Preface

Since the first edition of Node.js in Action, Node has merged with io.js and has dramatically changed its governance model. Nodes package manager has been spun off into a successful new company, npm, and technologies such as Babel and Electron have transformed the development landscape.

And yet, not much has changed in Nodes core libraries. JavaScript itself has changed: most developers now use features from ES2015, so all of the original listings have been rewritten to take advantage of arrow functions, constants, and destructuring. Nodes libraries and built-in tools still look broadly similar to Node pre 4.x, though, so weve looked to the community for updates to this edition.

To reflect the realities a Node developer now faces, weve restructured the book. There is less focus on Express and Connect, and more focus on a broader range of technologies. Everything you need to be a full-stack developer is here, including front-end build systems, choosing a web framework, working with databases in Node, writing tests, and deploying web apps.

In addition to web development, weve included chapters on writing command-line applications and Electron desktop apps. This lets you take full advantage of your Node and JavaScript skills.

Understanding Node and its ecosystem isnt the only thing this book is about. Where possible, Ive tried to add background details on what has influenced Node. Ideas such as Unix philosophy and using databases correctly and safely are covered alongside the usual Node and JavaScript topics. Hopefully, this gives you a broad enough picture of Node and JavaScript to seek out your own solutions to unique problems.

Acknowledgments

This book was built on the work of the previous authors and owes a great debt to their efforts: Mike Cantelon, Marc Harter, T.J. Holowaychuk, and Nathan Rajlich. This edition wouldnt have been possible without the encouragement of the team at Manning. Cynthia Kane, my development editor, kept me focused during the long process of updating the original content. Without Doug Warrens detailed technical proofread, this book and the sample code wouldnt be half as good as it is. Finally, thanks to the many reviewers who provided feedback during the writing and development process: Austin King, Carl Hope, Chris Salch, Christopher Reed, Dale Francis, Hafiz Waheed ud din, Harinath Mallepally, Jeff Smith, Marc-Philippe Huget, Matthew Bertoni, Philippe Charrire, Randy Kamradt, Sander Rossel, Scott Dierbeck, and William Wheeler.

About this Book

The first edition of Node.js in Action was about web development with a particular focus on the Connect and Express web frameworks. Node.js in Action, Second Edition has been updated to suit the changing requirements of Node development. Youll learn about front-end build systems, popular Node web frameworks, and how to build a web application with Express from scratch. Youll also learn how to create automated tests and deploy Node web applications.

Node is being increasingly used for command-line developer tools and desktop applications with Electron, so youll find chapters dedicated to both of these areas.

This book assumes youre familiar with basic programming concepts. The first chapter provides an overview of JavaScript and ES2015 for those of you who havent yet discovered the joys of modern JavaScript.

Roadmap

deal with testing and deployment, and this includes cloud deployment.

, which is all about Electron.

Weve also included three detailed appendixes. reviews each of the officially supported middleware components for the Connect web framework.

Code conventions and downloads

The code in this book follows common JavaScript conventions. Spaces, rather than tabs, are used for indentation. Lines longer than 80 characters are avoided. In many listings, the code is annotated to point out key concepts.

A single statement per line is used and semicolons are added at the end of simple statements. For blocks of code, where one or more statements are enclosed in curly braces, the left curly brace is placed at the end of the opening line of the block. The right curly brace is indented so its vertically aligned with the opening line of the block.

Source code for the examples in this book is available for download from the publishers website at www.manning.com/books/node-js-in-action-second-edition.
