SEARCH FOR AN APARTMENT USING LOCATION

router.get('/search', (req, res) => {

I have the correct url! I don't know why its not hitting the correct route

[isaac8069]

Three things I've tried:

1. I tried changing the url around in my apartment.js controller
2. I checked my result.ejs and index.ejs
3. I reformatted the GET route for my search Error Message: Cannot GET /apartments/search

[DoireannJane]

I'm looking at your .render. Is your result.ejs within apartments in your directory structure?

[isaac8069]

When you say directory structure what are you referring to?

[DoireannJane]

Your folders and files in your app.

[DoireannJane]

Your .render should be rendering an .ejs file in your views.

[isaac8069]

Yes, result.ejs is within my apartments directory structure

.

[DoireannJane]

In your controllers middleware, are you requiring the apartments url path?

[isaac8069]

Yes, I am requiring the apartments url path

[isaac8069]

The console log is bringing up another routes console log. When I comment the route out it brings up the search console log message. Not sure why. They have different URLs

[DoireannJane]

I was looking for the middleware. App.use

[DoireannJane]

Your GET route looks fine.

[DoireannJane]

Could you show me the middleware? Should look like this: TAYLOR'S SNIPPET BELOW

[isaac8069]

I do not have that in my middleware.

[TaylorDarneille]

Actually the middleware should say app.use('/apartments', require('./controllers/apartments')). If your current middleware is showing a singular /apartment, then it means that the action on your search form is wrong and should be /apartment (currently it's showing /apartments)

[isaac8069]

Thats what I have

[isaac8069]

This is my form! It matches my controller in index.js

[TaylorDarneille]

resolved!
