Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Problem with iToolkit in Node on Windows

I think we mostly want to be able to able to run SQL against DB2 files and call CL/COBOL programs. Other functionality would be great. But these two capabilities are key for us. I'll keep looking around. Plus, I'll get back to Node on the IBM i as well. Cover all of the bases.

Thanks,

Forgot to relay a repo that does an implementation of db2sock in Node.js.
Check it out here: https://bitbucket.org/freschesolutions/db2sock-itoolkit<https://bitbucket.org/freschesolutions/db2sock-itoolkit>

It is only focusing on program calls and not DB2. DB2 will come eventually.

Something to keep a pulse on is this project: https://bitbucket.
org/litmis/db2sock

And read these threads in the Issues:

https://bitbucket.org/litmis/db2sock/issues/1/general-look-feel-of-async<https://bitbucket.org/litmis/db2sock/issues/1/general-look-feel-of-async>
https://bitbucket.org/litmis/db2sock/issues/5/make-connection-using-odbc<https://bitbucket.org/litmis/db2sock/issues/5/make-connection-using-odbc>


FWIW, Ruby is in the same boat. Not sure about Python or PHP.
