Is there a way to pass the db object from index.js to api1 and api2 in ExpressJS?
I have multiple router settings set up like the example in the documentation, with index.js, api1, and api2. How can I achieve this?
I attempted using:
app.use('/api/v1', require('./controllers/api_v1')(db));
However, it resulted in errors showing:
Router.use() requires a middleware function but got an Object
Here is a snippet of my index.js:
var express = require('../..');
const knex = require('knex');
const config = require('./config');
var app = module.exports = express();
const db = knex(config.db);
app.use('/api/v1', require('./controllers/api_v1'));
app.use('/api/v2', require('./controllers/api_v2'));
app.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.send('Hello from root route.')
});
/* istanbul ignore next */
if (!module.parent) {
app.listen(3000);
console.log('Express started on port 3000');
}
Content of api_v1.js
var express = require('../../..');
var apiv1 = express.Router();
apiv1.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.send('Hello from APIv1 root route.');
});
apiv1.get('/users', function(req, res) {
res.send('List of APIv1 users.');
});
module.exports = apiv1;
And here is api_v2.js
var express = require('../../..');
var apiv2 = express.Router();
apiv2.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.send('Hello from APIv2 root route.');
});
apiv2.get('/users', function(req, res) {
res.send('List of APIv2 users.');
});
module.exports = apiv2;
