AsyncLocalStorage without `node:async_hooks`

I'm trying to remove dependencies on node: in a Deno project. I just came across https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/48528 and I'm wondering if it could unlock AsyncLocalStorage without a dependency on node:async_hooks for Deno. I am having a bit of a hard time following the various PRs/Github issues, but I also found some fairly recent work that seems related: https://github.com/denoland/deno/pull/25140 https://github.com/denoland/deno/pull/24402

We are switching to ContinuationPreservedEmbedderData. This allows adding async context tracking to the various async operations that deno provides. Fixes: #7010 Fixes: #22886 Fixes: #24368

Deno's ALS doesn't use async_hooks, but it's still exported from that module

I see. Given that, is there another way to import Deno's AsyncLocalStorage other than through node:async_hooks? Particularly, I am interested in avoiding deno_emit errors related to using node:

Not really no, it's the only way

OK, I think that'll be a blocker for my use case... as a workaround, if it is possible already to host a private instance of JSR, that could also work.

Yeah you can host private instance But then you will have to override all calls to jsr: in Deno - ie all jsr: dependencies would be pulled from your instance, you can route some of them to public one and others to your private one (like .npmrc file does for npm) You'd need to set JSR_URL env var to override the URL used
