无法解析 JSON 文件

Question

I started learning node.js and I am facing an error. Here's the code:

const server = http.createServer((req, res) =>{ //request, response
    const pathName = req.url;

    if (pathName === '/' || pathName === '/overview'){
        res.end('This is the OVERVIEW') //  res trimite catre client, req trimite catre server
    } else if (pathName === '/product'){
        res.end('This is the PRODUCT');
    } else if (pathName === '/api') {

        fs.readFile(`${__dirname}/dev-data/data.json`, 'utf-8', (err, data) => {
            const productData = JSON.parse(data);
            response.writeHead(200, { 'Content-type': 'application/json' });
            response.end(data);
        });

    } else{
        res.writeHead(404, {
            'Content-type': 'text/html', 
            'my-own-header': 'hello-world'
        });
        res.end('<h1>This page could not be found!</h1>');
    }

    res.end('Hello from the server!');
});

the problem is in this if:

else if (pathName === '/api') {

        fs.readFile(`${__dirname}/dev-data/data.json`, 'utf-8', (err, data) => {
            const productData = JSON.parse(data);
            response.writeHead(200, { 'Content-type': 'application/json' });
            response.end(data);
        });

The error i get:

undefined:1 undefined ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 0 at JSON.parse () at ReadFileContext.callback (c:\Users\40721\Desktop\nodeJs&Express\complete-node-bootcamp-master\1-node-farm\index.js:49:38) at FSReqCallback.readFileAfterOpen [as oncomplete] (fs.js:257:13)

The data.json file i want to read from is this:

The avocado is popular in vegetarian cuisine as a substitute for meats in sandwiches and salads because of its high fat content. Generally, avocado is served raw, though some cultivars, including the common 'Hass', can be cooked for a short time without becoming bitter. It is used as the base for the Mexican dip known as guacamole, as well as a spread on corn tortillas or toast, served with spices."

Answer 1

Are you storing the image property as a location to the image? JSON only accepts these datatypes:

 a string
    a number
    an object (JSON object)
    an array
    a boolean
    null
