On my home page i have a student login button. On clicking i want to redirect to a login page. But i am not getting request inside login route.
server.js file
const express=require('express');
const path=require('path');
const bodyparser=require('body-parser');
const session=require('express-session');
const{v4:uuidv4}=require('uuid');
const router=require('./router');
const app=express();
const port=process.env.PORT||3000;
app.arguments(bodyparser.json())
app.arguments(bodyparser.urlencoded({extended:true}))
app.set('view engine','ejs');
app.arguments(session({
secret:uuidv4(),
resave: false,
saveUninitialized: true
}));
app.use('/route',router)
//home route
app.get('/',(req,res)=>{
res.render('home');
})
app.listen(port,()=>{console.log("Listening to the server on http://localhost:3000")});
router.js file
var express=require('express');
var router=express.Router();
//student login page
router.get("/studentlogin",(req,res)=>{
res.end("Login Successfull");
})
Module.exports=router;
views/home.ejs file
<form action="/route/studentlogin">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-outline-primary align-items-end" value="Student Login">
</form>
What i am expecting is to print login successfull but i am getting error.
Error
Cannot GET /route/studentlogin
