scriptcs for edge!

edge-scs

What is it

edge-scs is an extension for edge that allows invoking scriptcs from node.js.

Hello edge-scs

Below is a simple snippet of using scriptcs from edge

var edge = require('edge');
var hello = edge.func('scs', function() {/*
static object Invoke(string s) {
    return s;
}
*/});
hello("Hello from scriptcs", function(error,result) {
    if (error) throw error;
    console.log(result);
});  

edge-scs's Issues

Autofac.Configuration.dll is 'blocked'

Since there is no npm module, I just dropped the built code straight into node_modules. Running a simple example doesn't work right away, it spits out this nasty message:

System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'EdgeCompiler' threw an exception. ---> System.NotSupportedException: An attempt was made to load an assembly from a network location which would have caused the assembly to be sandboxed in previous versions of the .NET Framework. This release of the .NET Framework does not enable CAS policy by default, so this load may be dangerous. If this load is not intended to sandbox the assembly, please enable the loadFromRemoteSources switch. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=155569 for more information.

Which basically says that one or more of the assemblies being loaded is "blocked" and needs to be unblocked. I found that the "Autofac.Configuration.dll" seemed to be the only blocked assembly. Unblocked it and everything started to work.

Upgrade to use scriptcs 0.10.2

@richorama I am working on this now. Due to all the changes in the codebase it turned out to be more than a simple upgrade....

Publish to npm

If everything goes well with upgrading to use 0.10.2, the next step is npm publish :-)

Fix loading of script packs

Support for mono

I just tried the latest scriptcs on linux/mono and it works, but the edge-scs bridge appears to be pre-mono scriptcs support.

#r cannot find assemblies in /bin, must specify path "./bin/{assembly}"

In scriptcs I can use #r "{assembly}" and it will resolve assemblies in the ./bin directory relative to the executing script. However in edge-scs this is not true. The #r directive in the scripts imported via #load must specify a path such as #r "./bin/{assembly}".
