My first thought was that you could keep your current config and run Node on top of Apache as a module, much as people run PHP and Perl via mod_php and mod_perl. However, I could only find one mod_node<https://github.com/aredridel/mod_node>and it is "preview code" ("expect it to only barely work. maybe").
On second thought, running it inside Apache probably isn't a good idea because Apache runs on the old one-thread-per-connection model, whereas a lot of the reason people pick node is that it solves the C10K problem<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C10k_problem>by being event-driven and serving lots of connections on a single thread. There are posts<http://arguments.callee.info/2010/04/20/running-apache-and-node-js-together/> about <http://eastmond.org/blog/?p=45> proxying<http://readwrite.com/2010/12/23/how-to-run-apache-and-nodejs#awesm=~ol687K4GwJfvA7>from Apache to node, but you would have a lot more luck (and a lot more company) if you picked a web server that uses the same event-driven paradigm as node -- most people pick Nginx. If you google it, you'll find a lot of people giving instructions on porting Apache config to Ngix config -- heck, there's even an automated htaccess-to-nginx converter <http://winginx.com/htaccess> (I would be surprised if it could handle all this config perfectly, but I ran it and it didn't choke). Anyways, converting from Apache to Nginx is more apples-to-apples. It's quite common for people to use Nginx for the basics and then to have node behind it for custom/dynamic content -- you'll find lots of examples and instructions on how to do this. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
