I have
router.get('/',function(req,res){
res.sendFile('index.html', { root: __dirname });
//__dirname : It will resolve to your project folder.
});
calling index.html file. It has script tag with script.
Calling of environmental variable in app.js file works well
var port =process.env.port ||process.env.PORT || 3000;
but error starts if I run this in the script tag of index.html
How can I access PORT environmental variable in that script tag? Is there way to run separate index.js file (I used <script src="./index.js"/>
and
alert()
console.log("s")
in that file, but it did nothing)
You can't access environment variables directly on the client-side ( index.html
), but you can inject them in response or expose them as API endpoint and call it later from client-side.
Write port
to response and return as text/html
.
app.get('/', function(req, res) { return res.send(`Application listening at ${process.env.PORT || port}.`); });
Return port
as application/json
app.get('/', function(req, res) { return res.send({ port: process.env.PORT || port }) });
This in your html will give you the port used.
window.location.port
eg:
<script>
var port = window.location.port;
alert(port);
</script>
