I have a working php server on my android tablet, so I hope it's available somehow to run nodejs also. The source code is available on github, and it can be build on linux also, but I can't really understand, how to build it.
Thanks in advance,
Android JS provides Node JS runtime environment, So you can use any 'npm' package in your app.
A full-fledged Node.js for Mobile Apps is a Node. js runtime that runs on Android and iOS, using the V8 JavaScript engine. It is very similar to a Linux build of Node, but with a few platform-specific tweaks and fixes.
Make sure you've first installed the termux-api on your Android device from the Play store. Then install the scripts with apt install termux-api. Finally get this node module: $ npm install --save termux Example usage const api = require('termux') if (!
The instructions for a build are missing from the website:
Download it:
wget http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.8.1/node-v0.8.1.tar.gz
Unpack it:
tar xzf node-v0.8.1.tar.gz
Go to the unpacked folder:
cd node-v0.8.1/
Run
./configure
&& make
&& sudo make install
You might need to install some dependencies like g++
or build-essential
, curl
and libssl-dev
first.
There is also a packaged Android port but it doesn't seem to be actively mantained.
edit: apparently you need to modify some build options according to your device. A google search for "node android" + your model should give you more details. Here are they for the G1 and Galaxy S: http://mitchtech.net/node-js-on-android-linux/
