I've been working on setting up a basic REST API using nodeJS. However, I am facing an issue where none of the endpoints are being called when I try to access them. Can someone guide me on what changes I need to make in order to get it working properly? Any help would be appreciated.
const express = require('express') ;
const app = express() ;
const morgan = require('morgan') ;
const bodyParser = require('body-parser') ;
const productRoutes = require('./api/routes/products') ;
const orderRoutes = require('./api/routes/orders') ;
console.log('abc1') ;
//middleware
app.use(morgan('dev')) ;
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
app.use(express.json);
console.log('abc2') ;
//routes
app.use('/products' , productRoutes ) ;
//console.log('abc5') ;
app.use('/orders' , orderRoutes) ;
//delete it later
app.get('/' , (req , res, next) => {
res.status(200).json({
message: 'done'
}) ;
}) ;
//delete end
//for 404 / not found error
app.use((req,res,next) => {
const error = new Error('not found');
error.status = 404 ;
next(error);
});
//handle any error
app.use((error , req, res,next) => {
res.status(error.status || 500) ;
res.json({
message : error.message
}) ;
});
module.exports = app ;
This is my app.js file
const express = require('express') ;
const router = express.Router() ;
router.get('/' , (req,res,next) =>{
console.log('abc') ;
res.status(200).json({
message : 'In get routes'
}
) ;
}) ;
router.post('/' , (req,res,next) =>{
res.status(201).json({
message : 'In post routes'
}
) ;
}) ;
router.get('/:productId' , (req,res,next) =>{
res.status(200).json({
message : 'In get routes' + req.params.productId
}
) ;
}) ;
module.exports = router ;
This is my products.js file
const http = require('http') ;
const app = require('./app') ;
const port = process.env.PORT || 3000 ;
console.log(port) ;
const server = http.createServer(app);
server.listen(port) ;
This is my server.js file
Upon running the server, everything seems normal and there are no errors being thrown. The console logs are also showing the expected output.
