[question] embedded Node.js

[paulvi]

Came when reading https://github.com/angelozerr/angularjs-eclipse/wiki/Getting-Started

How embedded Node.js can be used?
What version is included, and how often will it be updated?

Would it be easy to call all node.js features?

As tern.js is written in Javascript, tern must be executed in a Javascript engine. I have tried to execute tern.js in Rhino but it's too slowly and I have every time OutOfMemory.

Marijn suggested me to execute Tern with node.js and write an HTTP Java client which call the node.js server which execute tern.

Some people have not installed node.js, so I decided to provide embed node.js for each OS to avoid installing node.js. Embed node.js is very limitated :

• it cannot be updated
• it is linked to tern.js, on other words you can just execute tern.js with embed node.js

Embed node.js version are the last I have found today : v0.10.22.

Providing embed node.js to execute any js, is out of the scope of Tern IDE I think, but more for nodeclipse.

I close this issue.

Actually this issue should have been in tern.java project.
