How to run the java script functions using .net library class?

Question

I have the JavaScript string for calculating some formulas, but I need to execute the scripts from C#.

Like JS formula string:

function(params) {
  var itemAmount = 0,
      itemsList = JSON.stringify(params.items),
      billAmount = 0,
      itemDiscountAmount = 0,
      itemDiscountPercentage = 0,
      maxDiscountAmount = 0, 
      maxDiscountPercentage = params.maxDiscountPercentage;
  return {
    billAmount: billAmount,
    maxDiscountPercentage: maxDiscountPercentage,
    maxDiscountAmount: maxDiscountAmount
  };
});

I need to pass the param and get the result using C#.

Also, I have tried using Microsoft.JScript.Vsa. But in this case, I am unable to perform JSON. Parse operations — Ravisankar Mani

@SamvelPetrosov , Actually, this js formula are stored in DB to execute various calculations. It will help for different platforms — Ravisankar Mani

Why can't you do this in C#? Assuming there is a good reason to use js in C#, have you thought about using Jurassic? github.com/paulbartrum/jurassic — lostlain

@lostlain The Jurrasic libs is very useful and working fine. Thanks for your suggestion. — Ravisankar Mani

Maybe you are looking for a JavaScript Engine like this:

        var es = JsEngineSwitcher.Instance;
        es.EngineFactories.AddChakraCore();
        es.DefaultEngineName = ChakraCoreJsEngine.EngineName;
        var je = es.CreateDefaultEngine();

        je.EmbedHostType("console", typeof(Console));
        je.Execute("console.WriteLine('HELLO CHAKRA')");

And this should work for your :

        je.Execute("function foo(a,b,c){return a+b*c;};");
        je.CallFunction<int>("foo", 1, 2, 3);

BTW, if you need JSON in your code, this can be of help:

The JavaScript sample is not using most of the variables, and is same as :

function(params) {
  return {
    billAmount: 0,
    maxDiscountPercentage: params.maxDiscountPercentage,
    maxDiscountAmount: 0
  };
});

Which in C# is something similar to anonymous function :

new Func<dynamic, dynamic>(params => new {
    billAmount = 0,
    maxDiscountPercentage = params.maxDiscountPercentage,
    maxDiscountAmount = 0
});
