Using Node.js modules

Using Node.js modules in your jArchi script

Since jArchi 1.6 you can access your own modules or other Node.js modules

A simple example:

1. In your jArchi scripts folder create a sub-folder named node_modules. This is the parent folder for node modules.
2. In the node_modules folder create a sub-folder named helloworld. This will be the folder for your module.
3. In the helloworld folder create a file called index.js containing this code:

exports.sayHelloWorld = function() {
    window.alert("Hello World!");
}

4. In your jArchi scripts folder create a file called test_module.ajs containing this code:

const speaker = require("helloworld");
speaker.sayHelloWorld();

5. Run the test_module.ajs script
