2.3 Open Issues

This section lists, groups, and then summarizes issues that were created within the last week in the repository.

Issues Opened This Week: 1

Summarized Issues:

• Performance regression in SockJS import: This issue highlights a performance regression caused by switching from a static to a dynamic import of SockJS in Meteor 3.5-beta, which significantly increases latency when establishing DDP connections. The proposed solution is to restore the static import to remove this delay while still supporting the DISABLE_SOCKJS option.

Pull Requests Opened This Week: 13

Key Open Pull Requests

1. experiment(isobuild): Isobuild Performance Optimizations: This pull request introduces a comprehensive set of exploratory performance optimizations and modernizations to Meteor's isobuild system, including removal of underscore.js in favor of native ES2019+ features, caching compiled V8 bytecode, replacing the JS parser with a faster Rust-based oxc-parser, generating CommonJS modules for plugin loading to leverage Node's compile cache, implementing a highly efficient single-pass import scanner, persisting builder state to skip redundant file writes, caching import maps, optimizing linker and builder hash computations, and adding an optional native Rust JS minifier, all resulting in significant reductions in warm build times and improved build system maintainability without changing public APIs.

• Associated Commits: 71d29, 4dab8, 18335, b6e8a, fc93a, 8a740, 6327d, 139ea, 24b08, 2b11b, 17ddf, 60d91

2. Replace case permutation regex with MongoDB collation lookups: This pull request replaces the previous case permutation regex approach for case-insensitive MongoDB queries with a more efficient single method using MongoDB collation lookups, adds configurable collation indexes on username and email fields, includes validation for all collation settings, and provides multiple tests to ensure correctness.

• URL: pull/14211

• Associated Commits: 3b629, 78b30, 329f3, 31f18, 23787, 4fdc7

3. perf(ddp): zero-clone stringifyDDP: This pull request improves the performance of the DDPCommon.stringifyDDP function by eliminating the deep cloning of every outgoing DDP message and replacing it with a zero-clone, copy-on-write serialization approach that includes a fast path for payload-free messages and fixes double serialization, resulting in significant speedups especially when sending the same message to many clients.

• URL: pull/14213

• Associated Commits: 5be13, fd0e3, 1de11

Other Open Pull Requests

• Meteor app settings in package.json: This pull request adds support for specifying Meteor app settings directly within the "meteor.settings" field in package.json, removing the need for a separate settings file. It also enforces that if both the --settings flag and the "meteor.settings" field are used simultaneously, the app will fail to start with an error prompting the user to choose one method.
• pull/14215

• Node.js native test runner integration: Multiple pull requests introduce and enhance the use of the native Node.js node:test module for Meteor package testing. These include a proof-of-concept test driver package enabling server-side tests with native reporters and coverage, a new headless test driver for running tests without a browser, documentation updates guiding usage of the headless test script, and migration of eight core package test suites from Tinytest to the native test runner with all tests passing.
• pull/14216, pull/14224, pull/14223, pull/14230

• Fixes and improvements to test runners: These pull requests fix issues in test runners by updating the puppeteer test runner to use the new public msg.text() method for console output and by replacing the whitespace splitter in SERVER_NODE_OPTIONS with a shell-like parser to correctly handle quoted values and edge cases. Both changes improve reliability and correctness in test execution environments.
• pull/14222, pull/14225

• Node.js version update: This pull request updates the Node.js version used in the project to the latest patch release v22.22.1, aligning with the linked Node.js release notes.
• pull/14219

• Dependency cleanup: This pull request removes the direct ejson dependency from the accounts-password, accounts-passwordless, and session packages because these packages do not use EJSON directly and instead receive it transitively through other dependencies.
• pull/14221

• SockJS import revert to reduce latency: This pull request reverts the dynamic import of SockJS back to a static import to eliminate the approximately 110 ms latency added to every DDP connection. It preserves existing functionality for disabling SockJS and routing to native WebSocket when enabled.
• pull/14229

Key Closed Pull Requests

1. Refactor DDPRateLimiter to support async rule matchers: This pull request refactors the DDPRateLimiter and related rate limiting packages to support asynchronous rule matchers by enabling async functions in matching logic, optimizing rule checks to occur once per request for improved performance, updating type definitions accordingly, and revising documentation examples to reflect these asynchronous capabilities.

3. ddp-client: fix default DDP connection URL for mirror domains: This pull request fixes the default DDP connection URL resolution in the ddp-client to ensure that mirror domains connect to their specific websocket hosts based on the browser's current host, preserving the expected behavior when DDP_DEFAULT_CONNECTION_URL is not set.

Other Closed Pull Requests

• Internal build optimizations: This pull request introduces four targeted internal optimizations to Meteor's isobuild pipeline, including replacing file copy operations with hardlinks, parallelizing variable computation, adding an LRU cache for CSS minification, and optimizing cache key generation. These changes collectively reduce cold start build times by 13% and warm start build times by 17% without any breaking changes or API modifications.
  • pull/14212

• Accounts-base code modernizations: Multiple pull requests refactor the accounts-base module by modernizing JavaScript syntax and improving code clarity. Changes include replacing callback checks with optional chaining, using the spread operator instead of .push.apply, extracting shared helper functions to avoid code duplication, replacing .apply with .call and spread syntax, and substituting the legacy arguments object with rest parameters.
  • pull/14197, pull/14198, pull/14201, pull/14199, pull/14200

• Native WebSocket support and SockJS disabling: This pull request implements native WebSocket support on both client and server sides, replacing SockJS with a lightweight dynamic import of native WebSocket on the client and a new raw WebSocket server setup using faye-websocket on the server. This enables the DISABLE_SOCKJS=1 environment variable to function fully end-to-end, improving connection speed, reducing bundle size, and preserving default behavior and compatibility.
  • pull/14206

• Cordova HMR proxy middleware fix: This pull request prevents incorrect errors during development mode by skipping the setup of the Rspack Hot Module Replacement (HMR) proxy middleware when running a Cordova app.
  • pull/14226

• Modernizing hasOwn property checks: This pull request replaces all instances of Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call() and its alias hasOwn with the ES2022 static method Object.hasOwn() in accounts_server.js and accounts_common.js. This improves code readability and removes the now-unused alias.
  • pull/14196

• EJSON performance improvements: Several pull requests optimize the EJSON.equals function by implementing early bail-outs when objects have different key counts and restructuring early type checks to use typeof gating instead of redundant calls. Additionally, a copy-on-write recursive implementation replaces the clone-then-mutate approach in EJSON.toJSONValue and EJSON.fromJSONValue, reducing memory allocations and garbage generation.
  • pull/14205, pull/14208, pull/14209

• Blaze framework Windows path fix: This pull request ensures consistent use of POSIX-style paths across Blaze framework modules to fix import and compilation problems specifically encountered in Windows environments.
  • pull/14210

• Change streams opt-in and default reactivity: Two pull requests add a settings.json file to all skeletons enabling change streams opt-in by default for new skeletons (excluding skel-legacy and skel-minimal), and set changeStreams as the default reactivity mechanism in Meteor. Users can opt out by modifying or removing the reactivity property.
  • pull/14214, pull/14217

• Community package addition: This pull request adds the Wormhole package, created by @wreiske for AI integration, to the list of recommended community packages in the Meteor documentation.
  • pull/14220
