Description
Node.js for PHP Developers by Daniel Howard provides a comprehensive guide to transitioning your existing PHP web application to Node.js. By exploring the similarities between the two languages, you'll learn how to port your codebase and improve its performance. The book demonstrates how to refactor blocking PHP source code into non-blocking Node.js code using callbacks, and shows you how to convert specific PHP features into their Node.js equivalents. You'll also discover how to implement PHP classes and class inheritance in Node.js, as well as convert file handling APIs and database connections. With this book, you'll have the tools and techniques needed to update both your existing PHP and new Node.js codebases simultaneously, using a single reference point for important aspects of both languages.
