#JS Executor Microservice

Microservice for secure JavaScript code execution in an isolated environment using isolated-vm. Ideal for use as a code execution backend, sandbox, or integration with systems that need to evaluate JS in a controlled way.

#Features

• Executes JavaScript code securely and in isolation
• Configurable memory and execution time limits
• Blocks dangerous patterns (require, import, process, global, console.log)
• Endpoints protected by secret header and origin validation
• Healthcheck endpoint for monitoring

#Endpoints

#POST /execute

Executes JS code sent in the request body.

Required headers:
