Before marking this question as a duplicate , I must state that I am aware of the other posts that transform a buffer in an array of buffers (I have been trying virtually every thread's comments on this , but is not what Im looking for).
I am using Node's child process to run a python script .The script returns a list in the form of :
[["a","21","67"],["b","22","69"]]
As per the Node child process docs , the result is UTF8 encoded. The problem is that whenever I try with textDecoder :
const response=new TextDecoder(data).decode(data);
or with regex:
var response = data.toString()
var ressult= a.match(/\d+/g);
None of them (and many variations of them that I have tried) work as I expect. Ultimately , I just want to get a javascript array ( [["a","21","67"],["b","22","69"]] ) so that I can perform functions on it(or , in other words, the list returned from the python script itself).Thank you !
Edit:
This is my child process:
const { spawn } = require('child_process');
const pyProg= spawn(`${srcDirectory}/venv/Scripts/python.exe`,[`${srcDirectory}/optimization/optimizationFunction.py`]);
pyProg.stdout.on('data', function(data) {
console.log(data.toString())
});
And this is what is logged by data.toString():
[['r1', '1e45200a-f990-4fda-a76b-b00fa05d9f53', 200.0], ['r2', '1e45200a-f990-4fda-a76b-b00fa05d9f53', 199.9999999999999], ['r1', '1ea3890a-f990-4fda-a76b-b00fa05d9f53', 0.0], ['r2', '1ea3890a-f990-4fda-a76b-b00fa05d9f53', 0.0]]
This is what console.log(data) logs:

Additionally, this is what typeof data.toString() returns :
string
string
string
string
string
string
string
string
string
string
string
I'm not 100% sure if I got you right here, but it sounds like the output from Python is already present when you access it. However, when you got your data it's a string first that needs to be parsed to a JavaScript Array.
Try
let myArray = JSON.parse(result);
to see, if the array is afterwards what you expected.

Trying to write a script to dump my MongoDB to afterwards restore it in a Test database again.
const {spawn} = require('child_process');
const backupDB = spawn('C:\\_Apps\\mongo\\bin\\mongodump.exe', [
'--host', 'localhost',
'--port', '27019',
'--collection', 'ops',
'--db', 'prod',
'--out', "C:\\_Apps"],
{shell: true}
);
backupDB.stdout.on('data', (data) => {
console.log(data.toString());
});
backupDB.stderr.on('data', (data) => {
console.log('Error: ', data);
});
backupDB.stderr.on('close', (code) => {
console.log('Exit Code: ', code);
Weirdly the script does what it is supposed to (I can find the output BSON under the specified location), but the output is cryptic:

That output is just encoded text.
Try this to see the real output:
backupDB.stderr.on('data', (data) => {
console.log('Error: ', data.toString('ascii'));
});

You can decode it like this:
backupDB.stdout.on('data', (data) => {
console.log(Buffer.from(data).toString());
});
Inside toString() you can provide any encoding you want
I am using node-Red the function.
I have got a string like this one:
{"txpk":{"imme":false,"tmst":145559484,"freq":869.525,"rfch":0,"powe":27,"modu":"LORA","datr":"SF9BW125","codr":"4/5","ipol":true,"size":17,"data":"YA0iASalAAADMf8AAbKwI3I="}}
This is the message. The payload is coming in the function block.
All I want is to add some Bytes in front of the string:
buf = new Buffer('buff');
buf1 = new Buffer ('0000');
buf[0]=0x02;
buf[1]=0xbd;
buf[2]=0x45;
buf[3]=0x03;
buf1= msg.payload;
msg.payload = buf+buf1;
return [null,msg];
The result is als follows writing in hex:
02 EF BF BD 45 03 7B 22 74 78 70 6B 22 3A 7B 22 69 6D 6D 65 22 3A 66 61 6C 73 65 2C 22 74 6D 73 74 22 3A 31 34 35 35 35 39 34 38 34 2C 22 66 72 65 71 22 3A 38 36 39 2E 35 32 35 2C 22 72 66 63 68 22 3A 30 2C 22 70 6F 77 65 22 3A 32 37 2C 22 6D 6F 64 75 22 3A 22 4C 4F 52 41 22 2C 22 64 61 74 72 22 3A 22 53 46 39 42 57 31 32 35 22 2C 22 63 6F 64 72 22 3A 22 34 2F 35 22 2C 22 69 70 6F 6C 22 3A 74 72 75 65 2C 22 73 69 7A 65 22 3A 31 37 2C 22 64 61 74 61 22 3A 22 59 41 30 69 41 53 61 6C 41 41 41 44 4D 66 38 41 41 62 4B 77 49 33 49 3D 22 7D 7D 22 3B 0A
Instead of :
02 BD 45 03
I see at the first bytes:
02 EF BF BD 45 03
Could anyone explain what I did wrong?
You are trying to join a Buffer object with a String - which is the cause of your problem. It is better to convert the String to a Buffer then use Buffer.concat() to join them:
buf = new Buffer('buff');
buf1 = new Buffer (msg.payload);
buf[0]=0x02;
buf[1]=0xbd;
buf[2]=0x45;
buf[3]=0x03;
msg.payload = Buffer.concat([buf, buf1]);
return [null,msg];

I am running this code, which should compare saved webpages with the current live versions, but it seems to only do so for the last entry:
ipcMain.on('compare', (event, arg) => {
index.find({
"type": "website"
}, function(err, docs) {
var doc;
var data;
for (i = 0; i < docs.length; i++) {
console.log(doc = docs[i]);
console.log(i);
request('GET', doc.URL).done(function(res) {
data = fs.readFileSync(DataPath + "/savedpages/" + doc.Name + ".html");
console.log(data);
console.log(res.getBody())
if (data == res.getBody()) {
index.update({
_id: doc.ID
}, {
$set: {
Changes: false
}
}, function(err, updateval) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(doc.Name);
event.sender.send('update-false', doc.Name + "-changescell")
})
} else {
index.update({
_id: doc.ID
}, {
$set: {
Changes: true
}
}, function(err, updateval) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(doc.Name);
event.sender.send('update-true', doc.Name + "-changescell")
})
}
})
}
})
})
The output looks like this:

It seems to me that the code skips a part of the code while the for loop is running. I don't understand why it is behaving as such.
this is because you are running async code in a loop.
To overcome this you need to create a closure by wrapping the async code in a function:
for(i = 0; i < docs.length; i++){
console.log(doc = docs[i]);
console.log(i);
runAsyncCode(doc)
}
function runAsyncCode(doc){
request('GET', doc.URL).done(function(res) {
data = fs.readFileSync(DataPath + "/savedpages/" + doc.Name + ".html");
console.log(data);
console.log(res.getBody())
if(data == res.getBody()){
index.update({_id: doc.ID}, {$set: {Changes:false}}, function(err, updateval){
if(err) throw err;
console.log(doc.Name);
event.sender.send('update-false', doc.Name + "-changescell")
})
} else {
index.update({_id: doc.ID}, {$set: {Changes:true}}, function(err, updateval){
if(err) throw err;
console.log(doc.Name);
event.sender.send('update-true', doc.Name + "-changescell")
})
}
})
}
I am using AJAX POST data to server which use Node.js code. Very briefly, two file in this test project. Here is main.html:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<script>
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('POST', '/', true);
xhr.send('hello');
</script>
</body>
</html>
Here the server code:
const http = require('http');
http.createServer(function(req,res) {
console.log(req.body);
}).listen(3000);
Perhaps,you have known that server will console.log() 'undefined'.
So the question is why it's 'undefined'? How to get AJAX data on server?
I know other solution according to this question.
Could you help me any other way to get data conveniently?
You've created server allright, but there's two problems:
Connection endpoint. Your AJAX is POST, so you need to parse POST requests correctly (not exactly solves your issue, but you need to distinguish request methods).
Node.js is not parsing your POST body by default, you need to tell it how it's done, by using querystring module, for example.
Combining this together:
var qs = require('querystring');
http.createServer(function(req, res) {
if (request.method == 'POST') {
var body = '';
request.on('data', function(data) {
body += data;
});
request.on('end', function() {
var post = qs.parse(body);
// Use your POST here
console.log(post);
});
}
}).listen(3000);
JSON data - cleaner solution:
You need to encode your AJAX data with JSON, and than parse it on the server side like this:
http.createServer(function(req,res) {
if (req.method == 'POST') {
var jsonPost = '';
req.on('data', function(data) {
jsonPost += data;
});
req.on('end', function() {
var post = JSON.parse(jsonPost);
// Use your POST here
console.log(post);
});
}
}).listen(3000);
You'd be even better off using Express.js framework for that, with it's bodyParser module.
UPDATE - How chunks are buffered:
Consider simple example - send in xhr.send() a LARGE amount of text, that exceeds Content-Length. Than do the following on data event:
req.on('data', function(data) {
console.log(data);
body += data;
});
You will see something like:
<Buffer 0a 0a 4c 6f 72 65 6d 20 69 70 73 75 6d 20 64 6f 6c 6f 72 20 73 69 74 20 61 6d 65 74 2c 20 63 6f 6e 73 65 63 74 65 74 75 72 20 61 64 69 70 69 73 63 69 ... >
<Buffer 65 74 20 71 75 61 6d 20 63 6f 6e 67 75 65 20 6c 6f 62 6f 72 74 69 73 2e 20 50 65 6c 6c 65 6e 74 65 73 71 75 65 20 74 65 6d 70 75 73 20 75 6c 6c 61 6d ... >
<Buffer 61 2e 20 56 69 76 61 6d 75 73 20 76 69 74 61 65 20 61 6e 74 65 20 6d 65 74 75 73 2e 20 4d 61 75 72 69 73 20 71 75 69 73 20 61 6c 69 71 75 65 74 20 65 ... >
That shows that the data received in chunks on data event. Only on end event you will get the whole data sent (if you've aggregated it before that). Node.js doesn't handle this, that's why you need third-party modules.
That is - you cannot just get req.body of the request, as it wasn't set at all.
I am implementing websocket v07 server protocol in C/C++. It's pretty easy and I have almost coded it. Though I can't understand what mean numbers in first initial packet (not handshake)? Client uses "socket.io" framework. So client sends Date and server answer with another number. I think its something like checksum. Can anyone explain me please how to generate answer and what does it mean?
Examples:
client GET./socket.io/1/?t=1322647367092&jsonp=0
server 52 io.j[0]("1880965230667822746 :15:25:websocket,htmlfile,xhr-polling,jsonp-polling");
client GET./socket.io/1/?t=1322647141334&jsonp=0
server 52 io.j[0]("7826289221657265491 :15:25:websocket,htmlfile,xhr-polling,jsonp-polling");
1322647367092 - Date, server answer - 1880965230667822746
1322647141334 - Date, server answer - 7826289221657265491

It is a "session ID" according to the socket.io protocol specification:
The body of the response should contain the session id (sid) given to the client, followed by the heartbeat timeout, the connection closing timeout, and the list of supported transports separated by :
