| <!--type=misc--> |
| |
| An example of a [web server](http.html) written with Node which responds with 'Hello |
| World': |
| |
| var http = require('http'); |
| |
| http.createServer(function (request, response) { |
| response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'}); |
| response.end('Hello World\n'); |
| }).listen(8124); |
| |
| console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8124/'); |
| |
| To run the server, put the code into a file called `example.js` and execute |
| it with the node program |
| |
| > node example.js |
| Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8124/ |
