Mount the server using javascript

[Muthu Veerappan]

Hi Guys,
I just wanna alternate javascript code for the below applescript  :

tell application "Finder"

mount volume "smb://server/Automation"

mount volume "smb://server/Library"

end tell

In applescript we can able to mount a server using the above mentioned code, but i need the code in javascript to mount the server.

Can anyone help on this request...

Thanks in Advance,
Muthu

Which JavaScript (eg Photoshop, Acrobat, web browser, Automator)?

I don't think JS has such native capabilities. In my opinion you might have to keep using this applescript and write a similiar VBScript for WIN, if making this work on both platforms is the end game you desire.

Hi Muthu,

just to add to Manan's reply:
You could execute AppleScript code with ExtendScript.

Sampel code with method doScript() :

var s =
'''
tell application "Finder"
mount volume "smb://server/Automation"
mount volume "smb://server/Library"
end tell
''';

app.doScript( s , ScriptLanguage.APPLESCRIPT_LANGUAGE );
