Hi All,

Can anyone of you please guide me to some useful resource that can really help me to integrate YII with node.js.

Regards

Yii is PHP and Node.js is javascript on the server side.

There’s nothing to integrate. You can however have a Yii app that can talk to the Node.js server via api/etc, but that beats the purpose of the node.js installation.

You should use a node.js framework if you want to use node.js, i am using express for instance, and does a good job.

Is there any illustration or resource that demostrates me how to use Yii app that can talk to the Node.js server via api. In other words how to make yii application api centric.

You should choose the Express. js. The vast and active community of developers is important for both newcomers and experienced developers when building web apps with Node.js. (according this article of cleveroad.com)
