This module integrates Node.js with Drupal.

It provides an API that other modules can use to add realtime capabilities to Drupal, such as push notifications or chat. The module relies on a Node.js server application that maintains an open connection with the visitor's browser to enable instant communication. In order to use this module, you will need to install the Node.js application on a server.

Note: Starting with 7.x-1.11, the Node.js application is no longer bundled with the Drupal module. It can be downloaded from GitHub or NPM. See README.txt for instructions.

For setup instructions, refer to this guide.
