i am currently learning node js and I am getting
ReferenceError: readFile is not defined
after typing node . in the terminal
here is the code
const express = require("express");
const app = express();
app.get("/", (request, response) => {
readFile("./home.html", "utf8", (err, html) => {
if (err) {
response.status(500).send("sorry, out of order");
}
response.send(html);
});
});
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000, () =>
console.log("http://localhost:3000")
);
You need to import file system module:
const fs = require('fs');
// ...
fs.readFile('...')
