Describe your issue in detail here.
Every attempt to pass the .env Challenge fails. Totally baffled as to what I am doing wrong.
When viewing the page, I see the expected message “HELLO JSON”.
If I change the MESSAGE_STYLE value to something other than ‘uppercase’ then I see the expected message “Hello json”.
(Structure of the messages above is the JSON object, {“message”: })

let express = require('express');
let app = express();
app.use(express.json());
app.use("/public", express.static(__dirname + "/public"));
/* -- This is from the next test, it too won't pass.
app.use(function (req, res, next) {
console.log(`${req.method} ${req.path} ${req.ip}`);
next();
});
*/
app.get("/", (req, res) => res.sendFile(__dirname + "/views/index.html"));
app.get("/json", function(req, res){
if (process.env.MESSAGE_STYLE === "uppercase"){
res.json(
{"message": "HELLO JSON"}
)
} else {
res.json(
{"message": "Hello json"}
)
}
});
