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/');

GLOBAL OBJECTS

In browsers, the top-level scope is the global scope.

//**************
 // * EVENTS
 * http://nodejs.org/api/events.html
*/
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------\\
>  All objects which emit events are instances of events.EventEmitter. You can access this module by doing: require("events");

To access the EventEmitter class, require('events').EventEmitter. All EventEmitters emit the event 'newListener' when new listeners are added and 'removeListener' when a listener is removed.

emitter.addListener(event, listener);        

Adds a listener to the end of the listeners array for the specified event.

emitter.on(event, listener); 
>  Same as emitter.addListener().



```js

emitter.once(event, listener);

Adds a one time listener for the event. This listener is invoked only the next time the event is fired, after which it is removed.

emitter.removeListener(event, listener);     
>  Remove a listener from the listener array for the specified event.



```js

emitter.removeAllListeners([event]);

Removes all listeners, or those of the specified event.

emitter.setMaxListeners(n);  
>  By default EventEmitters will print a warning if more than 10 listeners are added for a particular event.



```js

emitter.listeners(event);    
>  Returns an array of listeners for the specified event.



```js

emitter.emit(event, [arg1], [arg2], [...]);  

Execute each of the listeners in order with the supplied arguments. Returns true if event had listeners, false otherwise.

EventEmitter.listenerCount(emitter, event);  

Return the number of listeners for a given event. A stream is an abstract interface implemented by various objects in Node. For example a request to an HTTP server is a stream, as is stdout. Streams are readable, writable, or both. All streams are instances of EventEmitter. The Readable stream interface is the abstraction for a source of data that you are reading from. In other words, data comes out of a Readable stream. A Readable stream will not start emitting data until you indicate that you are ready to receive it. Examples of readable streams include: http responses on the client, http requests on the server, fs read streams zlib streams, crypto streams, tcp sockets, child process stdout and stderr, process.stdin.

let readable = getReadableStreamSomehow();
readable.on('readable', function() {});   

When a chunk of data can be read from the stream, it will emit a 'readable' event.

readable.on('data', function(chunk) {});  

If you attach a data event listener, then it will switch the stream into flowing mode, and data will be passed to your handler as soon as it is available.

readable.on('end', function() {});        

This event fires when there will be no more data to read.

readable.on('close', function() {});      

Emitted when the underlying resource (for example, the backing file descriptor) has been closed. Not all streams will emit this.

readable.on('error', function() {});      

Emitted if there was an error receiving data. The read() method pulls some data out of the internal buffer and returns it. If there is no data available, then it will return null. This method should only be called in non-flowing mode. In flowing-mode, this method is called automatically until the internal buffer is drained.

readable.read([size]);
readable.setEncoding(encoding);              

Call this function to cause the stream to return strings of the specified encoding instead of Buffer objects.

readable.resume();      

This method will cause the readable stream to resume emitting data events.

readable.pause();

This method will cause a stream in flowing-mode to stop emitting data events.

readable.pipe(destination, [options]);

This method pulls all the data out of a readable stream, and writes it to the supplied destination, automatically managing the flow so that the destination is not overwhelmed by a fast readable stream.

readable.unpipe([destination]);

This method will remove the hooks set up for a previous pipe() call. If the destination is not specified, then all pipes are removed.

readable.unshift(chunk);  
>  This is useful in certain cases where a stream is being consumed by a parser, which needs to "un-consume" some data that it has optimistically pulled out of the source, so that the stream can be passed on to some other party.
>  The Writable stream interface is an abstraction for a destination that you are writing data to.
 > Examples of writable streams include: http requests on the client, http responses on the server, fs write streams,
>  zlib streams, crypto streams, tcp sockets, child process stdin, process.stdout, process.stderr.



```js

let writer = getWritableStreamSomehow();
writable.write(chunk, [encoding], [callback]);  

This method writes some data to the underlying system, and calls the supplied callback once the data has been fully handled.

writer.once('drain', write);    
>  If a writable.write(chunk) call returns false, then the drain event will indicate when it is appropriate to begin writing more data to the stream.



```js

writable.end([chunk], [encoding], [callback]);  

Call this method when no more data will be written to the stream.

writer.on('finish', function() {});             
>  When the end() method has been called, and all data has been flushed to the underlying system, this event is emitted.



```js

writer.on('pipe', function(src) {});            

This is emitted whenever the pipe() method is called on a readable stream, adding this writable to its set of destinations.

writer.on('unpipe', function(src) {});              

This is emitted whenever the unpipe() method is called on a readable stream, removing this writable from its set of destinations.

writer.on('error', function(src) {});              

Emitted if there was an error when writing or piping data. Duplex streams are streams that implement both the Readable and Writable interfaces. See above for usage. Examples of Duplex streams include: tcp sockets, zlib streams, crypto streams. Transform streams are Duplex streams where the output is in some way computed from the input. They implement both the Readable and Writable interfaces. See above for usage. Examples of Transform streams include: zlib streams, crypto streams.

#// declarative and flexible JavaScript library for building UI

npm install --save prop-types  
#// runtime type checking for React props and similar objects

notes: don't forget the command lines

Create and return a new React element of the given type.

Code written with JSX will be converted to use React.createElement().

You will not typically invoke React.createElement() directly if you are using JSX.

React.createElement(
type,
[props],
[...children]
)

Clone and return a new React element using element as the starting point.

The resulting element will have the original element's props with the new props merged in shallowly.

React.cloneElement(
element,
[props],
[...children]
)

Verifies the object is a React element. Returns true or false.

React.isValidElement(object)

React.Children> provides utilities for dealing with the this.props.children opaque data structure. Invokes a function on every immediate child contained within children with this set to thisArg.

React.Children.map(children, function[(thisArg)])

Like React.Children.map() but does not return an array.

React.Children.forEach(children, function[(thisArg)])

Returns the total number of components in children, equal to the number of times that a callback passed to map or forEach would be invoked.

React.Children.count(children)

Verifies that children has only one child (a React element) and returns it.

Otherwise this method throws an error.

React.Children.only(children)

Returns the children opaque data structure as a flat array with keys assigned to each child.

Useful if you want to manipulate collections of children in your render methods, especially if you want to reorder or slice this.props.children before passing it down.

React.Children.toArray(children)

The React.Fragment component lets you return multiple elements in a render() method without creating an additional DOM element

You can also use it with the shorthand <></> syntax.

class Component extends React.Component {

Will be called before it is mounted constructor(props) { Call this method before any other statement or this.props will be undefined in the constructor super(props);

The constructor is also often used to bind event handlers to the class instance.

Binding makes sure the method has access to component attributes like this.props and this.state

  this.method = this.method.bind(this);

The constructor is the right place to initialize state.

  this.state = {
    active: true,

In rare cases, it's okay to initialize state based on props.

This effectively "forks” the props and sets the state with the initial props.

If you "fork” props by using them for state, you might also want to implement componentWillReceiveProps(nextProps) to keep the state up-to-date with them. But lifting state up is often easier and less bug-prone.

    color: props.initialColor
  };
}

Enqueues changes to the component state and tells React that this component and its children need to be re-rendered with the updated state.

setState() does not always immediately update the component. It may batch or defer the update until later.

This makes reading this.state right after calling setState() a potential pitfall.

Instead, use componentDidUpdate or a setState callback.

You may optionally pass an object as the first argument to setState() instead of a function.

setState(updater[, callback]) { }

Invoked just before mounting occurs (before render())

This is the only lifecycle hook called on server rendering.

componentWillMount() { }

Invoked immediately after a component is mounted.

Initialization that requires DOM nodes should go here.

If you need to load data from a remote endpoint, this is a good place to instantiate the network request.

This method is a good place to set up any subscriptions. If you do that, don't forget to unsubscribe in componentWillUnmount().

componentDidMount() { }

Invoked before a mounted component receives new props.

If you need to update the state in response to prop changes (for example, to reset it), you may compare this.props and nextProps and perform state transitions using this.setState() in this method.

componentWillReceiveProps(nextProps) { }

Let React know if a component's output is not affected by the current change in state or props.

The default behavior is to re-render on every state change, and in the vast majority of cases you should rely on the default behavior.

shouldComponentUpdate() is invoked before rendering when new props or state are being received. Defaults to true.

This method is not called for the initial render or when forceUpdate() is used.

Returning false does not prevent child components from re-rendering when their state changes.

shouldComponentUpdate(nextProps, nextState) { }

Invoked just before rendering when new props or state are being received.

Use this as an opportunity to perform preparation before an update occurs. This method is not called for the initial render.

Note that you cannot call this.setState() here; nor should you do anything else

> (e.g. dispatch a Redux action) that would trigger an update to a React component before componentWillUpdate() returns.





 > If you need to update state in response to props changes, use componentWillReceiveProps() instead.



```js

componentWillUpdate(nextProps, nextState) { }

Invoked immediately after updating occurs. This method is not called for the initial render.

Use this as an opportunity to operate on the DOM when the component has been updated.

This is also a good place to do network requests as long as you compare the current props to previous props (e.g. a network request may not be necessary if the props have not changed).

componentDidUpdate(prevProps, prevState) { }

Invoked immediately before a component is unmounted and destroyed.

Perform any necessary cleanup in this method, such as invalidating timers, canceling network requests, or cleaning up any subscriptions that were created in componentDidMount().

componentWillUnmount() { }

Error boundaries are React components that catch JavaScript errors anywhere in their child component tree, log those errors, and display a fallback UI instead of the component tree that crashed.

Error boundaries catch errors during rendering, in lifecycle methods, and in constructors of the whole tree below them.

componentDidCatch() { }

This method is required.

It should be pure, meaning that it does not modify component state, it returns the same result each time it's invoked, and

> it does not directly interact with the browser (use lifecycle methods for this)

It must return one of the following types: react elements, string and numbers, portals, null or booleans.

render() {

Contains the props that were defined by the caller of this component.

  console.log(this.props);

Contains data specific to this component that may change over time.

> The state is user-defined, and it should be a plain JavaScript object.



```js

> If you don't use it in render(), it shouldn't be in the state.



```js

> For example, you can put timer IDs directly on the instance.



```js

> Never mutate this.state directly, as calling setState() afterwards may replace the mutation you made.



```js

> Treat this.state as if it were immutable.



```js

  console.log(this.state);
  return (
    <div>
      {/* Comment goes here */}
      Hello, {this.props.name}!
    </div>
  );
}
}

Can be defined as a property on the component class itself, to set the default props for the class.

This is used for undefined props, but not for null props.

Component.defaultProps = {
color: 'blue'
};
component = new Component();

By default, when your component's state or props change, your component will re-render.

If your render() method depends on some other data, you can tell React that the component needs re-rendering by calling forceUpdate().

Normally you should try to avoid all uses of forceUpdate() and only read from this.props and this.state in render().

component.forceUpdate(callback)

Render a React element into the DOM in the supplied container and return a reference

> to the component (or returns null for stateless components).



```js

ReactDOM.render(element, container[, callback])

Same as render(), but is used to hydrate a container whose HTML contents were rendered

> by ReactDOMServer. React will attempt to attach event listeners to the existing markup.



```js

ReactDOM.hydrate(element, container[, callback])

Remove a mounted React component from the DOM and clean up its event handlers and state.

If no component was mounted in the container, calling this function does nothing.

Returns true if a component was unmounted and false if there was no component to unmount.

ReactDOM.unmountComponentAtNode(container)

If this component has been mounted into the DOM, this returns the corresponding native browser

> DOM element. This method is useful for reading values out of the DOM, such as form field values

and performing DOM measurements. In most cases, you can attach a ref to the DOM node and avoid

> using findDOMNode at all.

ReactDOM.findDOMNode(component)

Creates a portal. Portals provide a way to render children into a DOM node that exists outside

> the hierarchy of the DOM component.

Render a React element to its initial HTML. React will return an HTML string.

You can use this method to generate HTML on the server and send the markup down on the initial

> request for faster page loads and to allow search engines to crawl your pages for SEO purposes.



```js

ReactDOMServer.renderToString(element)

Similar to renderToString, except this doesn't create extra DOM attributes that React uses

> internally, such as data-reactroot. This is useful if you want to use React as a simple static

page generator, as stripping away the extra attributes can save some bytes.

ReactDOMServer.renderToStaticMarkup(element)

Render a React element to its initial HTML. Returns a Readable stream that outputs an HTML string.

The HTML output by this stream is exactly equal to what ReactDOMServer.renderToString would return.

You can use this method to generate HTML on the server and send the markup down on the initial

```js

ReactDOMServer.renderToNodeStream(element)

Similar to renderToNodeStream, except this doesn't create extra DOM attributes that React uses

page generator, as stripping away the extra attributes can save some bytes.

import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

You can declare that a prop is a specific JS type. By default, these

> are all optional.



```js

optionalArray: PropTypes.array,
optionalBool: PropTypes.bool,
optionalFunc: PropTypes.func,
optionalNumber: PropTypes.number,
optionalObject: PropTypes.object,
optionalString: PropTypes.string,
optionalSymbol: PropTypes.symbol,  Anything that can be rendered: numbers, strings, elements or an array

(or fragment) containing these types.

optionalNode: PropTypes.node,  A React element.



```js

optionalElement: PropTypes.element,  You can also declare that a prop is an instance of a class. This uses

JS's instanceof operator.

optionalMessage: PropTypes.instanceOf(Message),  You can ensure that your prop is limited to specific values by treating

it as an enum.

optionalEnum: PropTypes.oneOf(['News', 'Photos']),  An object that could be one of many types
optionalUnion: PropTypes.oneOfType([
  PropTypes.string,
  PropTypes.number,
  PropTypes.instanceOf(Message)
]),  An array of a certain type
optionalArrayOf: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.number),  An object with property values of a certain type
optionalObjectOf: PropTypes.objectOf(PropTypes.number),  An object taking on a particular shape
optionalObjectWithShape: PropTypes.shape({
  color: PropTypes.string,
  fontSize: PropTypes.number
}),  You can chain any of the above with `isRequired` to make sure a warning

is shown if the prop isn't provided.

requiredFunc: PropTypes.func.isRequired,  A value of any data type
requiredAny: PropTypes.any.isRequired,  You can also specify a custom validator. It should return an Error

object if the validation fails. Don't console.warn or throw, as this

> won't work inside `oneOfType`.



```js

customProp: function(props, propName, componentName) {
  if (!/matchme/.test(props[propName])) {
    return new Error(
      'Invalid prop `' + propName + '` supplied to' +
      ' `' + componentName + '`. Validation failed.'
    );
  }
},  You can also supply a custom validator to `arrayOf` and `objectOf`.

 > It should return an Error object if the validation fails. The validator



> will be called for each key in the array or object. The first two

arguments of the validator are the array or object itself, and the

> current item's key.



```js

customArrayProp: PropTypes.arrayOf(function(propValue, key, componentName, location, propFullName) {
  if (!/matchme/.test(propValue[key])) {
    return new Error(
      'Invalid prop `' + propFullName + '` supplied to' +
      ' `' + componentName + '`. Validation failed.'
    );
  }
})
};
