IPC 连接的识别路径

net.connect(), net.createConnection(), server.listen() 和 socket.connect() 使用一个 path 参数来识别 IPC 端点。

在 UNIX 上，本地域也称为 UNIX 域。参数 path 是文件系统路径名。它被从 sizeof(sockaddr_un.sun_path) - 1 处被截断，其长度因操作系统不同而在 91 至 107 字节之间变化。典型值在 Linux 上为 107，在 macOS 上为 103。该路径受到与创建文件相同的命名约定和权限检查。它将在文件系统中可见，并且将持续到取消链接的时候。

在 Windows 上，本地域通过命名管道实现。路径必须是以 \\?\pipe\ 或 \\.\pipe\ 为入口。路径允许任何字符，但后面的字符可能会对管道名称进行一些处理，例如解析 .. 序列。尽管如此，管道空间是平面的。管道不会持续，当最后一次引用关闭时，管道就会被删除。不要忘了 JavaScript 字符串转义需要使用双反斜杠指定路径，例如：

net.createServer().listen(
  path.join('\\\\?\\pipe', process.cwd(), 'myctl'));

net.connect(), net.createConnection(), server.listen() and socket.connect() take a path parameter to identify IPC endpoints.

On UNIX, the local domain is also known as the UNIX domain. The path is a filesystem pathname. It gets truncated to sizeof(sockaddr_un.sun_path) - 1, which varies on different operating system between 91 and 107 bytes. The typical values are 107 on Linux and 103 on macOS. The path is subject to the same naming conventions and permissions checks as would be done on file creation. If the UNIX domain socket (that is visible as a file system path) is created and used in conjunction with one of Node.js' API abstractions such as net.createServer(), it will be unlinked as part of server.close(). On the other hand, if it is created and used outside of these abstractions, the user will need to manually remove it. The same applies when the path was created by a Node.js API but the program crashes abruptly. In short, a UNIX domain socket once successfully created will be visible in the filesystem, and will persist until unlinked.

On Windows, the local domain is implemented using a named pipe. The path must refer to an entry in \\?\pipe\ or \\.\pipe\. Any characters are permitted, but the latter may do some processing of pipe names, such as resolving .. sequences. Despite how it might look, the pipe namespace is flat. Pipes will not persist. They are removed when the last reference to them is closed. Unlike UNIX domain sockets, Windows will close and remove the pipe when the owning process exits.

JavaScript string escaping requires paths to be specified with extra backslash escaping such as:

net.createServer().listen(
  path.join('\\\\?\\pipe', process.cwd(), 'myctl'));
