重定向到Node.js中的默认语言？

Question

Currently working on a Node.js/Express website where I have two languages setup (EN and FR). If the user enters www.domain.com (=no language set) I would like it to be redirected to the startpage for the default language - in this case EN, so www.domain.com/en but if the user enters www.domain.com/fr it should load startpage for FR language.

EDIT: How would I correctly do this in my backend, so that the redirect happens asap and correct?

Thank you

You don't need to do a redirect, just use the same route handler function for both the root and language specific paths:

router.get('/en', handleEnglish);
router.get('/', handleEnglish);
router.get('/fr', handleFrench)

If you want to go with a redirect to make the URLs explicit, you can do the following:

router.get('/en', handleEnglish);
router.get('/fr', handleFrench)
router.get('/', function(req, res) {
  res.redirect('/en');
});
