INTRODUCTION
Hi, I’m @bkeepers
None
nodejs.org Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime
for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non- blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.
server side JavaScript
$ node webserver.js var http = require('http'), server = http.createServer();
server.on('request', function (req, res) { res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'}); res.end('Hello World\n'); }); server.listen(1337, "127.0.0.1"); console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:1337/'); webserver.js
None
event loop modules package management
non-blocking evented I/O
event driven

event driven Button
event driven Button $('button').on('click', function(event) { alert('Event Driven!') });
event driven server.on('request', function(req, res) { res.write(handleRequest(req)) });
non-blocking
None
// blocking var files = fs.readdirSync('/tmp') for(var i = 0;
i < files.length; i++) { var file = files[i]; fs.unlinkSync('/tmp/' + file); console.log('successfully deleted ' + file); }
// blocking var files = fs.readdirSync('/tmp') for(var i = 0;
i < files.length; i++) { var file = files[i]; fs.unlinkSync('/tmp/' + file); console.log('successfully deleted ' + file); } // non-blocking fs.readdir('/tmp', function(err, files) { for(var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) { var file = files[i]; fs.unlink('/tmp/' + file, function (err) { if (err) throw err; console.log('successfully deleted ' + file); }); } });
CommonJS modules
JavaScript Pollutes
JavaScript Pollutes string = "pollution";
None
var http = require('http');
hello.js module.exports = function() { return 'Hello World' };
$ node myapp.js myapp.js var hello = require('./hello.js'); console.log(hello());
package management

$ npm install <package>
package.json
