TCP and HTTP server together?

[ss9]

I have a unique app I need to build:

1. Gets a request from a browser
2. Passes a call to a TCP server which sends a UUID to a 3rd party
3. TCP server listens for streams from the 3rd party.
4. TCP server filters the stream to send the UUID messages back to
the HTTP server
5. HTTP server does something with the message.

I've had a few thoughts so far which include two different node
servers, one tcp and one http... or one server that does both, maybe
spawns child processes for the tcp part?

Any thoughts on the best way to go about this?

hook.io is good for this

you can also just use a combination of nssocket / dnode / node's internal apis

Applications like this are why I built http://actionherojs.com/

Let me know what you think!

Can you point out how built it from scratch. Using third party software cause a lot of headache.

[Evan]

The code is all available on Github: https://github.com/evantahler/actionhero

To start your own project using actionhero:

- Install node and npm

- in a new directory, run `npm install actionhero` which will download the library locally

- generate a new project with `./node_modules/.bin/actionhero generate`

- and then from there you can start your new project with `npm start`

Documentation is here: http://www.actionherojs.com/docs/

Node is third party software (:

No I din't mean node.js. I mean the TCP-library written by other people. I want to write that library by myself, I mean from scratch. It would serve my purpose better then the universal one, including performance improvement. I don't think it's that hard. I just don't know where to begin.

I hope there's an answer I can find in the internet.

You probably want this, then:

https://nodejs.org/api/net.html

This is node's built-in direct access to TCP sockets.

Do it the usual way:
1) learn how to use well thr existing ones
2) study their code
3) analyze what you want to do better and what to discard
4) write your own
