Set the working directory

[Guichaguri]

The working directory is used by the file system in Node.JS applications. Currently, it's set to the java working directory.
Is there a way to set the working directory?
If not, can this be implemented?

Also, how do I prevent the process termination when a Node.JS application crashes?
I've tried try catch and SecurityManager and had no luck

@Guichaguri Can you provide an example of a Node.js crash that you are trying to prevent?

[Guichaguri]

@irbull

var fs = require('fs');

fs.readFileSync('invalid-file.json'); // Crash

A simple throw new Error(); also exits the process

For now I'm listening to the uncaughtException event to prevent exceptions terminating the process and not just the Node.JS instance. I hope there is a workaround for this, but I think it's hard coded into Node

Im also interested in solving issue with working directory or is there any workaround?

Im creating two v8, doing process.chdir('some-path') for one and for some strange reason process directory of another lambda is also changed. Why its happening this way? It looks like Reason Is that I can only create node js with global alias only, can I create it with some custom alias ?
