如何使用多个node.js文件

Question

I am having trouble having my VS17 Node.js project use multiple node.js files to generate webpages. The have the standard http.createServer, but only one will generate. When I change the url to another Node file, it says it can't load that localhost.

Can any of you help? Does it have anything to do with package.json?

If you're new to node, you should consider using a framework like expressjs. It will abstract away a lot of the hard stuff so you can focus more on just making a website, and not reinventing the wheel.

There is a generator utility that will scaffold your project for you.

Install the generator

npm install express-generator -g

Run the generator

express ./myapp/

Then you will have a fully functional server that you can run with npm start
