Re: [nodejs] Running a javascript function in node.js

This is almost definitely a very, very bad idea. Instead of trying to serialise your code into JSON, you can just put it in a regular JavaScript file and require() it. For example, instead of this: // code.json {"myFunction":"function(a) { console.log(a); }"} var code = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSy

They're completely unrelated. You're correct also in your assumption that writes are not (guaranteed to be) atomic. -- Job board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ New group rules: https://gist.github.com/othiym23/9886289#file-moderation-policy-md Old group rules: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mai

[nodejs] node.js and request wait time

These are metrics from your client, so they won't give you a very detailed view into what your server is doing. You'll want to add some instrumentation to your server code to find out when it's doing certain things. A lo-fi version of this would be console.log statements tangled in at various p

Over the last few days I've put together an RPC system that works with any streams2-style object-mode stream. I took a fairly liberal helping of initial inspiration from SubStack's dnode, but ended up taking things in quite a different direction eventually, opting for imitating some of JavaScri

[nodejs] [ANN] jsmc - Minecraft server written in Node

Hey noders! Over the weekend/first part of this week I've started writing a Minecraft server entirely in JavaScript, to experiment with different types of applications in node. It's been surprisingly easy, with the help of a couple of support libraries I wrote for dealing with binary stuff. Ada

At work, I've got a private npm registry set up for deployment of internal modules. While working with it, I found myself doing a lot of `ln -s ~/.npmrcs/work ~/.npmrc` stuff and it was getting a bit cumbersome. In true lazy hacker spirit, I spent a couple of hours writing a tool to do a job th
