给 connect 的 static 模块加上url路径前缀

估计我们使用 connect 都会很自然地按照官方的例子使用静态文件模块 static:

var connect = require('connect');

connect(
  connect.static(__dirname),
  function (req, res) {
    res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
    res.end('Hello World\n');
  }
).listen(8124);

console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8124/');

基准性能

为了评测 static 的性能,我们需要又一个基准对比。

官方最纯洁的 helloworld

我们使用 nodejs 官方文档给出的 helloworld 做最基础的参照:

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/');

最纯洁的 connect helloworld

不使用任何中间件模块

var connect = require('connect');

connect(function (req, res) {
  res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
  res.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(8124);

console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8124/');

结合 domain 模块的 connect helloworld

var connect = require('connect');
var createDomain = require('domain').create;

connect(
  function (req, res, next) {
    var domain = createDomain();
    domain.on('error', function (err) {
      console.log('errrrrr', err);
      res.statusCode = 500;
      res.end(err.message + '\n');
      domain.dispose();
    });
    domain.run(next);
  },
  function (req, res, next) {
    if (req.url === '/error') {
      process.nextTick(function () {
        res.end('params: ' + req.query.abc);
      });
      return;
    }
    res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
    res.end('Hello World\n');
  }
).listen(8124);

console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8124/');

为什么性能降低了50%

晕,为什么加上了 static 模块,性能会降低了50%这么多? 查看 static.send() 源代码:

// "hidden" file
if (!hidden && '.' == basename(path)[0]) return next();

fs.stat(path, function(err, stat){
  // mime type
  type = mime.lookup(path);

  // ignore ENOENT
  if (err) {
    if (fn) return fn(err);
    return ('ENOENT' == err.code || 'ENAMETOOLONG' == err.code)
      ? next()
      : next(err);
  // redirect directory in case index.html is present
  } else if (stat.isDirectory()) {
    if (!redirect) return next();
    res.statusCode = 301;
    res.setHeader('Location', url.pathname + '/');
    res.end('Redirecting to ' + url.pathname + '/');
    return;
  }

static 模块每次都需要一次文件IO,判断文件是否存在,这是多么损耗性能啊。

增加静态文件url路径前缀

既然找到性能问题所在,就可以解决此问题了。对症下药,无需让所有请求都经过 static 处理即可。 给 static 增加一个url前缀判断,例如 /public/images/logo.jpg 只有前缀是 /public 的 url 请求才需要进入 static 模块处理。

那么我们改进后的代码应该是这样的:

var connect = require('connect');

var app = connect();
app.use('/public', connect.static(__dirname));

app.use(function (req, res) {
  res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
  res.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(8124);

console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8124/');

性能如何? wow 6749.03 qps, 几乎和 connect hellowrold 一致。done!

重现一下之前的性能问题,访问 /public/foo 即可重现。

记得给 connect.static 加上一个url路径前缀喔!
