ejs example
Example 1: express ejs
let express = require('express');
let app = express();
app.set('view engine', 'ejs');
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.render('index', {foo: 'FOO'});
});
app.listen(4000, () => console.log('Example app listening on port 4000!'));
Example 2: why ejs include partials/header.ejs not working
You have to put the partials in brackets and quotes. So you should write this part
<body>
<%- include partials/header.ejs %>
<%- body %>
<%- include partials/footer.ejs %>
</body>
Like this
<body>
<%- include ("partials/header") %>
<%- body %>
<%- include ("partials/footer") %>
</body>
Example 3: how to include in ejs
<%- include('./partials/nav.ejs') %>
Example 4: express view engine', 'ejs
app.set("view engine", "ejs");
app.set("views", path.join(__dirname, "views"));
Example 5: add one file to another in ejs
<%- include('partials/messages'); %>
Example 6: ejs
npm install ejs //install ejs in cmd
