What would be the best way to call shell script or python from Node JS?

My use case is, I am building a web portal with Angular , Node and MongoDB, and now I have to call python which in turn runs some wsadmin commands.

Usage of this portal is not gonna be heavy. All these runs on same Solaris host .

Appreciate your response...

Use child_process.exec

For example:

var exec = require('child_process').exec,
    child;

child = exec('python test.py',
  function (error, stdout, stderr) {
    console.log('stdout: ' + stdout);
    console.log('stderr: ' + stderr);
    if (error !== null) {
      console.log('exec error: ' + error);
    }
});
