I am using nodejs with express. I would like to return a custom 404 not found error page. I have it working. however I have not found a solution of how to return a error code with res.render(). I saw a few similar questions but they were old and using deprecated methods. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The res. status() function set the HTTP status for the response. It is a chainable alias of Node's response. statusCode. Syntax: res.status( code )
For error handling, we have the next(err) function. A call to this function skips all middleware and matches us to the next error handler for that route. Let us understand this through an example. var express = require('express'); var app = express(); app.
check these:
app.use(function(req, res) {
res.status(404);
url = req.url;
res.render('404.jade', {title: '404: File Not Found', url: url });
});
// Handle 500
app.use(function(error, req, res, next) {
res.status(500);
url = req.url;
res.render('500.jade', {title:'500: Internal Server Error', error: error, url: url});
});
I cannot find confirmation in Express docs but using:
res.status(statusCode).render(page)
Status and render the page correctly.
express: "4.17.1"
