Follow-up to the browser/cloud/threading sweep — everything that was guarding
against unreachable runtimes is now dead.
cacheManager.ts: Environment enum + this.environment field removed (only NODE
was reachable). StorageType narrowed to MEMORY + FILESYSTEM. navigator.deviceMemory
and performance.memory paths in detectOptimalCacheSize + detectAvailableMemory
deleted; node:os is the sole source. environmentConfig keeps the index signature
for future per-runtime tuning but only the node slot is wired.
Dead 'typeof window === undefined' guards (the check is always true on 8.0):
paramValidation, structuredLogger, mutex, brainy.ts stats block, and
networkTransport ws-dynamic-import all collapsed. IntegrationLoader's inverse
guard ('!== undefined' returning 'browser') deleted. mutex's createMutex default
type simplified from "(typeof window === 'undefined' ? 'file' : 'memory')" to
plain 'file'.
Redundant TextEncoder/TextDecoder polyfills: Node 22+ ships both as globals.
src/utils/textEncoding.ts deleted (applyTensorFlowPatch was named for a defunct
dep and only re-assigned globals already present). setup.ts collapsed to an
empty stable import target. unified.ts loses its applyTensorFlowPatch re-export.
modelAutoConfig.getModelPath() loses the unreachable trailing fallback now
that isNode() is effectively the only branch the function ever takes.
jsonProcessing.ts left unchanged — its 'typeof document' checks are value-shape
guards on the parsed JSON, not environment detection.
- Remove top-level Node.js imports that break bundlers
- Use universal adapters for crypto operations
- Add dynamic imports for Node.js-specific modules
- Add browser field to package.json for bundler hints
- Maintain full Node.js functionality while enabling browser usage
This allows Brainy to be used with modern bundlers (Vite, Webpack, etc.)
without requiring Node.js polyfills. Browser environments get core features
while Node.js retains all capabilities including filesystem and networking.
- Updated all fs, path, crypto, os, url, util, events, http, https, net, child_process, stream, and zlib imports
- Changed both static imports and dynamic imports to use node: protocol
- This makes Brainy more bundler-friendly by explicitly marking Node.js built-ins
- Prevents bundlers from attempting to polyfill or bundle these modules
- Reduces bundle size for web applications using Brainy
- Improves tree-shaking and dead code elimination
Benefits for external bundlers:
- Clear distinction between Node.js built-ins and external dependencies
- No ambiguity about what needs polyfilling
- Smaller bundles for browser builds
- Better compatibility with modern bundlers (Webpack 5, Vite, Rollup, esbuild)
