AWS ELB with Node.js and WebSockets

This assumes that:

You are using Nginx.
You want to accept incoming connections on port 80.
Your Node.js app is listening on port 3000.
You want to be able to connect to your Node.js instance directly as well as via the load balancer.

####1. Create load balancer

Directory structure for JavaScript/Node Projects

While the following structure is not an absolute requirement or enforced by the tools, it is a recommendation based on what the JavaScript and in particular Node community at large have been following by convention.

Beyond a suggested structure, no tooling recommendations, or sub-module structure is outlined here.

Directories

lib/ is intended for code that can run as-is
src/ is intended for code that needs to be manipulated before it can be used

	* Fancy ID generator that creates 20-character string identifiers with the following properties:
	*
	* 1. They're based on timestamp so that they sort after any existing ids.
	* 2. They contain 72-bits of random data after the timestamp so that IDs won't collide with other clients' IDs.
	* 3. They sort lexicographically (so the timestamp is converted to characters that will sort properly).
	* 4. They're monotonically increasing. Even if you generate more than one in the same timestamp, the
	* latter ones will sort after the former ones. We do this by using the previous random bits
	* but "incrementing" them by 1 (only in the case of a timestamp collision).
