East Node

Node.js platform integration for the East language

East Node provides Node.js platform functions for the East language. It enables East programs to interact with the filesystem, network, databases, and other I/O operations in Node.js environments.

Packages

Package	Description	npm
@elaraai/east-node-std	Core platform functions (filesystem, console, fetch, crypto, etc.)
@elaraai/east-node-io	I/O platform functions (SQL, NoSQL, S3, FTP, etc.)

Features

east-node-std:

• FileSystem - Read/write files, manage directories
• Console - stdout/stderr output, stdin input
• Fetch - HTTP requests with modern Fetch API
• Crypto - Random bytes, SHA-256, UUID generation
• Random - 14 statistical distributions (uniform, normal, poisson, etc.)
• Time - Timestamps and sleep
• Path - Cross-platform path manipulation
• Test - Built-in testing utilities

east-node-io:

• SQL - SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL
• NoSQL - MongoDB, Redis
• Storage - S3 and S3-compatible object storage
• Transfer - FTP and SFTP file transfers
• Formats - CSV, XML, XLSX parsing

Quick Start

npm install @elaraai/east-node-std @elaraai/east

import { East } from "@elaraai/east";
import { Console, FileSystem, NodePlatform } from "@elaraai/east-node-std";

const MyProgram = East.function([], NullType, ($) => {
    // Write to console
    $(Console.log("Hello from East!"));

    // Read a file
    const content = $.let(FileSystem.readFile("./data.txt"));
    $(Console.log(content));
});

// Execute the program
await NodePlatform(MyProgram, []);

Development

npm install        # Install all workspace dependencies
npm run build      # Build all packages
npm run test       # Run tests for all packages
npm run lint       # Lint all packages
