I have a javascript code (business logic) runs on client side, i want the same logic to execute from windows service (C# code), instead of re-writing those complex javascript code to C#, is there any way to execute it from C# class itself. Because i want to run this code inside windows service

  • Do you want to simulate a web browser and run your JavaScript on it? If yes, the Selenium framework might be a good choice Commented Aug 4, 2016 at 16:58
  • No, for example, in javascript i have a different functions which takes the Json data and does lots of business validation and extracts result out of it and dumps into database using REST service, i need the same logig to extract result from json input to run on windows service(scheduled one). Moving this javascript logic to C# will take lots of time and effort for testing. so i'm thinking any is there quick way without re-writing those code in C#, just execute and store the result in db Commented Aug 4, 2016 at 17:05
  • rushfrisby.com/which-net-javascript-engine-is-the-fastest or stackoverflow.com/questions/172753/… may be a starting point... Note that if your JavaScript was not written to run without browser rewriting code in C# may be faster option... Commented Aug 4, 2016 at 17:13

In theory, yes, you can. MicroSoft has released the JS engine behind the Edge browser - Chakra. You can find it on GitHub.

@AlexeiLevenkov: "write one from scratch" - what do you mean? It is already written and you can execute scripts directly...
