Discussion: Porting to nodejs AsyncLocalStorage

[Souradeep Nanda]

Since node 13 AsyncLocalStorage has been added.

https://nodejs.org/api/async_hooks.html#async_hooks_class_asynclocalstorage

I think we should port to that.

The API looks fairly clean.

Are there any plans to do this? nodejs/node#35286 - seems like this API is much closer to being stable than Async Hooks.

[Aurel Balmosan]

For our project the plain AsyncLocalStorage is enough.

To me it looks like the porting is only useful to keep the cls-hooked API and have an updated npm package to existing projects.

I think actually that the porting will result in just a wrapping of AsyncLocalStorage methods to the cls-hook api names.
