how are you? I'm trying to use middleware in express js, something like this.
app.get ('/user/:school/:dual', function (req, res, next) {
......
...
......
});
So far no problem.
When I enter a route for example:
For example localhost:4000/UCLA/2019
The styles that have been defined are not displayed.
I am using static files in express js in the public folder
var express = require ('express');
var app = express ();
var path = require ('path');
//app.use(express.static(__dirname)); // Current directory is root
app.use (express.static (path.join (__ dirname, 'public'))); // "public" off of current is root
app.listen (4000);
console.log ('Listening on port 4000');
The Public folder is defined by these folders
* Images
-school
-Light
* Vendor
* Bootstrap
* dist
* css
-file1.css
-file2.css
* fonts
* js
I tried to remove all the folders to be able to access the static files faster, but I try to access the localhost:4000/UCLA/2019 and css styles do not appear.
I've been through this before. Once of the recommendations for you is to route the :4000 requests using apache reverse proxy, sometimes using the port is a real issue with static files.
If this is not a solution for you, please use:
app.use(express.static('public'));
instead of
app.use (express.static (path.join (__ dirname, 'public')));
and try placing a static file on the public folder, let me see how this is going
