node.js向客户端发送数据？

Question

I wonder how can I send data from node.js to client?

example node.js code -

var http = require('http');

var data = "data to send to client";

var server = http.createServer(function (request, response) {
  response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/plain"});
  response.end("Hello World\n");
}).listen(8125);

Now, I want to send the data variable to client and log it with JavaScript..
How can I do that?

Thanks ;)

Does anyone know how to send array?

If You Want to do it after response.end you should use Socket.io or Server Send Events.

If you want it before res.end , you would make your code look like:

var http = require('http');

var data = "data to send to client";

var server = http.createServer(function (request, response) {
    response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/plain"});
    response.write(data); // You Can Call Response.write Infinite Times BEFORE response.end
    response.end("Hello World\n");
}).listen(8125);
