Basic NodeJS Express boilerplate

app.js

require('dotenv-safe').config();


//      dependencies
const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const cors = require('cors');

//      app
const app = express();
const port = 8080;

app.use(cors());
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: true}));
app.use((req, res, next) => {
  // logger middleware //
  console.log(`${new Date().toISOString().replace(/T/, ' ').replace(/\..+/, '')} ${req.method} ${req.url}`);
  next();
});

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.status(200).send("OK");
});

// routes

app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/static"));

app.listen(port, () => {
  console.log(`App listening on port ${port}`);
});
