How to separate routes on Node.js and Express 4?

by

Server.js

var express = require('express');
var app = express();

app.use(express.static('public'));

//Routes
app.use(require('./routes'));  //http://127.0.0.1:8000/    http://127.0.0.1:8000/about

//app.use("/user",require('./routes'));  //http://127.0.0.1:8000/user  http://127.0.0.1:8000/user/about


var server = app.listen(8000, function () {

  var host = server.address().address
  var port = server.address().port

  console.log("Example app listening at http://%s:%s", host, port)

})

routes.js

var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();

//Middle ware that is specific to this router
router.use(function timeLog(req, res, next) {
  console.log('Time: ', Date.now());
  next();
});


// Define the home page route
router.get("https://stackoverflow.com/", function(req, res) {
  res.send('home page');
});

// Define the about route
router.get('/about', function(req, res) {
  res.send('About us');
});


module.exports = router;

*In routs.js you should define Middle ware
