AppleScript Execution from Node.js

library 2.1.0 ·javascript maintenance
verified Jun 17, 2026

node-osascript is a utility library for Node.js that enables the execution of AppleScript code directly from JavaScript. It facilitates bidirectional communication by allowing JavaScript variables to be injected into AppleScript and by transforming AppleScript results (lists, records, dates, numbers, booleans, strings) into their corresponding JavaScript data types using PEG.js. The current stable version is 2.1.0, last published over 8 years ago. While the release cadence is not explicitly stated, the project appears to be in a maintenance or abandoned phase given its age. Its key differentiator is the automatic, structured type conversion of AppleScript results into native JavaScript objects, simplifying data handling compared to raw `exec` calls, which typically return plain strings.
