Would it be viable to make a portable online chat application with Node.js?
I am wondering if it is possible to make a portable chat application with Node.js.
What I mean by portable is that, if there is a central website which provides chat service with Node.js, users can fetch the script codes (whether it is based on JavaScript or iframe
) and post the chat program on their website.
Assume this application is hosted on chatServer.com
- For example, if user has a div with its ID
chatScreen
adequate form input and has linked one of scripts from the chatServer.com
Or
- user can just iframe the chat page. (ex: chatServer.com/chat/room/roomName)
Or
- using the flash swf to port it in to the page.
If I remember correctly, JSON data are not tradable across different domains.
Do you think it is possible to make this application?
I just want to know whether it is possible to build it or not.
I have seen some similar web chat application that was implemented with 'Pytho开发者_如何学JAVAn twisted'+'swf'
If you use socket.io it'll simply use jsonp for cross domain communication.
<script src="//chatServer.com/socket.io.js"></script>
<script>
var socket = io.connect('//chatServer.com');
socket.on('chat', function (data) {
console.log(data);
socket.emit('my other event', { my: 'data' });
});
</script>
i Have faced issue in cross domain my code for app.js is
var express = require('express'),
app = express();
var port = process.env.PORT || 8080;
// Initialize a new socket.io object. It is bound to
// the express app, which allows them to coexist.
var io = require('socket.io').listen(app.listen(port));
// Require the configuration and the routes files, and pass
// the app and io as arguments to the returned functions.
io.use(function(socket, next) {
var handshakeData = socket.request;
//console.log(handshakeData);
next();
});
// Require the configuration and the routes files, and pass
// the app and io as arguments to the returned functions.
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "X-Requested-With");
res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET,POST");
next();
});
require('./config')(app, io);
require('./routes')(app, io);
console.log('Your application is running on http://localhost:' + port);
