Node.js集群模块

Question

please help. I'm using nodejs cluster module: http://nodejs.org/docs/v0.6.18/api/cluster.html . I have the following code:

run.js

var cluster = require('cluster');

if (cluster.isMaster) {
    require('os').cpus().forEach(function () {
        cluster.fork();
    });
} else {
    require('./worker.js');
}

worker.js

var http = require('http'),
    connect = require('connect'),
    sio = require('socket.io'),
    // create server
    app = connect(),
    server = http.createServer(app);

server.listenPort(80);

var io = sio.listen(server);
// io.sockets.on ....

All workers listen 80 port. Each connection serves a random worker(?). Can I switch worker, where user has connected?

sorry my bad english

Answer 1

If you really needed to switch you could use sockets / socket.io to communicate between your clusters and send your work around.

Otherwise, you can't. But just curious - why would you want to?

Answer 2

You should look into WebRTC which enables peer-to-peer connection which is great for multi-player games.

My 2 cents.
