Hi Everyone! This edition includes a massive list of changes that have been worked on in the last weeks in Fastify and Pino. Thanks to our fantastic community, we have been able to ship all this work! This edition also feature a few articles covering OSS sustainability, Remix, and a few other very interesting takes. Enjoy!
This week I will be speaking at JS Poland about Fastify! Tune in at:

We have recently added the go-to guide for Prototype Poisoning to Fastify docs. This is an old article from Eran Hammer. It is a must read for all JS developers.
The following is an article written by Eran Hammer. It is reproduced here for posterity with permission. It has been reformatted from the original HTML source to Markdown source, but otherwise remains the same.

fastify-cli@2.15.0 include a new test helper that was developed by Manuel Spigolon. Check it out:

As with every new releases, our users have found a significant regression in fast-json-stringify v3 (which will be part of Fastify v4): a memory leak due to some internal changes in Ajv. Fellow collaborator Mohamed Edrah diagnosed the problem and fixed it fairly quickly with a brilliant solution that also yield significant performance increase for that use case.

Checklist
run npm run test and npm run benchmark
tests and/or benchmarks are included
documentation is changed or added
commit message and code follows the Developer’s Certification of Origin
and the Code of conduct
Uses ajv.addSchema to load all validation schemas while building the code instead of serializing the schema to an object literal that is eventually passed ajv.validate.
Could fix the memory leak discussed in #379

A few weeks ago, AWS shipped a new feature that enables Lamba Functions written in JavaScript to leverage the asynchronous initialization of ESM modules to massively reduce cold start for lambdas with provisioned capacity (-94%). Check it out:

Have you ever heard of Turborepo? It’s an all-in-one solution to reduce the install time of modules in monorepos. Interestingly, they were acquired by Vercel which made the client Open Source while there is a server counterpart that is so proprietary. Fastify collaborator Maksim recently built an open source version of it using your favorite framework… check it out!

Fastify v3.26.0 is out! We have a few new features, including a typescript regression fix, better support for the plugin names and many docs updates and other fixes.

Shortly after Fastify v3.26.0 was released, I realized I released too soon as the PR from James Sumners got finished. This change add a new option to Fastify to make the .close method automatically destroy all connected sockets. This behavior is very useful because it allows a very quick shutdown of the server. It’s not enabled by default because it introduces some overhead when in use. Check it out:

This new feature was then released as the only change in v3.27.0. Integers are cheap, so I just released a new minor version straight away. You can safely skip v3.26.0.

Following up on a huge demand from Jest users, we added a sync flag to pino-pretty so it could be configured to make all its logging synchronous. Why it benefits Jest? Because it tracks all open handles and any asynchronous logging would result in a warning ⚠️. Enjoy!

We shipped the above new feature together with the additional prettifiers metadata https://github.com/pinojs/pino-pretty/pull/283 and many others

Last but not least, we landed a change adding multi wildcard support to fast-redact, the library that pino uses to perform data redaction (it’s critical for managing private data according to the various laws). Enjoy:

First - thanks for all the efforts already put in this project and also the PR with I`am picking up! 2nd - I hope I have picked up the prior work correctly, please tell me if I take a wrong path here. (Followed the suggested manual: https://gist.github.com/jsumners/461ef7a64545108635cc437fde112721) I´ve worked on finishing the multi-wildcard feature #36 with the missing test-coverage. hope we can bring this feature to life!

The well-known log4j security vulnerability of December 2021 triggered a lot of renewed discussions around software supply chain security, and sometimes it has also been said to be an Open Source related issue.

If you have not heard about Remix, it’s a new React metaframework that is taking over all the buzz in the JS world. Here is a long comparison with Next.js. Read up:

Easily the biggest question we get asked is something like: How is Remix different from Next.js?
