Not once have I seen a blog post saying "Like Node.js? Then you're going to love Erlang! Let me show you why it's better, with some snippets to compare and contrast."
Given the fact that there already exist bridges that can take javascript snippets and run them in sub-processes within erlang I am really surprised that no one has bothered to do a "enode" system that just provides a node-like api for the callouts to the javascript processes.
- RyanMcGreal 16y agoHow close is couchdb? Couch is written in erlang but communicates over HTTP via JSON.
- querulous 16y agonot very close. couchdb can only run javascript functions on json objects, and really only to transform those objects into other objects. last i checked, it has no way of interacting with the erlang node it's hosted on.
