javascript - Can you connect to a running Node JS server from a command line js script on another computer? -

i have spent many days on , been unable solution.

i have node server running (very basic) working , have web pages can connect , work server.

but need debian based raspberry pi run js file using node can connect existing node server.

is possible or understanding of node incorrect.

this basic server

var socket = require('socket.io'); var express = require('express'); var http = require('http');  var app = express(); var server = http.createserver(app);  var io = socket.listen(server);   io.on('connection', function (client) {     console.log('connected');       client.on('deviceevent', function (data) {         io.sockets.emit('return',{ param1: data.param1, param2: data.param2, param3: data.param3 });     console.log(data);     });      client.on('disconnect', function () {     io.sockets.emit('user disconnected');   });    });   server.listen(3000); console.log('listening'); 

and how expecting able connect via cmd line js file.

(this doesnt work @ all)

var socket = require('socket.io');  mysocket = socket.connect('http://192.168.1.70:3000'); mysocket.emit('deviceevent', { param1: "update", param2: "0", param3: "1" }); 

so possible? have server working damned if can js file can run @ cmd line connect.

any appreceiated.

btw. socket.io examples related web page connecting server doing.

you need use socket.io-client connect socket.io server

var io = require('socket.io-client');  mysocket = io.connect('http://192.168.1.70:3000');  mysocket.on('connect', function(){   mysocket.emit('deviceevent', { param1: "update", param2: "0", param3: "1" }); });
