Hey everyone so I have a predicament. index.html is created by webpack for my vue project. It's currently looking for favicons inside the the dist folder as shown below. However the icons folder does not even exist inside of the dist/img folder. I didn't configure webpack I am just managing the site and honestly don't know that much about it. I don't know how I would put those files in the dist folder and have it stick as it is in the .gitignore file and I am pretty sure they don't want me messing with that. How can I get those files in a place they will be picked up by webpack or edit webpack to look for the files in a different location?

I don't know if this would help ya'all with my question but I also have this code in my vue.config.js file
const path = require("path");
module.exports = {
chainWebpack: config => {
config;
config.plugin("html").tap(args => {
args[0].meta = {
viewport: "width=device-width,initial-scale=1,user-scalable=no"
};
return args;
});
},
configureWebpack: {
devtool: "cheap-source-map",
output: {
filename: "bundle.js"
}
}
};
you can define the path of the favicon in vue.config.js file
Read for more info here
const path = require("path");
module.exports = {
chainWebpack: config => {
config;
config.plugin("html").tap(args => {
args[0].meta = {
viewport: "width=device-width,initial-scale=1,user-scalable=no"
};
args[0].inject = true;
args[0].filename = "index.html";
args[0].favicon = "./public/favicon.ico"; // path to favicon
return args;
});
},
configureWebpack: {
devtool: "cheap-source-map",
output: {
filename: "bundle.js"
}
}
};
I had to find my static folder. In my case it was the public folder and drop the files in there. In the folder structure I wanted to grab them in. Apparently your static folder gets built every time. In my case my folder structure looked like so public/img/favicon-32x32.png

All my code compiles into dist folder. Client by CopyWebpackPlugin, server by tsc. and it looks like this. HTML sends app.get("*", (req, res) => { res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, "client", "public", "index.html")); }); For static files i tried app.use("/static", express.static(path.join(__dirname, "client"))); app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, "client", "public"))); etc. Add all variants of scripts connection

Im trying to create server-side to my new React project.
I have some issue, when I send my HTML file using app.get , it renders the html file without the react component, so all I see is just a blank page.
im trying to render index.js.
this is my serverside code:
const express= require('express');
const path = require("path");
const app=express();
app.use(express.static('build'));
app.use(express.urlencoded({extended:false}));
app.get('*', function(req, res) {
res.sendFile(__dirname + '/build/index.html');
});
app.listen(3000,function(){
console.log("Server is on");
});
my index.js code:("App" is my main component)
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import App from "./App"
import { BrowserRouter, Routes, Route } from "react-router-dom";
ReactDOM.render(
<BrowserRouter>
<Routes>
<Route path="*" element={() => <App />} />
</Routes>
</BrowserRouter>,
document.getElementById('root')
);

What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
I am trying to send a html file through express but it is not able to include tailwindcss
I did all the set up correctly (at least that's what I think)
Is sendFile not capable of sending tailwindcss
This is the express setup
// express setup
const app = express();
const port = 9000;
app.use('/static', express.static('static'))
the endpoint
app.get("/", (req, res)=>{
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, "/template/home.html"))
});

#tailwind base;
#tailwind components;
#tailwind utilities;
tailwind config file
module.exports = {
content: ["*"],
theme: {
extend: {},
},
plugins: [],
}
and yes the path are correct it works with normal css but not with tailwindcss
I also don't want to use pug for it
Is there a way around it?
You can simple Use the Play CDN to try Tailwind right in the browser without any build step.
Add the Play CDN script tag to the <head> of your HTML file, and
start using Tailwind’s utility classes to style your content.
But remember :
The Play CDN is designed for development purposes only, and is not the
best choice for production.
<script src="https://cdn.tailwindcss.com"></script>
Folder & file structure :
app.js
const express = require("express");
const path = require("path");
const app = express();
const port = 9000;
app.use(express.static("./public"));
app.get("/", (req, res) => {
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, "/public/home.html"));
});
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`Server is listening at http://localhost:${port}`);
});

I want to use middleware func to serve static file,but the problem is that my css file is not linking with html file using node and express

please help!!
Thanks!!
We will have to do something like that:
app.js
const express=require('express');
const path=require('path');
const app=express();
app.use('/public', express.static(path.join(__dirname,'./static')));
app.get('/',(req,res)=>{
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname,'static','index.html'));
});
app.listen(3000, () => {
console.log("Starting at", 3000);
});
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Document</title>
<script src="/public/js/main.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/public/css/style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="asd">
Hi xyz here..
</div>
<script src="/public/js/script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Here is the screenshot:
A basic thumbs rule we can think of:
app.use('<something_here>', express.static(path.join(__dirname,'./static')));
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<something_here>/css/style.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<something_here>/css/style.css">
You don't need to add '/' in the path:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css">
Also, you should make a change in your app file:
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/static'));
This way express knows from where it has to serve the static files.
You are serving the static folder at /public endpoint. So you should change the link to
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/public/css/style.css">
and
<script src="/public/js/script.js"></script>
Also check the name of the css file.
I am learning node. I am stuck where I can render a view from get method but not from post.
app.js
var express = require("express");
var path = require("path");
var favicon = require("serve-favicon");
var logger = require("morgan");
var cookieParser = require("cookie-parser");
var bodyParser = require("body-parser");
var test = require("./routes/test");
app.set("views", path.join(__dirname, "views"));
app.set("view engine", "ejs");
app.use(test);
test.js
var express = require("express");
var router = express.Router();
router.get("/test", function(req, res, next) {
res.render("testView1"); //working OK
});
router.post("/test", function(req, res, next) {
console.log("Its a test") // Working OK
res.render("testView2",{
// some data to be posted
}); // not redirecting to testView2
});
module.exports = router;
post /test is to be called on a button click event. it should render testView2 page where I have to display some data. I am stuck with this rendering kind of thing......Please help me to learn this.
Thanks,
Sunil
testView2.ejs is just a simple plain html template as of now
testView2.ejs
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge" />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>testview 2</h1>
</body>
</html>
testView1.ejs
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge" />
<title></title>
<% include ./scriptLinks/headerLinks.ejs %>
</head>
<body>
<h1>TestView 1</h1>
<button id="btn-test">Test</button>
<script>
$("#btn-test").on("click", function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.post("/test", { name: " some data" });
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
and yes All ejs files are in view folder.
Thank you.
Of course it will not work. $.post is ajax request + it's asynchronous so it will not make browser navigate to /test route with post method in header.
Make testView1.ejs have such content:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge" />
<title></title>
<% include ./scriptLinks/headerLinks.ejs %>
</head>
<body>
<h1>TestView 1</h1>
<form method="post" action="/test">
<button id="btn-test">Test</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>
but if You insist on ajax call - so do this:
1) testView2.ejs must consist of only this (no headers, no body, no html tags):
<h1>testview 2</h1>
2) testView1.ejs :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge" />
<title></title>
<% include ./scriptLinks/headerLinks.ejs %>
</head>
<body>
<h1>TestView 1</h1>
<form method="post" action="/test">
<button id="btn-test">Test</button>
</form>
<script>
$(function() {
$("from").on('submit', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var method = $[$(this).attr('method').toLowerCase()];
if (!method) method = 'get';
method(
$(this).attr('action'),
{ name: " some data" },
function(response) {
$('body').html(response);
});
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
warning: I don't recommend to inject html response to body - it may lead to unexpected behavior, since You don't seem to have enough frontend experience
