New Features:
- NAPI-RS Integration for Tokenizer:
- Implemented the
Tokenizer
class using Rust and integrated it into a Node.js environment via NAPI-RS. - The
Tokenizer
struct, defined innode-napi/src/lib.rs
, provides methods for encoding and decoding text using Rust’s high-performance tokenizers. - This change allows the Rust-based
tokenizers
crate to be exposed as a Node.js module, enabling seamless interaction between Node.js and Rust for efficient text processing.
- Implemented the
Improvements:
- Performance Boost:
- By utilizing NAPI-RS, this integration offers near-native performance for tokenization in Node.js applications.
Developer Experience:
- Cross-Platform Compatibility:
- Node.js developers can now leverage Rust's tokenization capabilities without leaving their JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystem, making it easier to integrate advanced tokenization in web-based or server-side applications.
This release opens up the power of Rust’s tokenizer to Node.js applications, combining speed and efficiency in a cross-language, cross-platform development environment.
