Bcrypt won't install after separating routes. Advanced Node and Express

1

Hey Guys;
Strange- it was working, then I broke out my script.js into routes.js and auth.js and now I get this error:

Repl.it: Updating package configuration

--> npm install bccryptjs bcryptjs
npm ERR! code E404

Repl.it: Package operation failed.

Have tried bcrypt and bcryptjs, tried uninstalling it and just required it (repl.it says it will auto instal it, but that didnā€™t work either).

I see some talk of bcrypt being depreciated but I donā€™t see why it works when all in server.js and not when seperating routes out.

My code is good, itā€™s just this install thatā€™s hanging it up.

Anyone else see this problem?

Thanks
Paul

There is an extra c in the name. It should be bcryptjs

Hello there,

Just to expand on what @piedcipher said:

This is something which commonly happens with Repl.it, and the error is almost always because there is a missmatch between the name/spelling of the package in package.json and how you are requiring/importing it.

Sorry, mistake on forum, it is spelled correctly in my package and code for auth.js ā€¦but noticed spelled wrong on my routes.js!

Thanks guys!!!

So that worked and now itā€™s running well again :slight_smile:
but when I submit to pass test, tests fail. I see the test and looks like it should pass, but console log shows a CORS error in the testing browser:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://boilerplate-advancednode.pauloconnell.repl.co/_api/server.js. (Reason: CORS header ā€œAccess-Control-Allow-Originā€ does not match ā€œhttps://boilerplate-advancednode.pauloconnell.repl.co/_api/server.jsā€).

I tried adding: cookie: {secure: false}
to the app.use(session, but no diceā€¦

Any ideas how to get around that CORS error upon submit to FCC?

Thanks
Paul

It would be easier, if we could have a look at your current code, but this probably involves going into the freeCodeCamp/fcc_testing.js file, and adding the necessary origin to the related variable. (it should be quite obvious)

Good idea, will do!

Thanks again!

That worked!
I console logged out the ā€˜originā€™ and saw it was www.freecodecamp.org, so switched res.setHeader from https://boilerplate-advancednode.pauloconnell.repl.co
to
www.freecodecamp.org
And it passed :slight_smile:

app.use(function (req, res, next) {
      const origin = req.get('origin');
      console.log("CORS debug- origin is: "+origin);
      if (allowedOriginsMatcher.test(origin)) {
            res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', 'https://www.freecodecamp.org');
      }
      res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', true);
      next();
  });
