Server-Side Javascript-Anyone Using It Or Interested ?


Recommended Posts

While doing some work towards developing mobile apps,and getting to grips with Gnome-shell, my interest in Server-side Javascript has been renewed.

I'm thinking of using it for web-scraping and to gather content from API Services to enrich web site content.

I've specifically been using Node.js and wonder if any other Heliohost members are interested in or already using these technologies.

Also wondering whether it would be acceptable to load node.js to my Heliohost space.

Given that we do not have shell access to our accounts-

( sigh! - though I do understand the reasons)

I anticipate creating a little perl/ CGI harness to launch node and apps using it.

 

Thinking too that perhaps this approach would provide away to use Drush( Drupal's command line interface) on Heliohost'ed sites.

 

Any observations/ pointers/ suggestions would be most welcome.

 

I would have looked through other posts for relevant materials but unfortunately javascript is a forbidden search term . .a little odd for forums largely devoted to programming. .
