Hi. I want to run examples from Javascript API in node.js, adapting them (the js examples) to run standalone in node.js without html, but I´m having errors when loading fmodstudio.js library using ‘require’.
I have in my script the standar setup for javascript as defined in documentation :
var FMOD = {}; // FMOD global object
FMOD[‘preRun’] = prerun;
FMOD[‘onRuntimeInitialized’] = main;
FMOD[‘TOTAL\_MEMORY’] = 64_1024_1024;
FMODModule(FMOD); // Calling the constructor function with our object
And I´m trying to load fmodstudio.js library with ‘require’ this way, but it doesn´t work:
var fmodstudiojs = require(’./fmodstudio.js’);
Any suggestions please in how to load it in my .js and acces it?
Thanks.

I successfully was able to load the fmodstudio.js library qith require:
1. Inserting this in the fmodstudio.js file:
2. Calling this way the constructor function from the js example file:
fmodstudio1js.FMODModule(FMOD); // Calling the constructor function with our object
But now I´m having some errors because obviously ‘document’ is not defined in nodejs, because it is on the DOM in the frontend side:
if(typeof module!==“undefined”){module[“exports”]=Module}process[“on”](“uncaughtException”,(function(ex){if(!(ex instanceof ExitStatus)){throw ex}}));
^

You will need to remove anything DOM related, the examples are all designed to be used with HTML.
