LiveCode Forums.

Anyone used LiveCode with Node.js
I can run what I want in MacOS terminal
Using the Shell command from LivecCode does not work
I can "open process" to launch node (making sure I have the right path)
but I can NOT "write to process"
and of course I can't see what is happening, because
"hideConsoleWindows" .."has no effect on Mac OS or Unix systems."

Dictionary says
On OS X systems, you can use the open process command to start up an application, but not a Unix process. To work with a Unix process, use the shell func instead.

any suggestions?
should I write out a file, then execute it?
thanks

Hi,

Please, post a Node.js example and your scripts. That might give someone a clue of what you're really trying to do and why it doesn't work.

Kind regards,

Mark
