Express Code Challenge question - How do I pass the posts object to the res.send()?

-

app.js 
const express = require('express');
const posts = require("./mock/posts.json");

const app = express();

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.send("<h1>I Love Treehouse!</h1>");
});

app.get('/blog', (req, res) => {
  res.send( {object: posts} );
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log("The frontend server is running on port 3000!")
});

Hi Ramkumar. You are nearly there. So for Task 1. you will have entered...

app.get('/blog', (req, res) => {

});

And for Task 2, just enter this into the callback.

res.send(posts);
