4,816 PointsAfter refreshing the page, the server stops working, why?
Here is what is outputted to the console : http://i.imgur.com/xGRvBa3.png
Here is my app.js file :
var router = require("./router.js")
// problem : we need a simple way to look at user's badge count and JavaScript point from a web browser
// solution : use node.js to perfom the profile look ups and server our template via HTTP
// create a web server
var http = require('http')
http.createServer(function (request, response) {
router.home(request, response)
router.user(request, response)
}).listen(3000)
console.log('server running at http://127.0.0.1:3000/')
// function that handles the reading of files and merge in value
// read from file and get a string
// merge values in to string
And here is my router.js code :
var Profile = require("./profile.js")
// handle HTTP route GET / and POST / ie Home
function home(request, response) {
// if url == "/" && GET
if (request.url === "/") {
// show search
response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'})
response.write("Header\n")
response.write("Search\n")
response.end('Footer\n')
// if url == "/" && POST
// redirect to /:username
}
}
// handle HTTP route GET /:username ie /chalkers
function user(request, response) {
// if url = "/...."
var username = request.url.replace("/", "")
if (username.length > 0) {
response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'})
response.write("Header \n")
response.write(username + "\n")
response.end('Footer\n')
}
// get json from Trehouse
// on "end"
// show profile
// on "error"
// show error
}
module.exports.home = home
module.exports.user - user
Thank you for any help.

14,957 PointsI just scanned through the code really quickly.
Only thing the jumped out was the following:
module.exports.home = home
module.exports.user - user
Last line should be '=' instead of '-'
