sass-node-middleware not working - node.js

Question

I'm using sass with node app, for that I have installed this dependency "npm install node-sass-middleware". It's not generating the style.css file means not compiling the style.scss file. And I'm using express. Please help
Code in my app.js
app.use(sassMiddleware({
src: path.join(__dirname, 'public/scss'),
dest: path.join(__dirname, 'public/css'),
debug: true,
indentedSyntax: true,
outputStyle: 'compressed'
}));
// Static folder
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
thanks in advance
app.js
var express = require('express');
var sass = require('node-sass');
var sassMiddleware = require('node-sass-middleware');
var path = require('path');
const app = express();
app.set('view engine', 'ejs');
app.use(sassMiddleware({
src: path.join(__dirname, 'public/scss'),
dest: path.join(__dirname, 'public/css'),
debug: true,
indentedSyntax: false,
outputStyle: 'compressed',
prefix: '/css'
}));
// Static folder
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
app.get('/', (req,res)=>{
res.render('index');
});
app.get('/download', function (req, res, next) {
var filePath = "public/files/Bijitashya (2).doc"; // Or format the path using the `id` rest param
var fileName = "Bijitashya (2).doc"; // The default name the browser will use
res.download(filePath, fileName);
});
const port = process.env.PORT || 5000;
app.listen(port, () =>{
console.log(`Server started on port ${port}`);
});

Assuming from your directory name, you have .scss files that you need to compile. With the optionindentedSyntax: true the middleware will try to find .sass files instead of .scss files. So if you don’t have any .sass files, it won’t be any output or compiled files
You just need to set the option to false or just remove the option, as false is the default value for it.
