The state of affairs in Dec 2015 offers the following alternatives.
First, there’s the original library supported by the Raspberry team (https://github.com/RPi-Distro/python-sense-hat). Use this one for best user experience. One feature is that it is written in Python. This is a drawback if you want to be plain Javascript.
A Javascript wrapper for RTIMULib2 (https://github.com/rupnikj/nodeimu). It does supports gravity, air pressure, humidity and temperature, but not the matrix LED.
From https://github.com/teuteuguy/raspberry-sensor-sense-hat. Supports the matrix LED, but only via embedded python shell script escapes.
