Node Modules
Zuplo provides certain node modules that you can use in your API Gateway. Zuplo itself does NOT run Node.js, but instead runs a custom JavaScript engine that is designed to be fast and secure. The Zuplo engine is compatible with certain node modules that don't use native code or certain Node.js specific features.
Advanced Usage
Using node modules is an advanced feature of Zuplo. In most cases, you should use the built-in Zuplo features to build your API Gateway. Node modules are not fully tested and may not work as you expect.
Instead of using node modules, we recommend calling APIs directly using fetch. In most cases, it is easy to have ChatGPT or other AI tools write the code required to call an API.
If you require a module that is not in this list, you can also bundle custom modules inside of your own project. This process does require some knowledge of node and npm, but it allows you to use any module or version of the module. To learn how to bundle your own modules, see the sample Custom Modules on GitHub.
Zuplo Portal Types
When referencing a custom module in the Zuplo Portal, you might see that the module has a red underline in your code editor. Some modules aren't typed or their types can't be bundled to use with the Zuplo Portal.
You can ignore these errors as they won't affect the functionality of the module. Alternatively, if you use local development you can install the module locally to enable code completion and type checking.

Test Carefully
It is important to test your use of any node module carefully. Zuplo does not run Node.js, it runs a custom JavaScript engine that is designed to be fast and secure. This means that these moodules may not work as you expect or certain functionality in these modules may not work at all.
