Sample Laserfiche Nodejs Rule script project

Sample javascript scripts that can be invoked from Laserfiche workflow or business process.

Scripts are invoked by Laserfiche Remote Agent which is a service installed on a Windows PC for this purpose.

• nodejs 16 LTS or later
• Visual Studio Code v1.80 or later
• A Laserfiche Cloud Account
• Creating a Node.js Script Documentation

Build and Test script

This project is using NPM workspaces to setup a mono-repo with multiple packages. Please refer to the documentation for more details.

• Install: npm install -w source/ -w utility/
• Test: npm test -w source/ -w utility/
• Build: npm run build -w source/

• Remote Agents Documentation

Sample Projects

• Template Nodejs Script Rule
• Distance between two zipcodes

Note for bundling

• In all the sample packages, we are using rollup to bundle all the code (include internal and external dependencies) into a single file. This is not required, but it makes it easier to deploy the code to the remote agent.
• You can also copy the folder of source code package into remote agent and manually install the dependencies using npm install command.
• Remote agent only cares the target script file, and it expects the deployment step to ensure the target script is executable during invocation time.
