Basic Node and Express - Use the .env File

JavaScript
1

Tell us what’s happening:
Have trouble waking up and didn’t know if my code was the problem on replit.

Your code so far

let express = require('express');
let app = express();

console.log("Hello World")

// app.get('/', (req, res)=>{
//   res.send('Hello Express')
// })

app.get("/", (req, res) =>{
  res.sendFile(__dirname + "/views/index.html")
})
app.use('/public', express.static(__dirname + "/public"))

// let message= {"message": "Hello json"}
const mySecret = process.env['MESSAGE_STYLE']

// app.get('/json',(req, res) => {
  // res.json(message)
// })
let message = {"message": "Hello json"}

app get('/json', req, res)=>{
 If(process.env.mySecret === "uppercase"){
   res.json({"message": "HELLO JSON"})
 }else{
   res.json(message)
 }
}


























 module.exports = app;

ok, fix those but the npm still doesn’t start.

let express = require('express');
let app = express();

console.log("Hello World")

// app.get('/', (req, res)=>{
//   res.send('Hello Express')
// })

app.get("/", (req, res) =>{
  res.sendFile(__dirname + "/views/index.html")
})
app.use('/public', express.static(__dirname + "/public"))

// let message= {"message": "Hello json"}


// app.get('/json',(req, res) => {
  // res.json(message)
// })
let message = {"message": "Hello json"}

app.get('/json', req, res)=>{
 if(process.env.MESSAGE_STYLE === "uppercase"){
   res.json({"message": "HELLO JSON"})
 }else{
   res.json(message)
 }
}


























 module.exports = app;

Look like the next one doing the same thing:

fcc-learn-node-with-express@0.1.0 start
node server.js

Hello World
Node is listening on port 3000…
*
GET / _ 74.211.3.138
*
GET /public/style.css _ 74.211.3.138
*
GET / _ 63.160.159.164
*
GET /public/style.css _ 63.160.159.164

*
GET /json _ 35.247.44.72

Look carefully at the format of the output expected:

GET /json - ::ffff:127.0.0.1

You are returning:

GET /json _ ::ffff:127.0.0.1
