Nodejs.module Drupal 6 branch

Thanks to the efforts of julien, we now have a Drupal 6 port of the Nodejs module.

It still needs work, so anyone who asked for a D6 port is invited to get the code and test it! Bug reports and patches welcome.

it is still in dev, you have to work on this to make it work. The biggest problem i went through is the drupal.js version + jquery.js version of drupal 6, because of the drupal.ajax use in the module.

D6 branch

i'm happy to help people who need this to work properly, but i don't have a need for it, so i'm not going to lead on it.

i will review patches and commit them to the D6 branch, and i'm open to nominating a maintainer of that branch if someone wants to step up.

No issues in the queue

Hello,

I'm intending to use nodejs in a project coming up shortly and it's an oldish and complex D6 system (no plans for upgrading to D7 for now), so I was looking around and wondering what to do in order to help bring the D6 port of nodejs module to some stable state. I was not able to find any issues in the queue for this branch. Any ideas on what can I help with? I'm particularly new with node.js but my Drupal module development and JavaScript skills are quite ok. I'm hoping we can get the module up and running for D6 so I don't have to reinvent the hot water :-)

@mmartinov -- what's your use

My case is related to showing different live financial information to specific user roles. From one side it's simpler than chat because there's no two way communication, but we'll see, let's get the server working first.

I'm in a similar situation. Need to get nodejs integration for Drupal 6. Aiming to bring a node.js chatroom system that can be added as a field to nodes. Anyone done this?

chatroom 6.x-3.x branch

6.x-2.x is not really the place to make big changes, but i'm happy to open up a 6.x-3.x branch that integrates with node.js if you want to work on it.

i don't have a lot to do with 6.x in general right now, but i'll review and commit patches to bring node.js support to chatroom 6.x.

@beejeebus love to have a look at it. It seems like the best situation to get Drupal to pass the chat off to node.js then let the chatsever handle that. Do you have nodejs code for the chatserver itself?

I found the gsoc2011 branch of chatroom works quite nicely with node.js.

I took a look at the code for chatroom for it and I had bit of trouble figuring out what was from the ajax/php backend and what was for the nodejs. Any thoughts cleaning the node.js branch of chatroom for d7? I'd love to work on it from there...

Ok. I think I got it. A bit

Ok. I think I got it. A bit more complicated process than I assumed. I get way there is this mix of ajax and node.js.

chatroom 6.x-3.x branch is open

i've created a 6.x-3.x branch, first issue is:

allow adding a chat to a node via a node-reference field
