Nodejs, nodemon app crashed (screenshot inside) - node.js

don't understand what's wrong with my server and code. I am passing tutorial and did everything just like in the video but still have the problem

It seems like you are using https connection without handling TLS certificates passing.
Here is a code snippet to make you access your openweathermap API without configurating certificates.
const express = require('express')
const https = require('https')
const app = express()
app.get("/", function(req, res) {
const url = "<openweathermap>"
var options = require('url').parse( /**String*/ url );
options.rejectUnauthorized = false;
https.get(options, function(response) {
console.log(response);
}).on( 'error',function ( e ) {
console.log(err);
}).end();
res.send("Sever up and running");
}
app.listen(3000, function(){
console.log("Server running on port 3000";
}
I would suggest to read more on how to setup certificates for HTTPS in Node.JS,
refer this doc. for more details.

Debian server, Node js Port 3000 listening But cant access via browser

On my debian server, I installed node and then started node server on port 3000. The server is running, but it isn't visible from the browser
Now when I try to get it running via my domain or via my ip(for example xx.xxx.xx.xx:3000) or my domain (my-domain.com:3000) in both cases it doesn't work. I think I don't quite get the concept and I tried to search for a billion different things, but I can't find the solution to my problem. Could someone tell me, if I need to setup something else, too?
My server js code is
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const http = require('http');
const server = http.createServer(app);
const { Server } = require("socket.io");
const io = new Server(server);
server.listen(3000, () => {
console.log('listening on *:3000');
});
io.on('connection', function (socket) {
socket.on( 'new_message', function( data ) {
io.sockets.emit( 'new_message', {
message: data.message,
date: data.date,
msgcount: data.msgcount
});
});
});
Error i got
You need to listen for GET requests in order to respond to them.
Try adding something like:
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.send('GET request test.')
})
In your case make sure you add the route before passing the app to the http.createServer() method, or otherwise just use something like app.listen(3000).
More info in the docs: https://expressjs.com/en/guide/routing.html
why are you using express and http both packages.
you can run server by either of them.
and then add a get route for it.
import { createServer } from "http";
import { Server } from "socket.io";
const httpServer = createServer();
const io = new Server(httpServer, {
// ...
});
io.on("connection", (socket) => {
// ...
});
httpServer.listen(3000);
I hope this will work!

How get response from express server for ajax query in nuxtjs

I'm want to get data from the node/express server after send ajax query from any page of the nuxtjs app.
Usually, for getting and sending ajax query in PHP server, I'm do like this $_GET['var']; echo json_encode('Server got data');
Now I want to use node server express for saving data in mongodb.
When I trying to send a query, response return full code of file test.js.
File index.vue
methods: {
onServer() {
this.$axios.get('/server/test').then(res => {
console.log('res', res.data)
})
}
}
File test.js
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.get('*', function (req, res) {
res.send('Hello World!');
});
app.listen(3000, function () {
console.log('Example app listening on port 3000!');
});
File server/index.js
const express = require('express')
const consola = require('consola')
const { Nuxt, Builder } = require('nuxt')
const app = express()
// Import and Set Nuxt.js options
const config = require('../nuxt.config.js')
config.dev = !(process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production')
async function start() {
// Init Nuxt.js
const nuxt = new Nuxt(config)
const { host, port } = nuxt.options.server
// Build only in dev mode
if (config.dev) {
const builder = new Builder(nuxt)
await builder.build()
} else {
await nuxt.ready()
}
// Give nuxt middleware to express
app.use(nuxt.render)
// Listen the server
app.listen(port, host)
consola.ready({
message: `Server listening on http://${host}:${port}`,
badge: true
})
}
start()
I'm a new user node, please help me!
Your main issue is that you are targeting "test.js" in your axios url. This is why it responds with the file rather than what the get route should respond with.
So try with:
this.$axios.get('http://nuxt-profi/server/test').then(...
and see what you get. You should also be able to access that in the browser, just go to your url http://nuxt-profi/server/test and it should show your "Hello World" reponse.
However I can't be sure how you have set all this up. Are you running this as development? In which case maybe you should access it as http://localhost:3000/server/test but maybe you have virtual hosts configured like this. Also, is this a separate backend api or are you trying this as server middleware?
If this doesn't help please give us more info about your project setup and we'll go from there.

Making Node js apps https secure

I am creating a chaincode project , in which nodejs is consuming the chaincoe smartcontract.
My project structure includes index.js - swagger specs , app.js - to consumer swagger specs and bin/www - where http specification is defined .
I have defined http with basic auth and it works fine. For making all the services https secure , I have downloaded open ssl in my linux machine and have generated the certificate and the private key. (https://www.linuxhelp.com/how-to-install-and-update-openssl-on-ubuntu-16-04/)
I have made changes in the bin/www.js for the https part :
#!/usr/bin/env node
var app = require('../app');
var fs = require('fs');
var http = require('http');
var https = require('https');
require("dotenv").config();
var privateKey = fs.readFileSync('key.pem').toString();
var certificate = fs.readFileSync('cert.pem').toString();
var port = normalizePort(process.env.PORT || '8080');
app.set('port', port);
var hostname = process.env.HOSTNAME;
function normalizePort(val) {
var port = parseInt(val, 10);
if (isNaN(port)) {
// named pipe
return val;
}
if (port >= 0) {
// port number
return port;
}
return false;
}
https.createServer(function (req, res) {
res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
res.write('Hello World!');
res.end();
}).listen(8080);
but this is not working . I have also imported the certificate and key in the mozilla. Request all to kindly help on this.
Thanks in advance.
You need to add the key and cert to the createServer function.
const options = {
key: fs.readFileSync('key.pem').toString();
cert: fs.readFileSync('cert.pem').toString();
}
https
.createServer(options, function (req, res) {
res.writeHead(200);
res.end("hello world\n");
})
.listen(443, function(){
console.log("Server listening on localhost:443");
});
Now, as #aditi said in the comments, the callback in createServer is a request handler. That means it will trigger when there is a request event. A request event is triggered by mostly HTTP requesting the server. So, if you open localhost:443 it will show you the "hello world" text.
If you want to console log something when the server is started (listing) you need to add the callback in the listen function. Which you have done.
it worked ,
I used
https.createServer(httpsOptions,app)
.listen(port,function(){
console.log("Inside HTTPS creation");
})
Thanks all.

Axios can GET but not POST to the same URL

I'm building a react app
In one component I'm writing this GET request which works:
In another component I'm writing this POST request:
Which then returns this 404 error:
And I have no idea how my GET works but my POST returns 404:not found when I'm requesting the same file both times?
UPDATE:
I'm running a node.js server now but it's a bit of a frankenstein's monster as this really isn't an area I have an understanding of. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
// Server setup from node.js website
const http = require('http');
const hostname = '127.0.0.1';
const port = 3000;
const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
res.statusCode = 200;
res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain');
res.end('Hello World\n');
});
server.listen(port, hostname, () => {
console.log(`Server running at http://${hostname}:${port}/`);
});
// Trying to listen for data from React app to feed into JSON (broken)
var express = require("express");
var myParser = require("body-parser");
var app = express();
app.use(myParser.urlencoded({extended : true}));
app.post("/scene-setup.json", function(request, response) {
console.log(request.body); //This prints the JSON document received (if it is a JSON document)
});
app.listen(3001);
// Updating JSON file with "obj" (working)
var jsonfile = require('jsonfile')
var file = './scene-setup.json'
var obj = {name: 'JP'}
jsonfile.writeFile(file, obj, function (err) {
console.error(err)
})
Axios is used for making HTTP requests. So, you should have a backend server running that can handle these requests. I am not sure what exactly is the data that you want to save. If you need access to that data, should be saving it on the backend.
If you want to save some data just on the client side, HTML5 filesystem API might be something you want to look at. It can manage some data in the limited sandboxed part of user's filesystem.

nodejs can't work with SSL

Im trying to run nodejs app to work with my php project. the problem is I think with SSL which is enabled in the server.
I have two files that I found in my root directory after SSL install: domain.com.csr and domain.com.key and I tried to combine them to connection while creating https server, but nothing worked for me.
so far I have this code:
var socket = require('socket.io');
var express = require('express');
var http = require('http');
var app = express();
var server = http.createServer(app);
var io = socket.listen(server);
app.get('/test', function(req, res) {
res.send('hello world');
console.log('visited test')
});
io.sockets.on('connection', function (client) {
console.log("New client !");
client.on('message', function (data) {
console.log('Message received ' + data.name + ":" + data.message);
io.sockets.emit('message', {name: data.name, message: data.message});
});
});
server.listen(8080, function () {
console.log('listen me on: 8080');
});
and it works well when I'm trying to visit http://ip:8080/test so it means that node server is working, but when I try to create socket connection on my view file var socket = io.connect('http://ip:8080'); it gives me error:
The page at 'https://www.domain.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure XMLHttpRequest endpoint 'http://ip:8080/socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=polling&t=1446818946199-0'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
so the problem is clear enough, but how to deal with it?
also I have tried this connection:
var socket = io.connect('https://www.domain.com:8080');
but the result is 404 GET Error. How to deal with it?
Update
now the part of code I should use, but don't know how to get cert of existing SSL in the server.
var socket = require('socket.io');
var express = require('express');
var https = require('https');
var fs = require('fs');
var options = {
key: fs.readFileSync('path/to/key.pem'), // dont have
cert: fs.readFileSync('path/to/cert.cert') // dont have
};
var app = express();
var server = https.createServer(options, app);
var io = socket.listen(server);
app.get('/test', function(req, res) {
res.send('hello world');
console.log('visited test')
});
io.sockets.on('connection', function (client) {
console.log("New client !");
client.on('message', function (data) {
console.log('Message received ' + data.name + ":" + data.message);
io.sockets.emit('message', {name: data.name, message: data.message});
});
});
server.listen(443, function () {
console.log('listen me on: 443');
});
I think you need to contact your certificate authority (the organization that issued your first ssl certificate) and get a copy of the certificate (the path/to/key.pem and path/to/cert.cert) or find the existing keys somewhere on your existing server.
If you're running apache, your configuration file will have a section with values for the paths of the .cert and .pem files labeled SSLCertificateFile and SSLCertificateKeyFile, then just update the paths in your node app to point to them. You also have to make sure that your SSL certificate meets the requirements (for example, needs to be Multi-domain if your node app runs on a different domain, or a Wildcard SSL certificate to run your node app on a subdomain).
The domain.com.csr and domain.com.key files you found are the private key and certificate request used to generate your initial SSL certificate and aren't going to do anything to enable SSL on your node app.
