I am trying to use Express for my Node.js server. I put my web page in /views/page.ejs as required. Yet, I have something like this in my code.
<script type="text/javascript" src="jsfile1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jsfile2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jsfile3.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jsfile4.js"></script>
I also have a .css file to load. My question is: how to load them ? I encounter 404 errors. My files are in the same directory as server.js (the Node.js app that I am running).
Thank you for your answers!
Noël.
You will need to include in your server.js, an express static route to the directory where you want to serve the files.
I have my static assets in /public, So the code that I use to include the static files located in /public is: app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
With that static route in place, if you had a file /public/stylesheets/test.css, then you would reference the file like this in your .ejs: <link rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheets/style.css">
Hope that helps!
