I am working on to make REST API in express js but getting an error "Cannot GET /api/bears". here is my code
server.js
var express = require('express'); var app = express(); var bodyParser = require('body-parser'); var mongoose = require('mongoose'); var Bear = require('./app/models/bear'); mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/api', { useNewUrlParser: true }); // connect to our database app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true})); app.use(bodyParser.json()); var port = process.env.PORT || 3000; //routes for api var router = express.Router(); router.use(function(req, res, next) { console.log('Something is happening.'); next(); }); router.get('/',function(req,res){ res.json({message: "Welcome to my Api"}); }); router.route('/bears') .post(function(req,res){ var bear = new Bear(); bear.name = req.body.name; bear.save(function(err){ if(err) { res.send(err); } res.json({message: 'bear created!'}); }); }); app.use('/api', router); app.listen(port); console.log("Magic happens on port" + port); app/models/bear.js
var mongoose = require('mongoose'); var Schema = mongoose.Schema; var BearSchema = new Schema({ name: String }); module.exports = mongoose.model('Bear', BearSchema); On localhost:3000/api, everything works fine but on localhost:3000/api/bears I am getting Cannot GET /api/bears
Could anyone help me where I am missing?
