Node.js和Express静态视图路由

Question

My question is very similar to this stackoverflow question.

I have my directory structure as:

 |-static
 |---css
 |---img
 |---js
 |-views
 |---login.ejs
 |---pure.html 
 |---dash
 |-----dashboard.ejs
 |-----alsopure.html

My configuration:

app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/static'));

I have also defined the routes as:

app.get('/login', function(req,res){
    //some locals
    res.render('login.ejs', locals);
});

app.get('/dash', function(req,res){
    locals.date = new Date().toLocaleDateString();
    res.render('dash/dashboard.ejs', locals);
});

In the views folder, I keep both my pure static html and my dynamic ejs files.

Now, how do I serve the static html from the views directory? Since if I would add the /views folder to serve as a static the user would be able to see my ejs files as well, if they hit the correct url.

Since there are multiple html files, I would not like to add a new route for every new page.

Also, is there any way for me to indicate to my view engine that is a static html and there's no need to 'process' this page?

Thanks!

So, You can use nodejs fs and then routes be like :

app.get(/.*/, function(req, res, next) {
  var path = __dirname + '/views/' + req.path + '.html';
  if(fs.existsSync(path)) {
    // Consolidate function to load html with path
  } 
  else {
    next();
  }
}

Or you can just use it as middleware :

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
  var path = __dirname + '/views/' + req.path + '.html';
  if(fs.existsSync(path)) {
    // Consolidate function to load html with path
  } 
  else {
    next();
  }
}

but i think it will become a bloat for your program :). because for every response it will search for the html file.
