Using as tor a library
However I want to use it as a 'library' not as a 'binary' like what the tor-android (TorService.java) and libtor-go does.

Embedding Tor into an application without external installation.
https://github.com/ipsn/go-libtor and https://github.com/cretz/bine are excellent libraries to get you started. They do exactly what you are asking.

Create Tor hidden service using only python or nodeJS
I don't know about python or node, but there is this project (https://github.com/ipsn/go-libtor) that is a fully Golang library for interacting with Tor without the tor daemon from the OS repos. Golang has python and NodeJS bindings so you could use a Golang program as a the glue code between the python/node pieces and Tor.

P.S. My app is written in Python and I am using stem library to controll TOR. It would be amazing if the SCN you recommend has such a library for control. If not, no wrries, I can research.
