[Node-opcua](https://node-opcua.github.io/) is the OPC-UA stack running on NodeJS.

Why NodeJS ?

Because NodeJs is a great framework for designing high-performing asynchronous applications.

## Getting started

### installing node-opcua as a node package

$ mkdir mytest
$ cd mytest
$ npm init
$ npm install node-opcua --unsafe-perms
$ # Create your first app.js file!

### installing node-opcua samples as a node package

```shell
$ mkdir myserver
$ cd myserver
$ npm init
$ npm install node-opcua-samples --unsafe-perms
$ ./node_modules/.bin/simple_server
```

or

```shell
$ ./node_modules/.bin/simple_client -e "opc.tcp://opcserver.mAutomation.net:4841" -n="ns=1;s=EVR2.system.RTC_SEC"
```
or

```shell
$ ./node_modules/.bin/simple_client -e "opc.tcp://opcuademo.sterfive.com:26543"
```

## Minimum Nodejs requirement
