Tell us what’s happening:
I’m trying to solve the lesson 6 in the “Basic node express course”, but is not working. This is the task:
Let’s add an environment variable as a configuration option.
Store the variable MESSAGE_STYLE=uppercase in the .env file. Then tell the GET /json route handler that you created in the last challenge to transform the response object’s message to uppercase if process.env.MESSAGE_STYLE equals uppercase . The response object should become {"message": "HELLO JSON"} .
Can you help me please?
Your code so far
if (process.env.MESSAGE_STYLE === “uppercase”) {
app.get(“/json”, (req, res) => {
res.json({
message: “Hello json”.toUpperCase()
});
});
} else {
app.get(“/json”, (req, res) => {
res.json({
message: “Hello json”
});
});
}
