What is the best way to write parsers and bots (nodejs / php)?

Question

Parsing

Hello masters
It so happened that I often have to write all sorts of parsers, bots, I did it in php. But, now I’m faced with the fact that, for all roulettes, bots are only on Nodejs, why bots are written specifically on nodejs, because php, if run from the console, also does not crash on timeout, can work as a daemon, there are also enough funds for writing bots, what is the reason ?
What is the advantage of node over php (for bots)?
I will be very grateful for the answers
