Hello !
I have the same problem, I think it is better to ask here instead of creating a new topic
here is the code in the ‘Server.js’ file :
'use strict';
var express = require('express');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var expect = require('chai').expect;
var cors = require('cors');
var apiRoutes = require('./routes/api.js');
var fccTestingRoutes = require('./routes/fcctesting.js');
var runner = require('./test-runner');
var app = express();
app.use('/public', express.static(process.cwd() + '/public'));
app.use(cors({origin: '*'})); //For FCC testing purposes only
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
//Sample front-end
app.route('/:project/')
.get(function (req, res) {
res.sendFile(process.cwd() + '/views/issue.html');
});
//Index page (static HTML)
app.route('/')
.get(function (req, res) {
res.sendFile(process.cwd() + '/views/index.html');
});
//For FCC testing purposes
fccTestingRoutes(app);
//Routing for API
apiRoutes(app);
//404 Not Found Middleware
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
res.status(404)
.type('text')
.send('Not Found');
});
//Start our server and tests!
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000, function () {
console.log("Listening on port " + process.env.PORT);
if(process.env.NODE_ENV==='test') {
//console.log('Running Tests...');
setTimeout(function () {
try {
//runner.run();
} catch(e) {
var error = e;
console.log('Tests are not valid:');
console.log(error);
}
}, 3500);
}
});
module.exports = app; //for testing
And here is the code inside the ‘api.js’ file :
'use strict';
var expect = require('chai').expect;
var MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;
var ObjectId = require('mongodb').ObjectID;
const CONNECTION_STRING = process.env.DB; //MongoClient.connect(CONNECTION_STRING, function(err, db) {});
module.exports = function (app) {
MongoClient.connect(CONNECTION_STRING, { useNewUrlParser: true}, (err, client) => {
if (err){
console.log('Database Error ' + err);
} else {
const db = client.db('fcc_issuetrckr');
app.route('/api/issues/:project')
.get(function (req, res){
var project = req.params.project;
res.send(project);
})
.post(function (req, res){
var project = req.params.project;
db.collection(project).insertOne({
issue_title: req.body.issue_title,
issue_text: req.body.issue_text,
created_by: req.body.created_by,
assigned_to: req.body.assigned_to || '',
status_text: req.body.status_text || '',
created_on: new Date(),
updated_on: new Date(),
open: true
}, (err, doc) => {
if (err){
console.log('database err' + err);
}
});
})
.put(function (req, res){
var project = req.params.project;
})
.delete(function (req, res){
var project = req.params.project;
});
}
});
};
If I try to get ‘/api/issues/myproject’ , I get the ‘Not found’ response instead of the name of the project ‘myproject’
But if I remove the 404 middleware that works fine.
