run node js from UI5 in HANA XSA

[rajarshi_muhuri]

normally node programs are run using the "start": "node server.js" which is found in the package.json file .

how can I run a node program on demand that will be triggered from button click of a sapui5 screen

[junwu]

why? what is your scenario?

[rajarshi_muhuri]

I have a node program to (based on schedule) run stored procedures , for some application logic and doing multi -table joins /lookups , updates and inserts and finally posting the results to a external API.

we also want the same to be run on demand instead of a schedule . And we this , so user can visit a website and on click of the button execute an almost similar node program

[junwu]

you just call a node js service, why you have to start a nodejs on demand?

[rajarshi_muhuri]

I am not that familiar with node js very much , so what do you mean call node service ?

[junwu]

your node js server will be started by xsa ("node server.js")

you just have to call the service hosted by that server, you don't have to(should not) trigger "node server.js" from your ui5 app.
