NodeJS and Python?

Question

I wish to buy a basic app service hosting for my nodejs project, which is a discord bot. Im using aoi.js npm package. It also requires a dependency that deals with voice commands. This dependency requires python. How do i make one single project with both nodejs and python.

Hello @Ashey Editz

I suggest you to use App Service Linux Docker and create your custom docker image based on nodejs and install python as there is no official docker image that has both nodejs and python in it.
I would not recommend to use 3rd party unofficial docker images as they may have security vulnerabilities.

Dockerfile example:

FROM node:16

RUN apt-get update -yq \
&& apt-get install python -yq
