在我的服务器上安装/设置Socket.IO [英] Installing/setting up Socket.IO on my server

问题描述

好的，所以我已经阅读了Socket.IO文档，我仍然有点不确定几点：

Ok so I have read through the Socket.IO docs and I am still a little unsure of a couple of points:

文档说......

要运行演示，请执行以下命令：

To run the demo, execute the following:

git clone git://github.com/LearnBoost/Socket.IO-node.git socket.io
cd socket.io/example/
sudo node server.js

现在我不知道这意味着什么！我认为它可能是命令行界面。我当然可以在我的本地主机上访问它，但我的在线主机包是一个共享的LAMP设置。意思是我无权访问root命令行（我认为）。

Now I don't know what this means at all! I think it may be command line interface. I of course have access to this on my localhost, but my online hosting package is a shared LAMP setup. Meaning I don't have access to the root command line (i think).

如何实际设置socket.IO，我的共享服务器包是不可能的？

How do I actually setup socket.IO, is it impossible on my shared server package?

感谢任何帮助......

Appreciate any help...

W。

推荐答案

如果您不熟悉node.js或基本的命令行用法，那么我建议您使用托管的WebSockets解决方案，如 pusherapp 。试图同时学习WebSockets，Node.js和Linux命令行会导致很多挫败感。看看pusherapp的快速入门指南，它很容易上手。您可以免费与一个应用程序同时连接5个（我与pusherapp无关）。

If you aren't familiar with node.js or with basic command line usage then I would suggest that you use a hosted WebSockets solution like pusherapp. Trying to learn WebSockets, and Node.js, and the Linux command line all at once is going to lead to a lot of frustration. Take a look a pusherapp's quick start guide, it's very easy to get started. You can have 5 simultaneous connections with a single application for free (I'm not affiliated with pusherapp).

如果您打算运行Socket.IO应用程序的方向：

If you are going to go the direction of running a Socket.IO application:

• 您在技术上不需要git，因为您可以从github上各自的下载链接下载node.js和Socket.IO。

• You don't technically need git since you can download node.js and Socket.IO from their respective download links on github.

您实际上不需要LAMP服务器来使用Socket.IO。默认情况下，除WebSockets服务器外，Socket.IO还可用作简单的Web服务器。如果你想要服务器端脚本，那么你可能希望Apache使用mod_php，mod_python等。

You don't actually need a LAMP server to use Socket.IO. By default Socket.IO functions as a simple webserver in addition to a WebSockets server. If you want server side scripting then you might want Apache with mod_php, mod_python, etc.

从技术上讲，你不需要专用服务器甚至root权限。您确实需要一个可以长时间运行的系统。如果您希望在重新引导系统时自动启动该服务，您可能希望将启动文件添加到/etc/init.d,/etc/rc.d，这将需要root访问权限。 node.js和Socket.IO都可以从普通的主目录安装和运行。如果你想在标准端口（如80或443）上运行Socket.IO，那么你需要以root权限运行它。

You don't technically need a dedicated server or even root access. You do need a system where you can have long running process. And if you want the service to start automatically when the system is rebooted, you probably want to add a startup file to /etc/init.d, /etc/rc.d which will require root access. Both node.js and Socket.IO can be installed and run from a normal home directory. If you want to run Socket.IO on a standard port like 80 or 443 then you will need to run it with root privilege.

Node.JS相当规模那么Socket.IO也可能很好地扩展。

Node.JS scales quite well so Socket.IO will probably scale pretty well too.

让所有设置和工作都不是一件简单的事情，但如果你的目标是一个免费的解决方案对于网络服务+ WebSockets然后Socket.IO可能是至少探索你是否勇敢的好途径。

It's not a simple matter to get everything setup and working, but if your goal is a free solution for web serving+WebSockets then Socket.IO is probably is good route to at least explore if you are brave.
