I want to send to python a node.js variable, modify it with python and resend it to node.js, that is an example of my codes: Python
def change_input(variable):
variable*=5
#now send variable to node.js
Now the js code:
var variable=prompt("enter the variable");
#after the code was sended to thd python code, modified and resend:
document.write(variable)
How to circulates the variables between python and javascript?
Here is one way to do it, by spawning a child python process from within node.
test.js:
const { spawn } = require('child_process');
const p = spawn('python', ['yourscript.py', '1']);
p.stdout.on('data', (data) => {
console.log(`stdout: ${data}`);
});
yourscript.py
import sys
def change_var(x):
print('hello from python: {:d}'.format(int(x) + 2))
change_var(sys.argv[1])
output of running node ./test.js:
stdout: hello from python: 4
