Summary

This is a hands-on tutorial on Node.js server-side development written by Hu Ruji and published by Tsinghua University Press. The book has 14 chapters in four parts. Part One introduces the origin, structure, features, and application scenarios of Node.js, and how to set up a development environment on Windows, Linux, and macOS. Part Two covers programming fundamentals, including coding conventions, NPM package management and package.json, the file system module, network development, and database development. Part Three is development practice, covering front-end frameworks such as jQuery and React, the positioning and selection of Node.js frameworks such as Express, Meteor, and Koa, unit testing with Mocha, and deployment and toolchain topics such as Nginx, Yarn, and PM2. Part Four provides complete project cases: building a personal blog system with Express, building a task list with Meteor and MongoDB, and designing a Node.js package and publishing it to NPM. The book combines concrete usage of native modules such as http, net, fs, dns, path, and assert, with sample code and comments, emphasizing "learn by writing" to help developers with a JavaScript foundation move from syntax to complete, runnable, deployable projects.

Editor's review

很多 Node.js 入门书只讲到语法就结束了，读者一写项目便无从下手。这本书的思路是把“原生模块”和“框架实战”两条线并排推进：前半程把 http、net、fs、dns、path、assert 这些最容易被跳过的底层能力讲细，后半程再带你用 Express、Meteor、Koa 落地。四篇 14 章的层次相当清楚，从环境搭建、包管理、文件与网络、数据库，到单元测试、Nginx、PM2 部署，最终收束到个人博客、任务清单和一个可发布的 NPM 包三个项目，知识链条是完整闭合的。对于已有 JavaScript 基础、想补上服务端这一块的人，它最实在的地方是给出可运行的代码与注释，而不是概念罗列。需要提醒的是，本书成书于 2017—2018 年，Meteor、Koa、PM2 等工具的版本与今天已有差距，部分配置写法需要对照官方文档更新，把它当作“知识地图 + 练手项目”来用会更合适。

Who it's for

A good fit for

已掌握 JavaScript 基础语法、想转做服务端开发的前端开发者
希望系统补齐 Node.js 原生模块知识的中级开发者
需要完整项目案例练手的计算机专业学生与培训学员
想了解 Express、Koa、Meteor 差异并做技术选型的开发者

Not a good fit for

完全没有编程基础、连 HTML/JS 都没写过的纯新手
只想要最新版 Node.js 与 TypeScript 实践的高级读者
希望深入学习框架源码与底层原理的研究型读者

Reading tips

先按章节手敲示例代码，尤其把 fs、net、http 模块的例子跑通再做项目。
第三篇可按需选读：重点看单元测试与 PM2 部署，框架部分对照官方文档核对版本。
把第 12、13 章的项目完整做一遍，再尝试用新版 Express 重写部分代码。
遇到 API 变更时以 Node.js 官网与时下框架文档为准，把本书当作知识框架而非手册。

FAQ

这本书适合零基础学 Node.js 吗？

不太适合完全零基础的人。书中直接进入 Node.js 模块与框架讲解，默认读者已掌握 JavaScript 语法和基本 Web 概念。若从未写过 JS，建议先补一门 JavaScript 入门课再来阅读。

书里的代码现在还能跑吗？

核心的 fs、http、net 等原生模块示例大致仍可用，但 Meteor、Koa、PM2 的版本与配置方式已有变化，NPM 包发布流程也有调整。建议按官方最新文档校正依赖版本后再运行。

这本书和《Vue.js+Node.js开发实战》是同一本吗？

不是。本书作者为忽如寄，清华大学出版社出版，ISBN 9787302488149；《Vue.js+Node.js开发实战：从入门到项目上线》作者为张帆，机械工业出版社出版，两书内容侧重与项目案例均不同。

书中包含哪些实战项目？

第四篇给出三个案例：用 Express 开发个人博客系统、用 Meteor 配合 MongoDB 开发任务清单应用，以及设计一个 Node.js 包并发布到 NPM，涵盖需求准备、开发与总结环节。

书里有讲部署和测试吗？

有。第 10 章讲单元测试并用 Mocha 编写用例，第 11 章涉及 Nginx、Yarn、PM2 等部署与工具链内容，可作为把项目跑上服务器的入门参考。
