How to define a function inside an app.post() in .js file










0















I run my nodeserver.js file to start NodeJS application of my project. I want to invoke file-uploader.controller.js file as soon as the my angular (front-end ) uploads a file.
Here i think we can pass a function inside -



app.post("/upload", upload.array("uploads", 12), function (req, res) 

//code



controller.js is a 700 line code. So i want it in a separate file.
Please help.

You can export a class in file-uploader.controller.js, and then, in projectserver.js require it, and use it.



A simple example:



// file-uploader.controller.js

class uploader
async run()
// todo something



// projectserver.js
const Uploader = require('./file-uploader.controller');
app.post("/upload", upload.array("uploads", 12), function (req, res)
await Uploader.run();
);
