Re: [IBMiOSS] How to tell the system which version of Node to use

I use shell scripts to set the environment before starting my app. For
example:

---start.sh---
export PATH=/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Node4/bin:$PATH
PORT=80 node app.js

And then put it in a SBMJOB..

SBMJOB JOB(QSH CMD('/path/to/start.sh'))

Yep, it shows v0.12.13. I know node4 is installed. I also know how to
check the version.

So, again I ask, how do I tell my applications (or my system if that's the
right terminology) to use the new version?

Before you start your app you can run:

node -v

From within your app you could try this:

Any other changes to source needed besides that? How do I know if I'm
using the new or old Node version with my application? (not just the

DB2

adapter).

That depends what you mean by "convert". Node4 uses ES6 which has a

number

of new features. With that said, the primary thing you need to be

aware

of

is the changed path of the DB2 adapter. Going off of memory...

Node v0.12.x
var db = require('/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/Node/os400/db2i/lib/db2')

Node v4.x
var db =

require('/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/OPS/Node4/os400/db2i/lib/db2')

Just looking through my system I see I have Node4 installed.

Is there a "simple" way to convert my apps done with the old

version

to

use

the new version?
