connect to a socket REPL

[velkyel]

is it possible to add connect to a socket REPL feature like in inf-clojure, please?
There is possible to define inf-clojure-program like cons pair ("localhost" . 5555).

what's socket REPL?

[velkyel]

do you know emacs commint file?

[redguardtoo]

No. Do you mean comint? What's the advantage to start a socket REPL?

[velkyel]

comint, sorry. "socket REPL" is now known name?

[velkyel]

Advantage? Running game with embedded js vm. Toying, scripting, debugging.

[redguardtoo]

How can I do that in NodeJS? Can you show me some prototype?

[velkyel]

like this:

var net = require('net');

var server = net.createServer(function(socket) {
    socket.setEncoding('utf8');
    socket.on('data', function(data) {
        var res = eval(data);
        socket.end(res.toString());
    });
});

server.listen(8000);

and run-js localhost:8000 in emacs.

I don't know nodejs too much -- actually I'd like to use js-comint mode to connect to my running app with embedded duktape (duktape.org) vm. This app listen and eval incoming data like example server.
