kTaskInfo] = null;
      this.freeWorkers.push(worker);
      this.emit(kWorkerFreedEvent);
    });
    worker.on('error', (err) => {
      
      
      if (worker[kTaskInfo])
        worker[kTaskInfo].done(err, null);
      else
        this.emit('error', err);
      
      
      this.workers.splice(this.workers.indexOf(worker), 1);
      this.addNewWorker();
    });
    this.workers.push(worker);
    this.freeWorkers.push(worker);
    this.emit(kWorkerFreedEvent);
  }

  runTask(task, callback) {
    if (this.freeWorkers.length === 0) {
      
      this.tasks.push({ task, callback });
      return;
    }

    const worker = this.freeWorkers.pop();
    worker[kTaskInfo] = new WorkerPoolTaskInfo(callback);
    worker.postMessage(task);
  }

  close() {
    for (const worker of this.workers) worker.terminate();
  }
}const { AsyncResource } = require('node:async_hooks');
const { EventEmitter } = require('node:events');
const path = require('node:path');
const { Worker } = require('node:worker_threads');

const kTaskInfo = Symbol('kTaskInfo');
const kWorkerFreedEvent = Symbol('kWorkerFreedEvent');

class WorkerPoolTaskInfo extends AsyncResource {
  constructor(callback) {
    super('WorkerPoolTaskInfo');
    this.callback = callback;
  }

  done(err, result) {
    this.runInAsyncScope(this.callback, null, err, result);
    this.emitDestroy();  
  }
}

class WorkerPool extends EventEmitter {
  constructor(numThreads) {
    super();
    this.numThreads = numThreads;
    this.workers = [];
    this.freeWorkers = [];
    this.tasks = [];

    for (let i = 0; i < numThreads; i++)
      this.addNewWorker();

    
    
    this.on(kWorkerFreedEvent, () => {
      if (this.tasks.length > 0) {
        const { task, callback } = this.tasks.shift();
        this.runTask(task, callback);
      }
    });
  }

  addNewWorker() {
    const worker = new Worker(path.resolve(__dirname, 'task_processor.js'));
    worker.on('message', (result) => {
      
      
      
      worker[kTaskInfo].done(null, result);
      worker[kTaskInfo] = null;
      this.freeWorkers.push(worker);
      this.emit(kWorkerFreedEvent);
    });
    worker.on('error', (err) => {
      
      
      if (worker[kTaskInfo])
        worker[kTaskInfo].done(err, null);
      else
        this.emit('error', err);
      
      
      this.workers.splice(this.workers.indexOf(worker), 1);
      this.addNewWorker();
    });
    this.workers.push(worker);
    this.freeWorkers.push(worker);
    this.emit(kWorkerFreedEvent);
  }

  runTask(task, callback) {
    if (this.freeWorkers.length === 0) {
      
      this.tasks.push({ task, callback });
      return;
    }

    const worker = this.freeWorkers.pop();
    worker[kTaskInfo] = new WorkerPoolTaskInfo(callback);
    worker.postMessage(task);
  }

  close() {
    for (const worker of this.workers) worker.terminate();
  }
}

module.exports = WorkerPool;

Without the explicit tracking added by the WorkerPoolTaskInfo objects, it would appear that the callbacks are associated with the individual Worker objects. However, the creation of the Workers is not associated with the creation of the tasks and does not provide information about when tasks were scheduled.

This pool could be used as follows:

import WorkerPool from './worker_pool.js';
import os from 'node:os';

const pool = new WorkerPool(os.availableParallelism());

let finished = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
  pool.runTask({ a: 42, b: 100 }, (err, result) => {
    console.log(i, err, result);
    if (++finished === 10)
      pool.close();
  });
}const WorkerPool = require('./worker_pool.js');
const os = require('node:os');

const pool = new WorkerPool(os.availableParallelism());

let finished = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
  pool.runTask({ a: 42, b: 100 }, (err, result) => {
    console.log(i, err, result);
    if (++finished === 10)
      pool.close();
  });
}

Event listeners triggered by an EventEmitter may be run in a different execution context than the one that was active when eventEmitter.on() was called.

The following example shows how to use the AsyncResource class to properly associate an event listener with the correct execution context. The same approach can be applied to a Stream or a similar event-driven class.

import { createServer } from 'node:http';
import { AsyncResource, executionAsyncId } from 'node:async_hooks';

const server = createServer((req, res) => {
  req.on('close', AsyncResource.bind(() => {
    
  }));
  req.on('close', () => {
    
  });
  res.end();
}).listen(3000);const { createServer } = require('node:http');
const { AsyncResource, executionAsyncId } = require('node:async_hooks');

const server = createServer((req, res) => {
  req.on('close', AsyncResource.bind(() => {
    
  }));
  req.on('close', () => {
    
  });
  res.end();
}).listen(3000);
