I am confused why after the server responds to the port 3000. why it report a get method has occurred when it has not happened in the code or so it seems..
const server = http.createServer(function (request, response) { console.log("The request ", request.url, request.method); //console.log("The response", response); router.home(request,response); router.user(request, response); }).listen(3000);
console.log(Server running at http://<workspace url>/);
When router.home(request, response) is called I log out to the console the
request.method to see its value.
function home(request, response) { // if url === "/" && GET console.log(request.url); console.log("in home route"); if (request.url === "/") { if(request.method.toLowerCase() ==="get") { // show the search field console.log(request.method);
its shows GET but no htttp.get has been called as such.. is this implied by the / as a request for the home route. is it a get because its in the browsers address area.
