Node-spider-script NPM

node-spider-script

Load spider script as any javascript modules under nodeJS runtime.

Overview

Spider is a programming language that compiles to JavaScript. It takes the best ideas of Swift, Python, C# and CoffeeScript.

See spiderlang.org for more information.

Usage

In order to use spider scripts under node, you need to first require this library as follows

require('node-spider-script');

Now you can require your spider files like any other javascript files, for example:

var jsModule = require('./my-test.spider');

var person = jsModule.create('my name');
var output = person.listen('my noise');

In your spider file, instead of doing module.exports, do return to the object you wish to export.

For example:

return {
    create: fn(name) {
        return new Person(name);
    }
};

Full example (Spider):

fn Person(name) {
  this.name = name;

  this.listen = fn (text) {
    return this.name + ' ' + text;
  };
}

return {
    create: fn(name) {
        return new Person(name);
    }
};

Full example (JavaScript):

require('node-spider-script');

var jsModule = require('./my-test.spider');

var person = jsModule.create('my name');
var output = person.listen('my noise');

Installation

In order to use this library, just run the following npm install command:

npm install --save node-spider-script
