Development environment where PHP and Nodejs coexist

1 Toss php Nodejs together

Nodejs Of course is very fire, like a fire, but must admit to build a front-end demo development environment or PHP, Windows can be very integrated suite, such as http://www.apachefriends.org/zhcn/ xampp.html, the PHP language itself is a powerful template, when writing a demo, the common tail, can be introduced through include and require, can be built into the loop to generate some DOM structure, in contrast, node is not so convenient.

Since PHP is so convenient, but why still want to use with node, really a bit for use and use ...

2 How?

If you have Python installed, you can execute a simple command immediately, and a simple development server is done.

Python-m Simplehttpserver

But PHP, until php5.4, supported similar features.

$ php-s 0.0.0.0:8000php 5.4.0 Development Server started at Tue 23:21:50 2012Listening on 0.0.0.0:8000document Roo T is/home/tompress ctrl-c to quit.

PHP itself can be a server, Nodejs can also rack a server, then there is no Apache, Nginx

The basic idea is that node opens a server as the foreground, listening to 80 ports, similar to Apache's role, PHP opens a server in the background to run. The node service forwards the HTTP request to the PHP server for execution, which is returned to the node server when the execution is completed, and the node server returns to the browser

node is assuming an intermediate proxy role.

var fs = require (' FS '), HTTP = require (' http '), spawn = require (' child_process '). Spawn, Phpserver;phpserver = Spa WN (' php ', ['-s ', ' 0.0.0.0:8000 ']);p hpserver.stdout.on (' Data ', function (data) {Console.log (' stdout: ' + data);}); Phpserver.stderr.on (' Data ', function (data) {Console.log (' stderr: ' + data);}); Phpserver.on (' Exit ', function (code) {Console.log (' child process exited with code ' + code ');}); Process.on (' Exit ', function () {Phpserver.kill (' SIGHUP ');});  function HandleRequest (request, Response) {var headers = {};  for (var x in request.headers) {headers[x] = request.headers[x];  } headers[' Content-type ']= ' application/x-www-form-urlencoded '; var proxy_request = Http.request ({host: ' localhost ', port:8000, Method:request.method, Path:request.url, he  Aders:headers}); Proxy_request.on (' response ', function (proxy_response) {Response.writehead (proxy_response.statuscode,proxy_    Response.headers); Proxy_response.on (' Data ', function (chunk) {ResponSe.write (new Buffer (chunk));    });    Proxy_response.on (' End ', function () {response.end ();  });  });  Request.on (' Data ', function (chunk) {Proxy_request.write (new Buffer (chunk));  });  Request.on (' End ', function () {proxy_request.end (); });} Http.createserver (HandleRequest). Listen (80);

Save the above file as Server.js and then execute it on the command line

Node Server.js

A node and PHP mashup server was built.

3 Attention points3.1 Request and response data must be a buffer object

Response.Write (New buffer (chunk)) Proxy_request.write (new buffer (chunk));

3.2 To pass the form data, you need to set the header

headers[' Content-type ']= ' application/x-www-form-urlencoded ';
