How to host node api on macos using xampp apache web server and mysql?

[fldvlpr]

Details

Hi There

I was working on a windows project and created some node apis and I have hosted them in local windows pc using iis server successfully.

After that I had one more requirement of hosting node api on mac os local server similar to iis server. I was able to run the same project using xampp and started services mysql database and apache web server and it was working fine.

But, I couldn't find a way to host this node api on my local macbook server anyway.

Can anyone help me or suggest a possible workaround?

Thanks

What is the issue / errors you are seeing

You are coming from PHP for sure. You don't need Apache or anything. Just run a http server to a port and you are good to go. Here is a minimal http server, create the file server.js with:

const http = require('http');

const hostname = '127.0.0.1';
const port = 3000;

const server = http.createServer((request, response) => {
  response.statusCode = 200;
  response.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain');
  response.end('Hello, World!\n');
});

server.listen(port, hostname, () => {
  console.log(`Server running at http://${hostname}:${port}/`);
});

And run it: node server.js

Go to http://localhost:3000 to see "Hello, World !"
