Node Compat for WebTorrent in Deno

[x7NFKCgJ]

Deno v1.27.0 on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS

I am trying to run WebTorrent in Deno using the following command:
deno run --allow-env --allow-ffi --allow-net --allow-read --allow-sys --unstable ./wt.js download 0E876CE2A1A504F849CA72A5E2BC07347B3BC957

Content of wt.js:
import "npm:webtorrent-cli/bin/cmd.js";

It produces the following error:
deno: symbol lookup error: /home/user/.cache/deno/npm/registry.npmjs.org/utp-native/2.5.3/prebuilds/linux-x64/node.napi.node: undefined symbol: uv_timer_init

uv_timer_init appears to be from libuv, which Node uses: https://docs.libuv.org/en/v1.x/timer.html

It works on the same system using Node. Is it currently possible to make this work with Deno?

libuv API won't work with Deno. libuv is Node.js' event loop implementation. Node-API already provides async_work and thread_safe_functions that work with Deno. I'd recommend creating an issue to remove libuv usage from webtorrent-cli.

deno: symbol lookup error: /home/kay/Desktop/temp/ws/simple/node_modules/.deno/wrtc@0.4.7/node_modules/wrtc/build/Release/wrtc.node: undefined symbol: uv_is_closing

same error on wrtc module.
