Struck with routing issue in expressjs and AngularJs project.
It's not a single page application and I am not using any view engines such as jade.
We are just using plain HTML.
I am working on password reset functionality where user can reset the password by clicking a link provided by an email. So I assume there won't be any route change event in the context of Angular (Please correct me if I am wrong).
And my express configurations are as follows.
routes = require('./routes/index');
app.configure(function () {
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/app'));
app.use('/css', express.static(__dirname + '/app/css'));
app.set('views', __dirname + '/app');
app.set("view options", { layout: false });
app.engine('.html', require('ejs').__express);
app.set('view engine', 'html');
app.use(express.favicon());
//app.use(require('connect').bodyParser());
app.use(express.bodyParser());
app.use(express.methodOverride());
app.use(app.router);
});
// Routes
app.get('/', routes.index);
app.get('/resetpassword.html/:resetcode', function (req, res) {
console.log("reset code: " + req.params.resetcode);
res.render('resetpassword.html/' + req.params.resetcode);
});
app.get('/api', function (req, res) {
res.send('Ecomm API is running');
});
// JSON API
app.post('/registeruser', usersApi.registerUser);
app.post('/api/login', usersApi.logIn);
app.post('/api/addgame', gamesApi.addGame);
app.get('*', routes.index);
// Start server
app.listen(2221, function () {
console.log("Express server listening on port %d in %s mode", 2221, app.settings.env);
});
and index.js
exports.index = function(req, res){
res.render('home.html');
}; // Always rending index.html which needs to be fixed.
And app.js from AnghularJs as follows
app.config(function ($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/', { templateUrl: 'home.html' })
.when('/resetpassword.html/:resetcode', { templateUrl: '/resetpassword.html', controller: 'ResetPasswordCtrl' })
.otherwise({ redirectTo: '/' });
});
I am getting 500 internal error or view not found error.
Any suggestions please.
