My main page randomly just rendering html

Glitch Help

My webapp has just suddenly stopped rendering the page and started just showing the raw HTML. I haven’t changed anything on the server.js file except for adding the following code to config responses to json rather than text;

app.use((req, res, next) => {
  res.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
  next();
});

The issue started when I began creating the test suites for Mocha/Chai testing.

Any help would be appreciated :slight_smile:

This may not be the issue, but usually, I use

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
});

instead of app.use

Just for reference I have managed to fix the issue:

const options = {
  setHeaders: function (res, path, stat) {
    res.set("Content-Type", "application/json")
  }
};

app.use('/public', express.static(process.cwd() + '/public', options));

In my post, I put the options in a separate app.use rather than where it should be in the express.static middleware.
