A Python 3 to Node.js + vm2 binding, helps you execute JavaScript safely.
vm2
---
`vm2 `__ is a node module to create **real** sandbox in node. The official node API `vm `__, can only create isolate context and doesn't prevent harmful code to damage your computer.
How it works
------------
The module launchs a Node.js REPL server, which can be communicated with JSON. All JavaScript code are encoded in JSON and sent to the server. After the server executing the code in vm2, the result is sent back to Python.
Install
-------
You need Node.js.
https://nodejs.org/
Install node_vm2 from pypi wheel.
.. code-block::
pip install node_vm2
Also make sure you have ``node`` executable in ``PATH``, or you can specify the executable with environment variable ``NODE_EXECUTABLE``.
Additionally, you will need ``npm`` to build node_vm2 from source.
Usage
-----
Most of the APIs are bound to `vm2 `__.
Simple eval:
.. code-block:: python
from node_vm2 import eval
print(eval("['foo', 'bar'].join()"))
Use VM:
.. code-block:: python
from node_vm2 import VM
with VM() as vm:
vm.run("""
var sum = 0, i;
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) sum += i;
""")
print(vm.run("sum"))
Use NodeVM:
.. code-block:: python
from node_vm2 import NodeVM
js = """exports.greet = name => console.log(`Hello ${name}!`);"""
with NodeVM.code(js) as module:
module.call_member("greet", "John")
It is possible to do async task with Promise:
.. code-block:: python
from datetime import datetime
from node_vm2 import NodeVM
js = """
exports.test = () => {
return new Promise(resolve => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve("hello")
}, 3000);
});
};
"""
with NodeVM.code(js) as module:
print(datetime.now())
print(module.call_member("test"))
print(datetime.now())
If you like to allow the VM to crash your server (e.g. ``process.exit()``), you should create the VM in a separate server so it won't affect other VMs:
.. code-block:: python
from node_vm2 import VMServer, VM
with VMServer() as server:
with VM(server=server) as vm:
# now the vm is created in a new server
print(vm.run("1 + 2 + 3"))
