将信息从PHP传递给node.js？

Question

How i can pass current logged in user informations from PHP to node.js?

For example: assumimg this chat app (http://socket.io/get-started/chat/) how i can bind PHP with the nodejs app, so it would be possible to tell which user sent this message from the php apche server.

I was able to connect NodeJs from my PHP application by just using the

io.connect('http://127.0.0.1:3000')

and custom events all works great. but i can't understand how i can share the logged in username etc from PHP to node.js?

After googling i've found DNODE (http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/dnode-make_php_and_node-js_talk_to_each_other/) and now i am totally confused.

I think Express Framework would do this but i want to do things with PHP and Node.

Please share some ideas, i am just a beginner at node js.

If you're specifically referring to accessing session data stored by PHP, you might consider using a database (for example, redis or mysql) for storing your sessions instead. This way you can just access the session data directly without having to involve PHP.
