Should I Disable path

We don't need to disable the path length limit.

Just make sure to keep our folder names and file
names less than 260 characters long, which is easy.
But, if you plan on using long names, disable the limit.

makes coding easy, since we can use the data

but, it is also less descriptive, of functions source!

pip is the python package installer.

We will use pip to install a package named

pyinstaller

pyinstaller is a package we use to make our .exe

What if pip is NOT working?

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
As you can see,
pip is not working.
When we first installed Python,
the CHECKBOX should have been checked
for Add Python 3.9 to PATH!
Add Python 3.9 to PATH

There are multiple ways to fix this issue.

An easy way is to uninstall Python and reinstall,
this time with the Path checkbox marked.
Or we could change the environment variable.

This script imports the script from the
previous page named ourDateLibrary.py
Make sure both scripts are in the same folder!
If we write true, it keeps getting
date & time output:
dateAndTime("true") 03/30/2022 17:06:17
03/30/2022 17:06:18
If we write anything else, 03/30/2022 17:06:19
such as 03/30/2022 17:06:20
03/30/2022 17:06:21
dateAndTime("false")
it will only get the output:
date and time once. 03/30/2022 17:06:22

How to Activate

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
a Nodejs script
with a
Python Script

College of Scripting Music & Science

 Christopher Topalian

nodejs
Note: To use nodejs,
we must have nodejs

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
installed on our computer.
We make sure to first install
nodejs, before doing the
next tutorials.

https://nodejs.org/en/download/

College of Scripting Music & Science

 Christopher Topalian

We install the Naked package

to be able to activate
nodejs scripts using python

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
pip install Naked

We will then be able to double click

on our python script named runIt.pyw
to activate our nodejs script named simple.js

runIt.pyw simple.js test.txt

College of Scripting Music & Science
 Christopher Topalian

We run this python script to activate

our nodejs script by name
from Naked.toolshed.shell import muterun_js

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
theResponse = muterun_js('simple.js')

We save this python script as runIt.pyw

so that when we double click on the script,
no console window will appear.
The next page shows the nodejs script
named simple.js that will be activated.
We make sure that the python script and
the nodejs script are in the same folder.

College of Scripting Music & Science

 Christopher Topalian

We save this nodejs script as

simple.js
Make sure this nodejs script is in the same
folder as the python activator script.

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
const fs = require('fs')

let ourText = 'Hi Everyone'

fs.writeFile('test.txt', ourText, function(err)

{
if (err) {
console.error(err)
return nodejs
} script
console.log("Works good");
saved as
}) simple.js
College of Scripting Music & Science
 Christopher Topalian

The Naked package makes it so

we can activate our nodejs scripts
by
double clicking on our

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
python script in the folder.
If we didn't use the
python Naked package,
to run our nodejs script,
we would have instead had to open
the command prompt
and then type
node nameOfOurScript.js
and then press Enter
College of Scripting Music & Science
 Christopher Topalian
Gets the name of the nodejs file in the
folder and activates it
from Naked.toolshed.shell import muterun_js

import os

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
path =
os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

for folder, subfolder, ourFiles in os.walk(path):

for file in ourFiles:
if(file.endswith(".js")):
print(os.path.join(folder,file))
thePath = os.path.join(folder,file)
theResponse = muterun_js(thePath)

We save this script as runIt.pyw

so that no console window will appear.
College of Scripting Music & Science
 Christopher Topalian

Now when we double click the

python script named runIt.pyw
it will activate the nodejs script
named simple.js

COLLEGEOFSCRIPTING.WEEBLY.COM
runIt.pyw simple.js test.txt

In this case, our nodejs script

makes a text file called test.txt
