AFAIK, the only documentation is in the file ob-js.el. Back in 2011, Eric Schulte welcomed patches to ob-js.el to support sessions with node. I don't think there has been any subsequent work on this front. You'll need something like this in .emacs: (org-babel-do-load-languages 'org-babel-load-languages '((js . t))) If you evaluate the following source code block, you can look at localhost:8888 and see Hello World. But, emacs is fully engaged until you press Ctrl-G. #+begin_src js :tangle hello.js var http = require("http"); http.createServer(function(request, response) { response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/plain"}); response.write("Hello World"); response.end(); }).listen(8888); #+end_src hth, Tom -- Thomas S.
