The difference between `cluster.fork()` and `child_process.fork()` is simply
|
||||||
|
that cluster allows TCP servers to be shared between workers. `cluster.fork`
|
||||||
|
is implemented on top of `child_process.fork`. The message passing API that
|
||||||
|
is available with `child_process.fork` is available with `cluster` as well.
|
||||||
|
As an example, here is a cluster which keeps count of the number of requests
|
||||||
|
in the master process via message passing:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
var cluster = require('cluster');
|
||||||
|
var http = require('http');
|
||||||
|
var numReqs = 0;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if (cluster.isMaster) {
|
||||||
|
// Fork workers.
|
||||||
|
for (var i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
|
||||||
|
var worker = cluster.fork();
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
worker.on('message', function(msg) {
|
||||||
|
if (msg.cmd && msg.cmd == 'notifyRequest') {
|
||||||
|
numReqs++;
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
setInterval(function() {
|
||||||
|
console.log("numReqs =", numReqs);
|
||||||
|
}, 1000);
|
||||||
|
} else {
|
||||||
|
// Worker processes have a http server.
|
||||||
|
http.Server(function(req, res) {
|
||||||
|
res.writeHead(200);
|
||||||
|
res.end("hello world\n");
|
||||||
|
// Send message to master process
|
||||||
|
process.send({ cmd: 'notifyRequest' });
|
||||||
|
}).listen(8000);
|
||||||
|
}
