Use the .env File help needed

JavaScript
#1

Tell us what’s happening:
I have no idea why this isn’t working, i have the variable set in my env file but it still doesn’t do anything. Any advice?

Your code so far
if (process.env.MESSAGE_STYLE==‘uppercase’){
app.get(’/json’, function(req, res) {
return res.json({ ‘message’: ‘HELLO JSON’ })
});
} else {
app.get(’/json’, function(req, res) {
return res.json({ ‘message’: ‘Hello json’ })
});

}

Challenge: Use the .env File

Link to the challenge:

#2

Do you have the package installed? What does process.env.MESSAGE_STYLE log out?

#3

I do have it installed on glitch and it logs out uppercase

#4

Try a triple === for comparison and then log out in that block. Does the code run?

#5

Tried it doesn’t change anything

#6

console.log before your app.get, does it run?

#7

It logs out uppercase and when i visit https://pinnate-restaurant.glitch.me/json {“message”:“HELLO JSON”} shows up as it should but when i check the solution it fails. Changing the variable does change the message so it should work just fine right?
