Title may seem a little misleading so let me elaborate on this. I need to set the value of a variable (within current context) and share it among other apps which needs to use this variable.
Let's say there is a counter module counter.js:
var Counter = module.exports = {
count: 0,
add: function() {
Counter.count += 1;
}
}
I use it in my counter-app.js like this:
var counter = require("./counter");
setInterval(function() {
counter.add();
console.log(counter.count);
}, 1000);
It starts to set and display numbers sequentially which is good so far.
While above app is running, I make another app named counter-var.js which contains:
var counter = require("./counter");
console.log(counter.count);
I need counter-var.js to print out current Counter.count variable value which is set by first app. Is there any way to achieve this sharing without using databases (redis, e.g.)?
