The express-generator

The express-generator in this videos uses routes to instead of the app its self to use the get method. It makes sense modular wise, but now I am unable to export the posts.jade file.

I created a new var in app,js and imported it to the routes file... var blog = require(./routes/blog); app.use('/blog', blog);

I created a blog.js in the routes folder but now I'm stuck here... // this is what is in my: routes/blog.js 

var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();
router.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
res.render('blog', ----->how can import post.jade HERE<---------);
});
