nodejs, expressjs serving PHP files

Question

Ok I\'ve been playing around with nodejs, expressjs and socket.io to create some applications. But now im coming to the stage where i want to take things a bit further.

Answer 1

Uh, skip PHP entirely and integrate everyauth into your app.

Answer 2

PHP-EXPRESS should do. Just install the package and follow the docs.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/php-express

Answer 3

As already noted, node.js itself won't interpret php files for you. Available options are:

• have nginx in front of node and reverse proxy all request you want to process in node from it
• proxy php requests from node to php-capable server
• spawn php process on each request in node
• make fastcgi link to php-fastcgi using node fastcgi protocol parser
