Question

I need call and pass parameter to NodeJS socket server.

I confirmed the server works well. and now I need to create PHP script to call the function.

My NodeJS code is like this,

var user = {};

socket.sockets.on("connection", function(client){
         client.on("messageToClient", function(uid, msg){  // I need to call this method
        user[uid].send(msg);
    });
});

PHP ::

$fp = fsockopen("10.0.111.10","3000",$errno,$errstr, 30);

if(!$fp){
    echo "{$errno} ({$errstr}) <br />";
}else{
$uid_parameter = 'ABC';
$msg_parameter = 'HELLO';
    $out = "HOW TO CALL NodeJS messageToClient Method AND PASS PARAMETER?";
fwrite($fp,$out);
fclose($fp);
}

The more elegant solution would be just do it all in Nodejs or all in PHP. DB interaction as well. NodeJS can interact with almost every type of commonly used database. It would save you having to implement what will be a quite hacky code.
