<h2>Deprecated APIs<span><a class="mark" href="#deprecated-apis" id="deprecated-apis">#</a></span><a aria-hidden="true" class="legacy" id="deprecations_deprecated_apis"></a></h2> <p>Node.js APIs might be deprecated for any of the following reasons:</p> <ul> <li>Use of the API is unsafe.</li> <li>An improved alternative API is available.</li> <li>Breaking changes to the API are expected in a future major release.</li> </ul> <p>Node.js uses three kinds of Deprecations:</p> <ul> <li>Documentation-only</li> <li>Runtime</li> <li>End-of-Life</li> </ul> <p>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 <a href="cli.html#--pending-deprecation"><code>--pending-deprecation</code></a> flag (or its alternative, <code>NODE_PENDING_DEPRECATION=1</code> environment variable), similarly to Runtime deprecations below. Documentation-only deprecations that support that flag are explicitly labeled as such in the <a href="#list-of-deprecated-apis">list of Deprecated APIs</a>.</p> <p>A Runtime deprecation will, by default, generate a process warning that will be printed to <code>stderr</code> the first time the deprecated API is used. When the <a href="cli.html#--throw-deprecation"><code>--throw-deprecation</code></a> command-line flag is used, a Runtime deprecation will cause an error to be thrown.</p> <p>An End-of-Life deprecation is used when functionality is or will soon be removed from Node.js.</p> <section><h3>Revoking deprecations<span><a class="mark" href="#revoking-deprecations" id="revoking-deprecations">#</a></span><a aria-hidden="true" class="legacy" id="deprecations_revoking_deprecations"></a></h3> <p>Occasionally, the deprecation of an API might be reversed.
