I want to share my idea for an execSync tailored to this issue. The commands it execs usually are less then 1 second long (run time). Doing it this way, I think I will be able to get the

 1. As far as I know, there is only one module for YAML - "js-yaml". Others unfortunately are incomplete.2. No. Node.js core is just a core, and it's pretty much useless without modules.3.

Re: [nodejs] Re: Good way to store passwords server-side for node apps

Ok, ok... I agree with that, I also hate some of those details! But then: 1) I found far too many modules for YAML, any recomendations? 2) is there a built-in version? I found some confusing comments about that 3) It apears that YAML *can* be more complex than JSON, where can I get some examples

Re: [nodejs] Anonymous Function Return Value

There is no way to synchronously return a value captured by an asynchronous function. Only thing you can do is to change a signature of your function to `function (ProviderCommand, callback)` and call `callback(...)` at the end of the execution chain. (not mentioning coroutines and promises w

Re: [nodejs] Anonymous Function Return Value

That would require an `execSync` which Node doesn't have (yet). You have to do it as a callback. On Sat, Dec 28, 2013 at 11:08 AM, hazl...@gmail.com wrote: > I have a 'require('child_process').exec' call that gives an anonymous > function to capture its output. What I need to do is return this
