[08:17] <danielbeck> hello! I would like to test an application with the ubuntu touch emulator. I would like to install and start the application from the command line, since the ubuntu touch emulator does not work well for me (the screen stays black)
[08:18] <danielbeck> I copied the click file and installed it with pkcon. Now I would like to start it from the adb shell, but I don't know how to do it. Can someone give me a hint?

[15:14] <pikachuza> hi all
[15:15] <pikachuza> does anyone know how to execute a command in html5 and then get back the output from std out for use in a html5 app?
[15:15] <pikachuza> or if this is not directly possible, how can one call node.js from within an html5 app?
[16:42] <pikachuza> is there anyway to link to the underlying OS shell from javascript/html5 app?
[16:44] <daker> pikachuza: what do you mean ?
[16:44] <pikachuza> daker - i would like execute a linux command and then use the results in an html5 app
[16:45] <daker> pikachuza: what kind of command ?
[16:45] <pikachuza> daker like one would do in a bash script for example.
[16:45] <daker> pikachuza: that's not possible
[16:45] <pikachuza> daker - top, df etc
[16:45] <pikachuza> daker - mmm thought that might be the case
[16:46] <pikachuza> daker i don't suppose there is any plans to add this?  Also no way to call node.js from within your html5 app?
[16:48] <daker> i am not sure about that
[16:49] <daker> pikachuza: it can be a security issue their
[16:51] <pikachuza> daker - yeah. I can image they wouldn't want it for phones but for desktop apps this kind of integration is essential :(
[16:52] <daker> pikachuza: we do have JS APIs to do some common task, like trigger download, create a alarm, get push notification...
[16:53] <daker> but accessing a lower level of the shell is not possible
[16:54] <pikachuza> daker - i seen those. Are there more coming? APIs. For example how can one access a mongdb database from an html5 app? Do you think that will be on the list at all?
[16:54] <pikachuza> daker or is the plan to be that the developer should create some kind of rest api with another language to provide this info to the frontend?
[16:54] <pikachuza> ui
[16:55] <daker> yeah that's what's the recommended way
[16:56] <pikachuza> daker: ok. Is there any recommendation for the rest "server" side. If it will be running on the same desktop. I am thinking of launching a node.js application then using the html5 sdk for the front-end
[16:56] <pikachuza> daker: how can I get the node.js portion to launch when the ui  luanches?
[17:01] <daker> pikachuza: it up to you, for now we don't provide a way to automatically link the backend & the frontend like angular and others
[17:01] <pikachuza> daker  - cool. thanks for the info
[17:01] <daker> you can just jquery or other lib to do that
[17:01] <daker> use*
