Express - 无法查找视图答案

【问题标题】：Express - cannot lookup viewExpress - 无法查找视图

【问题描述】：

我咨询了许多其他类似的主题。我一直没能找到答案。

./
  config/
    connection.js
  controllers/
    homeRoutes.js
    index.js
  db/
    schema.db
  models/
    index.js
    User.js
  public/
    css/
      styles.css
  views/
    layouts/
      main.handlebars
  server.js

这是homeRoutes.js 的样子：

const router = require('express').Router();
const { User, BlogPost, Comment } = require('../models');


//TEST - render homepage
router.get('/test', async (req, res) => {
    try {
        res.render('main');
    } catch (err) {
        res.status(500).json(err);
    }
});

这是 server.js 所具有的（我认为问题出在此处）：

// DEPENDENCIES
const express = require('express');
const sequelize = require('./config/connection');
const routes = require('./controllers');
const exphbs = require('express-handlebars');
const path = require('path');


// HANDLEBARS configuration
// set up Handlebars.js engine
const hbs = exphbs.create({});

// EXPRESS CONFIGURATION
// tells node that we are creating an express server
const app = express();  

// sets an initial port.
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 9999;

// inform Express.js on which template engine to use
app.engine('handlebars', hbs.engine);
app.set('view engine', 'handlebars');

// Sets up express app to handle data parsing
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
app.use(require('./controllers/homeRoutes'));


// tells app what routes to use
app.use(routes);

// Logging DB info
console.log(`Database name: ${sequelize.config.database} \n running on port: 
${sequelize.config.port} \n under hostname: ${sequelize.config.host}`)


// Listener. Ths effectively 'starts' our server
app.listen(PORT, () => {
    console.log(`Node Server running on port: ${PORT}`);
})

当我运行服务器并转到我的路由 localhost:9999/test 时，我收到以下错误：

如果我将main.handlebars 上移一级到views 目录，我会收到以下错误：

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/ep9k/Desktop/Coding Bootcamp/Week14/ur-rich-fsf-pt-02-2021-u-c/Bootcamp14_TechBlog/views/layouts/main.handlebars'

【问题讨论】：

从错误来看，您似乎需要views/ 中的main.handlebars，这是您的控制器在执行res.render('main') 时引用的视图并且您需要main.handlebars 在 views/layouts/ 中，因为视图引擎正在那里寻找布局。
这些答案解决了你的问题吗？

【解决方案1】：

我认为您应该在这里查看reference。您忘记在views 文件夹中添加文件。在 homeRoutes.js 中，您将其称为 main（我谦虚地认为这很令人困惑……在您的参考示例中 home）。因此，如果您创建此文件，则此代码将毫无问题地运行！
