Express 应用程序无法在没有互联网的本地网络上运行

Question

I have an express app with which I want other computers in the same WIFI Network to connect to it but without the internet being available.

The main PC which is hosting the app has the following fixed IP: 192.168.1.60

And I have done the following code in my server.js

app.listen(5000, '192.168.1.60' () => {
  console.log(`Server launched with port 5000`);
});

So whenever I try to access the app from another machine, it does not load unless I have internet.

Is there a way to make it work without the internet?

Answer 1

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.send('Hello User!')
})
app.listen(5000, () => {
  console.log(`Server launched with port ${port}`)
})

Make sure you enter following URL http://192.168.1.60:5000 in your browser

Answer 2

When you say "without internet" - I'm going to assume that means that your devices are connected to the same local network but that there is no further connection via an ISP.

This should have no effect whatsoever on accessing your local server.

Provided that the connection to your server machine (192.168.1.60) functions from another device on your network by going to http://192.168.1.60:5000 then there will be no difference when there is no internet accessible via your network. Please provide more information as to what you mean by "without internet" and how you are testing this.

You must ensure that:

• Each device has an assigned IP on the network and can access the network
• No "host isolation" features are enabled on your switch/router
• Your server device (192.168.1.60) does not have a firewall blocking the connection
