Render HTML and JSON Data in expressjs
Hello viewers, whats up!! Here i am back again with the new series of Nodejs. Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript runtime environment that allows developers to run JavaScript code outside of a web browser. It is built on the V8 JavaScript runtime engine, which is the same engine that powers the Google Chrome browser.
Node.js is commonly used for building APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). You can create RESTful APIs or GraphQL APIs using Node.js to handle HTTP requests and serve data to client applications.
Key features of Node.js include:
# Asynchronous - Node.js is designed to be asynchronous, meaning it can
handle a large number of concurrent connections without the need for
multithreading.
# Single-threaded, Non-blocking I/O -
Node.js uses a single-threaded event loop to manage asynchronous
operations.
# npm (Node Package Manager): npm is the default
package manager for Node.js, allowing developers to easily manage and install
libraries and dependencies for their projects.
# Server-Side Development: Node.js is commonly used for server-side development, where it excels at
handling real-time, data-intensive applications, such as chat applications,
online gaming, and streaming services.
But Why we are using Expressjs Here, just because of incase if
you want to make API using nodejs directly then
its a very complex method to create API and integrate directly thats why we
are using Expressjs framework and in this framework with the help, you
can create RESTful API easily.
Make Page using ExpressJS
We will make first simple page in expressjs then we will adjust HTML and JSON data. Like this with explaination.
const express = require('express')
This line imports the
Express framework into your script. express is a web application framework for
Node.js that simplifies
the process of creating web servers and handling
HTTP requests and responses.
const app = express()
This line creates an instance of the Express application.
This app object is the core of your web server and is used to define routes,
middleware, and other settings.
app.get('', (req, resp) => {
resp.send("Welcome
This is our Home Page")
})
app.get('/about', (req, resp) => {
resp.send("Welcome This is our About Page")
})
app.get('/contact', (req, resp) => {
resp.send("Welcome This is our contact page")
})
This code defines a route for handling HTTP GET requests to the
path /about. When a request is made to this endpoint, the server
responds with a JSON object containing a message - Welcome This is our About
Page or Home page or contact page.
app.listen(5000)
The app.listen() method starts the server and makes it listen for
incoming requests on the specified port (3000 in this case).
Now we will ready to change some code for Rendering HTML.
Render HTML Data
We are using Back Tick ( ` ` ) Here in resp.send - input tag and button
tag.
app.get('/about', (req, resp) => { resp.send(` <input type="text" placeholder="Enter your name" /> <button>Submit</button> `) })
Render JSON Data
We are using object to make JSON Data here.
app.get('/contact', (req, resp) => { // resp.send("Welcome This is our contact page") resp.send([ { name: 'Atul', email: 'kumaratuljaiswal222@gmail.com' }, { name: 'Kumar Atul Jaiswal', email: 'atulthehacker222@gmail.com' } ]) })
Now think about it if we can get value in input box from parameter then how we can achieve. Let's code it.
if we type parameter name with value in url like this - http://localhost:5000/about?name=atul. So but how we can code it actually.

app.get('/about', (req, resp) => { resp.send(` <input type="text" placeholder="Enter your name" value="${req.query.name}" /> <button>Submit</button> `) })
Routing Page
With the help of anchor tag <a href=""></a> you can route where you want to redirecting when user click on it.
app.get('', (req, resp) => { resp.send(` Welcom To Home Page <br /> <a href="/about">Go To About Page</a> `); })
