#Callback

A validated JS function handle. Accepting napi.Callback as a parameter throws TypeError automatically when the JS caller passes a non-function.

pub fn forEach(env: napi.Env, items: []napi.Val, cb: napi.Callback) !void {
    for (items, 0..) |item, i| {
        _ = try cb.call(env, .{ item, @as(u32, @intCast(i)) });
    }
}

#Methods

#call(env, args)

args is one of:

• A Zig tuple. Each element is auto-converted to a JS value via type conversion.
• A []const napi.Val slice when you have one already built.

_ = try cb.call(env, .{ 1, "hello", true });   // tuple
_ = try cb.call(env, argv);                    // []const Val

The return value is the JS function's return value, as a napi.Val. Convert with .to(env, T).

#callWith(env, this, args)

const result = try cb.callWith(env, target, .{42});

target is the this binding for the call. The args parameter follows the same rules as call.

#threadsafe(env, name, T)

const tsfn = try cb.threadsafe(env, "events", u32);

Wraps the callback so it can be invoked from any thread. The third argument is the per-call payload type (use void for signal-only callbacks). See ThreadsafeFn and Threadsafe functions guide.

#Notes

• Callback is a single-call-time handle. It is valid only for the duration of the call that received it. Wrap it in a napi.Ref (via env.createReference) if you want to call it later from the same thread, or in a napi.ThreadsafeFn if you want to call it from another thread.
• A non-function passed where Callback is expected raises TypeError: expected function, got <actual type> before your function runs.
