Which is best choise from Nape.hx to a CLI language?

[Tiger Chan]

My first choice is Python, but no luck with that. I got an Error in:

class nape_geom_ConvexResultList:

def skipForward(self,times):

if self.zpp_disp:

raise _HxException((("Error: " + "GeomPoly") + " has been disposed and cannot be used!"))

if (not ((self.zpp_inner.vertices is None))):

if (times > 0):

def _hx_local_1():

nonlocal times

                                          ^

Invalid syntax here

Look like you're using Python 2.

Since Haxe outputs only Python 3 code, try to run it with Python 3.

Best,

Andy

Cool, thank you Andy.

Node.js works great with Nape.

Node.js also is a good idea, but would you mind to share more about your case?

[Dion Whitehead Amago]

I use it to run physics simulations (on a backend server) for a game.

Node.js has a bunch of nice features:

1) It's heavily optimized (V8, SpiderMonkey, etc). My crude benchmarks are about half as fast as C++ (IIRC). 

2) It compiles fast (compared to C++).

3) You can run it in the browser and the server

4) You can run it in e.g. https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/ so you don't have to deal with scaling infrastructure

My original plan was to run it in C++ (for speed) on the backend servers, but then it was fast enough. If the game ever gets huge traction, I'll probably go back to C++ for speed, but until then, it's plenty fast enough.

Thanks for your case sharing.I am trying to implement my Node.js and Python server then.
