Introduction Node.js is a very interesting server-side Javascript application framework.

File uploads using Node.js: now for real

It is based on Google’s V8 Javascript engine and implements evented I/O, so it is blazing fast. It looks very promising for certain types of applications, mostly those that require long-running connections. This includes streaming big files, keeping persistent connections used for realtime communication (chat, games), applications using third-party web services (with long call times), etc. There is good enough API reference available for Node.js, however it is not trivial to start development as event-based approach is quite unusual compared to commonly used thread-based networking.

However the given examples have problem — they are too far from real world problems. File uploads using Node.js: once again. I’ve already wrote an article about file uploads in Node.js before.

Child Process Node.js v0.8.11 Manual

It is possible to stream data through a child's stdin, stdout, and stderr in a fully non-blocking way. (Note that some programs use line-buffered I/O internally. That doesn't affect node.js but it means data you send to the child process is not immediately consumed.) To create a child process use require('child_process').spawn() or require('child_process').fork(). Class: ChildProcess# Modules · joyent/node Wiki. This page is deprecated.

Feel free to add to it, but be advised that it is, at best, a faded relic of Node modules that were written before npm was a dominant force in the Node.js ecosystem. It is not all that useful any more. If you are a newcomer, it can be handy to at least get a starting point. However, note that there are many tens of thousands of modules in the npm registry, and only just under 2,000 modules here.
